Nice buck HM, congrats!

I looked all day Wednesday, all day Friday, and spent 5 hours yesterday looking for the buck I hit, with no luck. Found a few drops of blood Friday about 500 yards from where I shot him, and that was it. Sucks for sure, but I've put it behind me. Going to go back out tomorrow afternoon, and try again.

Had to give my son some bad news over the weekend. High Tower was killed by another youngster on our lease. Turns out he was a main frame 8 with 3 kickers, making him an 11. My son wasn't too upset. There's other bucks out there. It's been a great season for East Texas as far as good bucks being killed.

I got back out today, seen 2 different bucks and one of them was chasing does all over the place. I managed to get my dad on one of them this afternoon, a six pointer. My cousin had passed on it earlier in the day , me and dad was sitting in the bkind and it came in. He knows I dont want to shoot any small bucks and he said he wasnt going to shoot either but I knew he wanted it so I told him to go ahead and shoot if he wanted to, I hadnt gotten the words out of my mouth and I heard boom! I dont mind him shooting the small ones because it is hard for him to get out and hunt since he lost both of his legs. We have had a good season so far, we have put 5 deer in the freezer in the last 3 or 4 weeks. I got one more to go and its got to be a doe with the bow, im gonna need some good luck on my side.

Had some windy rainy days over the weekend but the deer were on there feet. I was determined to take a deer with my bow, as I have yet to take a deer with one. Saturday morning I saw a decent buck at about 65 yards( my dad took him Sunday evening) Saturday evening I had two does and a spotted fawn out feeding rite where the buck from the morning hunt was. Sunday morning same three does same spot. Every time I had the Bowtech in hand, even tho it was the rifle opener.

As Sunday evening approached the winds picked up and pops was on me to take the rifle. He knows I want badly to take a deer with bow but he gave me the " you don't know when you'll be able to make it back" reality check. So I grabbed the ole H&R and headed out 4:30 on the nose out the three does came. You all know what ima say next ! 25 yards and browsed around in the plot to about 40 yards. Boy was I kicking myself !!!!! The shot I was waiting for the three previous hunts with the bow. I think on my next trip ima just leave the guns at home.

Hey guys anyone seeing any good bucks ??

My self I don't have much on camera yet but as the pre rut gets closer and the temps finally cooling off movement should increase. There's a six point that I have patterned pretty good that I will take if I have my bow in hand. And I still have hopes that the big 8 has made it through last season, no pics yet but I have faith.
