VABuckSlayer Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 This past Sat I had a real close call with a big 10pt. He also had stickers off both G-2's. I needed him 10 yards closer to get a clear shot (he was already at 35 and coming to me) but the darn wind shifted on me and he busted me and went back in the thicket. Made me sick because I had that buck dead. Was coming in on a string until that happened. I'm going to try him again this coming Sat. Hopefully get a better result.

hoosierhunter Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Team 5 - Dropin' Tines Now for the bad news. I shot under a brute Friday morning. . I just misjudged yardage. He didn't know what happened which is good. I think it might have been splitter but I'm not positive. I just know it was a 160+ class probably 5.5.

hoosierhunter Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 Another great hunt. I passed this guy tonight. He's only 3.5 but a beautiful deer. My scorer buddy has seen all the pics of him and puts him in the low 140s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VABuckSlayer Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Nice buck Hoosier but agree he's a great 3 1/2 yo. I saw 7 bucks last Sat morning but no shooters. The golf course property is finally picking up. My buddy said over night the bucks have tore up the place and he had 2 nice bucks fighting in a food plot Mon night. Things are starting to pick up and I'm so ready to put one on the ground! Just need this warm weather to get out of here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierhunter Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Va anymore pics of the 8? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VABuckSlayer Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Va anymore pics of the 8? No more but my buddy moved his camera. Nobody has seen that buck so far but I think he is still around. No need for him to go anywhere. Plenty of what he needs where he's at. I hunted him Sat but the deer just didn't move. I'm hopeful with the cool temps the rest of the week and our smokepole season coming in Sat maybe he will show up in daylight hours. Should be good later this week into next week!

hoosierhunter Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Team 5 - Dropin' Tines I will be hunting hard this weekend again and then I leave next Friday for 8 days on my Kansas lease. I did get pics of 3 shooters since Oct 29th including my top two deer. Man I love this time of year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VABuckSlayer Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Great looking buck RackBlaster! Congratulations man! That will help the team! Our smokepole season comes in tomorrow for 2 weeks. The bucks are starting to cruise a little bit now. I think it will really open up the next couple weeks so hopefully between that and me having a couple weeks off I can put a good buck on the ground! Also, that huge 8pt I showed the pics of was seen by one of the guys in the club headed back to the clubhouse so he is still out there! Be nice to see him with a gun in my hand!

VABuckSlayer Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Our spokepole season started Saturday. Only saw does and fawns though. Won't get to hunt much this week because of the time change but I'll hunt everyday for the 2 weeks after that. I think it will start getting good here again by the end of this week.

mikewink Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Hunted hard all weekend. Not alot moving during daylight hours right now. I will probably make it out once this week. I'll make it out this weekend too. Next week our rifle season starts. Unfortunately, I have way too much vacation, and my boss is forcing me to take some during rifle season. And then some more during Muzzle loader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
