hoosierhunter Posted October 22, 2021 Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 It’s go time, starting next week I’m going to hit it pretty hard. I hunted this morning and saw 5 bucks. 4 were full racked, just not what I was looking for. I have my mind set on one particular animal so let the chess match begin!

hoosierhunter Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Well that was a quick game as I got my dad on him last night and he smoked him at 20 yards! He’s a main frame 8 that grossed 155 1/8th. Super pumped and now it’s time to shift gears for the next in line. Unfortunately he’s not quite as predictable as the last one.

That is awesome, congratulations to your father. Post some pics if you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoosierhunter Posted October 29, 2021 Report Share Posted October 29, 2021 I’ve been out a few times and seeing a lot of 2.5’s and 3.5’s. Probably won’t get out again until next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoosierhunter Posted November 1, 2021 Report Share Posted November 1, 2021 Things are shaping up for a decent few weeks. Weather is cooperating, shooters are starting to daylight more, I have significant time off work plus I’m headed on the military hunt next Sunday. I have to say cell cams are a double edged sword. Amazing to get real time information about your hunting area, but it will also eat you alive when you can’t be out there! They certainly got the big 8 killed by dad and have also caused some heart burn the last few days not being able to hunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoosierhunter Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Had a great morning hunt by rattling my target buck in to 35 yards. Unfortunately not shot and he lives another day. Definitely got the heart racing through. Back at it tonight as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierhunter Posted November 3, 2021 Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 Slow evening last night and morning hunt today. Pulled a few cards, but not much showing up on them. I’ll be back at it tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zizzer59 Posted November 5, 2021 Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 Hope you’re having some good luck! The weather has been great down here, unfortunately I’ve been stuck at work. I’d like to get out a couple more times before gun season opens but we’ll see. Thankfully there’s no cell service where my land is, so I can’t use the cell cams, otherwise I’d be unemployed!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierhunter Posted November 5, 2021 Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 I’m a stand tonight. Last night was good with 7 bucks and 8 does, but no shooters. I also just skipped an arrow off a yotes back at 15 yards. Had my slider set at 25 and forgot about it. Lessons learned….. nothing but a pile of hair.

hoosierhunter Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Well getting my tail kicked so far at the big oaks military hunt. No deer and three other hunters spotted so far. Here’s a few pictures from the stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierhunter Posted November 10, 2021 Report Share Posted November 10, 2021 Been burning everyday here, but only seeing 3.5 year olds and younger. Big oaks was a bust, but fun adventure overall. Gun comes in this weekend and I will be taking my wife out Saturday. It probably will grind into late season before I shoot anything besides a doe unless I get it done before this weekend. Here’s a view from the stand tonight. Rare southeast wind this late in the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierhunter Posted November 15, 2021 Report Share Posted November 15, 2021 Opening weekend was fun. I got to lay eyes of a few good 3 year olds, but not any target deer. I’ll get out a few times this week, just not sure which days yet. It’s about to get real tough as our deer climb into the bunker when the guns start booming.

hoosierhunter Posted November 21, 2021 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 Slow week. Unfortunately the neighbors wounded a good buck two days ago. We tracked him for nearly 2.5 miles with a tracking dog and finding blood the whole way. At the end of the track he popped out of the corn at 400 yards tailing a doe. That was enough of a signal that he isn’t mortally wounded right now. Unfortunately who knows whether he can survive long term after being shot in an extremity with a 20 gauge slug. I’m headed out tonight, but not expecting too much. More just looking to get back in a stand after not sitting for nearly a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoosierhunter Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 Finally back in a stand hunting this cold front over some standing crops. Nothing on camera just taking a flyer that something new might show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierhunter Posted January 1, 2022 Report Share Posted January 1, 2022 Nothing new to report. Statewide closes tomorrow so I’ll be focused on urban from here on out. Still nothing showing up, but cold temps are moving in so we will see who comes to visit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoosierhunter Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 I took my oldest daughter out on Monday to sit over some standing beans. We had an awesome sit and she got to see a tremendous amount of deer. No shooters stepped out, but it was a blast as they were coming from every direction and she was very excited about that. We might try it again later this week when the temps drop again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zizzer59 Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Sorry for the absence lately, unfortunately nothing to report from down here. I haven’t been able to make it to my land since november due to the baby and work. We moved to the Northwest Arkansas last winter so I’m still getting used to hunting what little public land is here. There is WAY more pressure here than what I’m used to! Bow season runs until the end of February here and I’ve got some vacation time coming up so I’ll be hunting pretty hard that week.
