Well teammates...I killed my 2nd Missouri buck this morning.  Awesome hunt...he was in hot pursuit of a doe.  Incredible, massive, tall tined 8 point.  Just finished scoring him.  Gross score is 161 3/4"...yep as an 8 point.  G2's are 14" and 13.25", G 3's are 11.5" and 10.125", main beams are 25.375 and 23.75", inside spread is 18".  When I get home the end of this week, I'll post pics.  Can't from here.  Won't be an upgrade for the team but he's the biggest 8 point I've ever killed...by far!

Congrats!

Made the first hunt yesterday evening at the lease. Nothing to show for it. Back at it again this morning. Had a deer blow several times but I'm sure it wasn't at me. Wind was blowing from the deer to me. Not sure what had it spooked. Nothing since then except for birds.

Does will blow when little bucks try to chase them and they are not ready.   Had that going on here at the beginning of November.

No way to know what they were blowing at.

Maybe bigfoot in some of those cases.  lol.  

Been tons of times here I have heard them blowing like crazy with them upwind only later to have a yote pop out.  Seem to have seen more does intolerant of young bucks early on this year though.

Posted a better pic of my big MO 8 point in the thread in the deer hunting room.  Here it is for the team too.  Taken the next morning.

Not sure if I should post it in the contest entry thread or not since it's not an upgrade for the team.

Decent Buck.  Does he have a twin or older brother?    Just as I figure out where and how these deer I am hunting evacuate the area, the darn wind changes and the deer move to there advantage. Well it's time to go for the interception, the wife is shutting me down to two more whitetail hunts before my cow elk draw, think I will take her. We seen some respectable bucks the last time we went out.

There are a few I believe will scorer higher and have more points on our MO place but 2 bucks is the MO limit so I'm tagged out.  The big 8 was a fully mature buck.  Hope your wife had a successful hunt.  Congrats on the yote too!

Good to hear from you stealthman.  Good luck on your upcoming hunt.
