This darn warm, down right hot weather, for October kinda sucks. It isn't very condusive to putting venison in the freezer. Its hard to not stink by the time you walk to your stand. I'm for the most part staying out of the woods so as to keep things less pressured. Hope it works when the weather changes and the deer start prerut.

Yeah its warm here too. Got all our plots planted yesterday, I did get in the stand for a while, but a stupid hound was running something all around me and I didnt see squat. Sorry I didn't enter either of the does for points guys, but I never have entered one since you can only enter one deer. If I don't enter something with bone on its head by Jan 31st you can guess either I am hospitalized or dead lol.

I think if you shoot a doe at least put it on the board for us or why be on the team? what if you get skunked? may not happen but you never know. And if you dont put your doe on the board why tell us about it? I am not trying to make you mad just hoping this might motivate you to enter you next doe for the team is all, please dont get upset with my post. Thanks Sean

Your point is well taken, I'll post up the next thing I get. I've just always pushed taking my limit of does (and usually bucks) which is 8 deer a year down here, and have never bothered entering a doe on the RT contests. But whatever I swack next will be entered! :D

Hi Guys:

Been busy with Wyoming antelope. Archery opened Oct 1st, however, it's been much too warm. Early muzzleloader opens Saturday Oct. 15 and goes through Sunday Oct 22. That gives me 9 days to harvest a buck (150 inches or greater or a really nice 8 in the 140's). One of my clients has seen a 10 and a 12 point hanging together and I have a treestand and a ground blind set up in that area. If that doesn't work maybe a nice doe. After that it's in the tree for archery that goes into early December.

good luck to all

The weather is turning and the scrapes are beginning to appear. Gonna get a couple scent drippers out and place the cameras on them. I figure I will hunt the afternoons of Oct. 23-29th by sneaking out of work early and then a week of vacation that first week in November. Some Golden Estrus, a True Talker grunt tube and a decoy are my game plan.

Saw three nice bucks this weekend with one being a for sure 2 1/2 and the others possible 3s. The one was a high racked narrow 8pt that was pretty aggressive toward the other deer out in the alfalfa. The other two were still pretty docile and mingled well. However, when I was climbing down my tree, I heard two of them going at it across the field. This week should usher in some social changes I think.

I can not remember how this contest is scored. Do they score all team members or just the highest 5 or 6 on the team. Thanks in advance.

good luck to all

Good Luck.

Not sure if there's time for me this weekend to get out to do any scouting. Its been windy and rainy here the last couple of days and we now have a leaky roof that needs tending. :(

Rifle season is just 2 weeks away so I need to get things done before going away for that week.
