Corey just talked to the landowners. They had some guys hunting a week ago. The guys killed a 33" mule deer not far from where they will be hunting. Hopefully he has a brother or Dad in there.

What a stud and awesome story. Congrats Abby! Can't wait to get home to watch the video. Stupid work filter doesnt like youtube.

pinkish red gunk, sounds like lung. That deer is dead and not far from the last place you saw him. Under 150 yards I would say.

Got to camp and starting to get everything set up.

The guys are making a plan now and are going to head to the horse shoe this evening. Hopefully its a lucky horse shoe for them.

Nothing else showed after those two bucks this morning.

hmmmm....No word in the past couple of hours. Normally this means one of two things with Tim. He is covered up with deer and can't text or he's frustrated about something. I try to not text him much just in case he's covered up. The last thing I want to do is have his phone vibrate while touching some part of the stand and having it echo in the woods. Or have him drawn on a deer, getting ready to release and have his chest vibrate, tickling him, making him laugh, pull the shot, miss the deer and get mad. I would not be able to stop laughing if that did happen though. Hopefully he checks in soon.

One more pic. Trying to get Corey to play with the picture settings on his phone and me playing with mine as well. I think we have it down now between us and they are coming out decent. Here is another River bottom pic.

I might need a copy as well. I dont see myself being able to stay up. Now that is duck season, I am hitting the bed around 8:30 to get up at 2:30-3 every morning. I feel like an old man, laying down that early, but it sure does feel good!

they just spotted a big group of deer in one of the river bottoms, they groupd held one good 3x3 that they may go after opening day.

Another river bottom to be hunted.

One of the river bottoms they will be hunting.

Nice fall colors.

One of the corn fields he will be hunting. Half cut half standing.

Two bucks just came in cautiously. Both small, an 8 and a 10 pt. Turned to the left and walked off.

2 more does walking by. Hopefully the big boys are following them.

Tim's in the tree. Has the decoy out at 23 yards and has already had two does come by. We shall see what happens.

No break needed here. I treat this as a job to get the information from the field to the web for all to enjoy and follow as quickly as possible. But help as you please, it's all good.

Still going strong here. I think this week is the week I hit the no weight loss wall. I am sticking to the diet good and excercising great but no weight loss as of this morning. We will see what Monday brings and then change up my diet and routine if I need. I want to be 225 not this monday but next and then 215 by Christmas. The thing that is going to be tough is the week after Thanksgiving. I cant afford to fly home for Thanksgiving this year, but the Monday after, the company is sending me to Vegas for a conference. Its going to be hard to not eat a lot. I will be drinking though so I expect to gain a pound or 5 back that week.

If I cant be there with the guys hunting, this is the next best thing. I think I need a job with RT doing online live hunts for all the Pro Staffers of RT.....hmmmm.......TIM!!!!.......I need a recommendation letter to send to Bill. Buckee, I could be onto something here. edit: What will be awesome is come Friday and/or Saturday there should be three live hunts going on, with three different animals, Whitetails, mule deer and Elk. It's getting exciting.

He's on the road right now. Going to stop in Farmington NM tonight to get a room. First thing in the morning they will head to camp to get everything set up and unpacked. Friday is going to consist of scouting and tying up all the loose ends. Saturday is opening day of season. The camp where they will be staying is Southwest of Durango in the Redmesa area.

Very good show! It makes me miss 'home' though

Tim is pumped up! Had a great evening on the stand. Saw 4 or so does and 4 bucks. 1 good shooter and the other just a tick small. The bucks are chasing the does and it seems like its about to get hot and heavy. Tim is actually going to hunt the same set in the morning. He normally would not hunt a spot this much, but their set up is perfect. They come into the stand from the back side. No deer has crossed their path yet. They are all coming out from the front and hanging out around 25 yards, well all but the big boy. The deer have no idea they are there. In the morning Tim plans to set out his decoy to try and get the big boys attention. The guys have been getting good pics all over the property of great bucks but its a picture here a picture there and Tim told himself he is not going to chase the pictures this year. If it doesn't work out in the morning, they will try and new set in the "horse shoe" field. The weather is showing a slight cold front coming through tomorrow and Friday so hopefully all the pieces of the puzzle come together. untill the morning........ Good luck buddy! Oh, the guys are sitting down to a huge spread of home cooked food from Clint's mother (I think that's who Tim said was cooking). They are not working, they are on vacation!

On the phone with Tim now....

Tim had a nice shooter 9 pt 80 yards away. The wind held the sound from the grunts down so the deer never heard them and responded. Once this guy left, does piled through with a buck on their tails a minute later. Come on big boys!
