Re: Another future trophy HE'LL BE A DANDY IN A YEAR OR TWO.LOOKS GOOD FOR A YOUNG BUCK!

Re: Illinois - I am ready ........ IF THE WEATHER IS COOL IT SHOULD BE PRIME TIME FOR HUNTING.IT IS THE WEEK BEFORE OUR SHOTGUN SEASON OPENS AND OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS IT SEEMS TO BE THE PEAK OF THE RUT AROUND HERE.I PLAN ON HUNTING ALL WEEKEND NEXT WEEKEND,AND IT'S SUPPOSE TO COOL OFF QUITE A BIT BY THE WEEKEND.GOOD LUCK!HOPE YOU BAG A BIGGY.

Re: Illinois Public Land Bowhunting Question IT'S TUFF TO GO IN ON PUBLIC LAND WITHOUT SCOUTING AND FIND THE BIG BOYS IN A FEW DAYS.I WOULD SUGGEST AN OUTFITTER IF YOU DONT HAVE A COUPLE OF WEEKS TO SPEND.THERE IS A LOT OF GOOD PUBLIC LAND THAT HOLDS A LOT OF GOOD DEER,BUT IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME TO FIND THEM AND COME UP WITH A SETUP TO BAG ONE.

I WOULD TRY TO FIND A BUDDY TO DROP ME OFF AND WALK IN.I DONT THINK THE DEER WILL SPOOK FROM THE TRUCK,BUT THE MIGHT WHEN THE TRUCK TURNS OFF AND YOU GET OUT.

Re: Stolen \"Buddy\" stand %*$#@ THAT'S A BUMMER.IT HAPPENS MORE THAN PEOPLE THINK.I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY CUT THE TOP OF THE TREE OFF TO STEAL IT.I HAD A STAND STOLEN OFF PRIVATE PROPERTY A FEW YEARS AGO AND I ONLY LEAVE MY CLIMBER STAND OUT IF I WILL BE HUNTING OUT OF IT THE NEXT DAY,AND I STILL USE A LOCK ON IT.I DO LEAVE MY LOC-ON STANDS UP ALL SEASON WITH LOCKS ON THE LADDER AND STAND.IT'S AMAZING WHAT SOME PEOPLE WILL DO.

Re: My ML Buck WHAT A BUCK!HE'LL MAKE A SWEET MOUNT.

Re: got a buck this morn.... CONGRATS ON A GREAT HUNT!SOUNDS LIKE A PERFECT DAY OF HUNTING WITH YOUR GRANDSON.

Re: My very first deer NICE BUCK!THAT WILL GET YOU HOOKED FOR SURE.SOUNDS LIKE A GREAT DAY OF HUNTING!

Re: got another buck \"pic\" THATS A BIG OLE 6 POINTER!HE'S A TROPHY FOR SURE!CONGRATS.

Re: Am I screwwd or just need to give it time IF THE WIND IS RIGHT I WOULD KEEP HUNTING THAT STAND.SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD SPOT AND IT SHOULD ONLY BE A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE YOU GET A SHOT.

Re: My buck NICE BUCK!SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE A GREAT WIFE.CONGRATS ON THE DEER AND GOOD LUCK WITH THE LITTLE ONE!

NICE!I WISH MY BOSS THOUGHT THE SAME AS YOURS.CONGRATS TO BOTH OF YOU.

Re: Climbing Treestand API vs. Summit SUMMIT!I BORROWED A FRIENDS API TO TRY IT OUT BEFORE I MADE A DECISION ON BUYING A STAND,AND IT WAS ALRIGHT.MY SUMMIT IS GREAT!IT PACKS NICE,GOES UP EASY,AND IS THE MOST COMFORTABLE STAND I HAVE EVER USED.

Re: Finally caught my dream buck!!! PIC SWEET!SEEING A PIC LIKE THAT WILL GET A GUY PUMPED UP.I THINK HE WOULD SCORE IN THE 160'S.GOOD LOOKING DEER.GOOD LUCK BAGGING HIM!

Re: my dad\'s nice buck ( pic ) CONGRATS TO YOUR POP!!THAT LOOKS LIKE A HECK OF A BUCK!

Re: Best time to use certain calls? I WILL BLEAT ALMOST ALL SEASON,AND RATTLE AND GRUNT DURING THE PRE-RUT AND THE RUT.I HAVE HAD SUCCESS USING ALL THREE AT THE SAME TIME DURING THE RUT.I DONT KNOW IF ITS RIGHT,BUT IT WORKS PRETTY WELL FOR ME.

Re: I GOT MY BOW BACK!!!!!!!!!! GOOD DEAL!!THAT WOULD BE A REAL BUMMER TO NOT GET IT BACK.SOMETHING FISHY ABOUT THAT STORY THOUGH.NOW YOU CAN REALLY ENJOY THAT NICE BUCK!

Re: baiting ? BAITING IS ILLEGAL IN ILLINOIS, AND IT IS FINE WITH ME.THEY HAVE OUTLAWED ANY FEEDING OF WILD DEER HERE TOO,BECAUSE OF CHRONIC WASTING DISEASE.I USED TO PUT OUT CORN AND BUCK GRUB,OR FEED AFTER THE SEASON THRU SPRING FOR DEER THAT WERE WORN OUT FROM THE RUT,AND FOR PREGNANT DOES AND THE FAWNS,BUT I'M NOT ALLOWED TO DO IT ANYMORE.

Re: Illinois Rut Question I'M GETTING PUMPED!I'LL BE HUNTING IN MADISON COUNTY THIS WEEKEND AND MONTGOMERY COUNTY NEXT WEEKEND.SOUNDS LIKE THINGS ARE GETTING FIRED UP AROUND THESE PARTS!

Re: Big 11 Point Buck (pics) NICE!!THAT THING IS A PIG.I CAN'T WAIT TO GET OUT THIS WEEKEND.LOOKS LIKE THE RUT IS HEATING UP!

Re: man i hate missisng exceptionaly on big bucks I GET THE FEVER PRETTY BAD TOO.AT LEAST IT WAS A CLEAN MISS AND YOU MIGHT GET ANOTHER CRACK AT HIM.

Re: look out CONGRATS!!SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE A GREAT FAMILY AND AN UNDERSTANDING WIFE!

Re: Funny video!! thats good stuff!!

Re: First doe! CONGRATS!THATS A BIG OLE' DOE.

Re: Do you really hold out for the big ones? I USUALLY FILL THE FREEZER WITH DOE MEAT.I WILL PASS ON A 1 1/2 YEAR OLD BUCK,BUT I HAVE A HARD TIME PASSING UP A PERFECT SHOT ON A 2 1/2 YEAR OLD 8 OR 10 POINT.I SUPPOSE AS I GET OLDER THAT WILL CHANGE SOME AND ALREADY HAS A LITTLE.MY FIRST FEW YEARS I SHOT WHATEVER I COULD MOSTLY BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT I WAS DOING AND DIDN'T SEE AS MANY DEER.
