Sorry about your tough luck! Get back out there after the next one!

I agree with Etan. Hard to get mad at him when you told him it was OK to hunt! Any body can miss and make a bad shot. I would just want to make sure he exhausted all efforts in finding the deer and he not only took the hunting seriously but he realizes just how much effort should be spent looking for them after you hit one. If that is not an issue, can't be mad.

Great job! Those are numbers one can't argue with!

Great Job! Way to be aggressive and use that grunt call!

Best of Luck. I'm heading that way on the 13th. Leave a big one for me!

Congrats! Nice Buck. Great pictures to.

Thanks for sharing. Great story.

They look great! Nice arrows.

Sounds like some great memories were made!

any Luck yet?

Massive Rack! Great Buck. Congrats.

Great Job! She'll eat good.

At some point you will have to decide whether or not he busted you in the stand. If it takes a couple more hunts in the same place with no luck, so be it. The rut is coming on hard. Your season is hopefully will even get better. Stay or move; maybe do both. Hunt! Good Luck!

Darton man, where can you get those scents like that?

Congrats on a great trip. I look forward to the day when I can take my daughter!

The head of the Wacissa River is what I was told. This river is not very big either. It is fairly remote though. Just west of Tallahassee. I was told that this was not the new record but its not to far off.

I have .270 and used it most my life. I got a TC Encore .308 and I love it. Packs a much bigger wallop. Shot many deer with a .270 and did fine. Sometimes tracking could be an issue with a not so perfect shot. .308 is my new favorite.

This gator was taken about 30 minutes from my house. Thats what I call a bull gator.

ATV's are like guns. It's the person behind them thats the problem. Sounds like you got a couple delinquents that have no fear of authority. Good Luck. I don't think I would have any patience. Sounds like you bent over backwards trying to get them to stop. I wish the parent would have done a lot more than help recover your camera...Throw the book at them!

Congrats to your brother for a great deer and having a great brother!

Nice job!

Time is my biggest obstacle when it comes to hunting. I had a meeting get moved this morning so I decided to slip out for a couple hours. I had been drawn for a public land hunt this week so I went there this morning and a truck was parked a little to close to my liking. Considering it was 77 degrees with humidity at 211% I decided to go back to my little tract I have permission to hunt. I could just slip up in a ladder stand and not have to tote my climber in and set it up like I would on the public land. This was my third hunt this year and the little field as I call it isn't great place to hunt but there are some deer including a few basket rack bucks that I have refused to draw a bead on. I was hoping for a shot at a Doe. Right after I killed my 34th mosquito I caught movement behind me and to the left. There she was looking dead at me at 25 yards. I had fairly good cover so I stayed calm and waited her out. She almost even got on her back legs to get her nose even higher in an attempt to confirm her suspicions. After a 5 minute stallmate she began to meander off. She went behind a tree to my left. Finally after my second draw, she gave me a broadside shot at 35 yards. She positioned herself nicely in front of a whorled pine that I had ranged at exactly 40 yards. I sqeezed it off and she bolted. As she was running, I saw a big red spot marking my shot;slightly high but getting both lungs. I have never seen that much blood before watching a deer run off. She piled up 70 yards away, a stones throw from the property line. This was my first shot with a RAGE broadhead and I can assure it won't be my last. I had been practicing out to 50 yards and it really paid off, making the 35 yards no problem. The shot was a complete pass through and the arrow stuck firmly in the ground on the other side. I really wanted to break the ice before I went to Ohio. Well, thank the Lord. Now if only Georgia could upset Florida this weekend. I think I better stop while I'm ahead! Iv'e taken plenty of deer with my Bow but it's been a while and it feels good to be back in the fold.

A long time ago there was a scent company that had a waxy consistancy in the form a deodorant stick. I had good luck with it rubbing it on a log etc during Bowseason. Anybody use anything like that now? What I liked about it was you didn't waste anything. I seemed to get more bang for my buck! Thanks

Great Shot and Great Footage. Quite a feat by yourself. Congratulations!

Great info! Thanks
