hoosierhunter Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 Look at Martin being all sly, not even telling you he punched points already. Β Granted we all know when the Wisc Β opener hits a doe better not walk in front of the man! Β Β nice job my man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino Posted October 11, 2022 Report Share Posted October 11, 2022 Hello teammates...got home from my 1st Missouri hunt Sunday evening.Β GREAT HUNT!Β I'll post details of the hunt in the Bowhunting forum.Β In a nutshell, I killed the heaviest doe of my life.Β On our scales she was 192 pounds.Β I saw my main 2 target bucks too.Β Here's some recent trail cam pics of them. This main frame 8 has the widest inside spread I've seen on the hoof.Β Looks like he's between 22" & 24".Β He has a split brow tine on his left side.Β Saw him the 1st afternoon.Β Got to 38 yards but facing me dead on munching on clover.Β He suddenly decided he need to go work 2 lick branches and work scrapes 65 yards away.Β Never got inside 50 yards after that before dark. Saturday morning I watched this buck for ~15 miutes.Β He stood in one spot about 75 yards away looking around.Β He'd do a stare down toward any noise he heard.Β I assume he was looking around for company but he was too early for the party that morning.Β Saw plenty of does & fawns ~30 minutes after he left.Β This buck's frame and mass look similar to my 162" 8 point I killed in this same area aboout 6 years ago eacept he's a toad of a 10. With a cold front moving in this weekend, I'm heading back for round 2 with these boys. Β Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Headed back to Missouri tomorrow morning.Β Looks like the cool air should hang around until the end of next week so I will too.Β Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 Got home late yesterday afternoon.Β Activity slowed down a lot compared to my early Oct. hunt.Β Β Saw 1 mature 8 point the last afternoon hunting fresh cut soybeans.Β He never got inside 75 yards.Β October lull time I guess.Β Mature buck activity on the cams dropped off around Oct. 12th.Β Headed back next week for the sweet November rut period.

Rhino Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 BTW...update on the 10 point my buddy shot at on the Oct. 9th.Β We weren't on the same page about which buck he missed.Β I did a grid search while I was there early last week.Β Wish I had checked all my cams closely.Β I had a TC pic the morning of Oct. 19th of a 10 point with what appeared to be an arrow wound.Β The pic was quartering hard toward the camera though.Β 5 days later he was kind enough to pose for a close up pic (below).Β Easy to see the wound channel is very high and appears like it only passed under the hide.

Maine Hntr Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Congrats Martin, do what you gotta do. Iβm in a pretty similar situation, Iβve been letting some deer go these last couple years but I know a couple other guys close by arenβt letting those same deer go.

Ravin R10 man Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 I have passed all 2yr olds all my life. Feed high protein blocks, pellets, alfalfa all winter. FOR WHAT?? To see them get shot off before they even have a chance?? SORRY, NO MORE. I'M DONE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Congratulations Martin!Β Bummer about the neighbors' attitude toward the deer herd.Β With deer herd management information so easy to find it's amazing there are still hunters out there with the "we don't shoot does, we only shoot any legal bucks" attitude and only shoot those bucks for meat.Β Β I'm heading back to Missouri Wednesday or Thursday.Β I set a new stand during my last trip but didn't have the right wind to hunt it yet.Β The stand is ~15 yards from where 3 trails converge that pass around the east side of 2 fallen trees.Β That's where I saw all the doe & fawn activity during the last morning of my 1st hunt.Β Same hunt when I saw the short G2 big 10 when he hung up on the neighbor's side of the creek.Β The stand is ~25 yards from the creek.

wtnhunt Posted October 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Congratulations Martin.Β Tough passing then when they walk off your farm and get killed on the neighboring farm.Β I passed several 2.5 year olds last year, including one that was a 9 point with super potential.Β That was in the 120's.Β I had probably over a hundred pics of the deer and he hung around fire a good while.Β That deer has not been around so far this year.

Rhino Posted October 30, 2022 Report Share Posted October 30, 2022 By the way teammates...I picked up 2 new shooter bucks on the cams when I ran them last week.Β The 1st one is this big 8.Β I've been watching for him to show up.Β I caught him on cams last year but he vanished before November.Β He's a bigger version of what he was last year. This next one has me scratching my head where he came from.Β I put this 3 pic sequence together of him.Β Tall main frame 10 with a big mule deer kicker off his left G2.

NS whitetail Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 Hey teammates , I got us some points. I took this nice 9 pointer back on Nov 4. I was sitting in my tree and saw a white flicker over in the woods about 200 yards down the power line I hunt on. I got my binoculars up and started looking and bammm all I see was horns step out lol. Got my gun up and one shot dropped him in his tracks. π Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
