Stone Cold Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Hoosier what I am doing I hunted Sat-AM and Sun-AM & PM and will go back in this Sat-AM and Sun-AM. I will not hunt afternoons due to the heat. They are still moving in the mornings! I need a doe bad due to freezer being empty! I watched 11 deer go under my other stand from 100 yards away! I was ready to cry! That was on Saturday so Sunday I went in and had three does at 25 yards but no shot provided. I will get one soon. I feel it!

hoosierhunter Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Man it's really slow over this way in Indiana. I Know we are getting a cold front coming through on Thursday thank goodness. I'll probably hit the woods then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stone Cold Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 I went out Saturday morning and had two come by. One was right before light and the other was a small buck that I had at 5 yards. The rest of my weekend is shot due to a bruised tendon in my draw hand. I thought I broke my wrist but glad that it is just a bruise/sprain. I will be back at it this coming weekend. Here is the little fella!

hoosierhunter Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 The crops are really flying off in my area in the last few days. We are getting hit with that slight cold front today as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierhunter Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 I hunted this evening and had a fricking monsoon come in. I had a doe at 10 yards for 20 minutes but I wasn't willing to shoot given that I didn't feel I could track her if she got out of sight.

hoosierhunter Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 Duck Season is here!!!! This is Hemi's first duck opener and I'm so pumped up. This excitement takes me back to when I was a kid and the night before gun season opened. As an added bonus I'm taking my dad duck hunting for the first time! It's pretty windy out there right now, but I could care less. I just want to see Hemi's first retrieve and dad's first duck. Wish us luck!!!

Ohiobucks Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Going to give it a go in the morning, haven't been out in a while. Finally some cooler weather, and the wind laid down.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUNTINGMAN Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 I made it out for just the second time this season today. It is the early muzzleloading season this weekend and I had to work Friday night so saterdays was a no go,I got out this morning sat until I thought the wind was going to blow me out of the tree and it's going to be 77 deg today. Man I wish we could get some cooler temps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoosierhunter Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 I was able to take a doe tonight. She's a big ole girl too. I think she will eclipse the 150 mark dressed out. I cannot check her in until the morning so I will post for the contest then. She never knew what hit her. She ran about 60 yards and turned around and took a tumble in the cut bean field.

hoosierhunter Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 I got her entered for the contest. I'm on doe patrol on two properties so it's a good thing that the contest doesn't allow multiple deer because IN gives a county limit with no agg on does and both these properties need deer removed and the county limits are 8 a piece. 1 down and only 15 more to go! I can say the smokepole will do some serious talking in late muzzleloader. I'll end up donating most of the deer to the local food pantry. Indiana has a good donation program to feed the hungry. I'm not much on donating money as I do not know how the funds are distributed, but food is my way of helping out. Hoosier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitteken Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Nice job Hoosier! We need to start putting some points on the board. Time just hasn't been on my side for getting in the woods. Hopefully this weekend I can bag a doe for 5 points and some tender loins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorden Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Only been out once in the last couple weeks. Temps were warm all last week, then it got cold but extremely windy. Not a lot moving on cameras either. Have found a few rubs and scrapes so gonna try and get out this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoosierhunter Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 Well I got my second doe last night. She was slightly quartering to at 30 yards. I thought I made a perfect hit, but upon inspection of the arrow it was milky brown and I could not find anyblood so I left her overnight and returned this morning. That was a mistake. I actually smoked this doe and I was looking in the wrong cornrow for the blood. She only made it 125 yards. It was a lung/liver hit. Here's what the yotes left for me.

hoosierhunter Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 I hunted my new property for the first time today. We have purposely stayed off this until now. It's 170 acres that hasn't been hunted in 30+ years. We didn't even run trail cameras on it until starting with one on 10-12. I pulled that card today and we have two 5.5 year olds on camera. I had one of them underneath me at literally 2 steps this morning prior to shooting light for 15 minutes. On the evening hunt my hunting partner had another shooter that wasn't on camera come in to 60 yards before flaring off. I had the 140's main frame 11 with kickers this morning. We also have a main frame 150's 10 with dual split brows. The last buck seen this evening is a 160's clean 10 that's about 21 wide. Needless to say we are extremely excited to pursue these deer!

Stone Cold Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Well, with as little posts as you been seeing from me it has been a rough year so far. Not seeing any deer. I went in last night to find three people shooting all sorts of weapons on the property south of me. That did not go good at all. I hope that my luck turns around today since I am on vacation now!

Jorden Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Hunted saturday morning and only saw a spike. Last night I hunted near a cut bean field adjoining our property. THe neighbor was sitting on the other side of the field last wednesday and saw a huge buck following some does. Last night I saw 8 deer but only one buck. Things seem like they are picking up around here based on camera pics and scrapes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
