Re: Team 10

headed to the stand this evening got settled in around 330...... it was so HOT!!!! I sat there and around 6:30 I was glassing this field and see 2 does well they kinda feed for a while then ease into the woods...... and around 7 or 7:15 I see 3 more does in the same spot........ they were headed my way so I just stood there nice and still lookin at them throught the bino's and they get at about 100yds and ease off in a differ direction......

My first couple times huntin at the first of the season is not to just kill a deer its primairly to pattern and see when and where they will come out..... so I know about where they come out at...... Me and a buddy may slip in on em in the ol ground blind and see if we cant get it on video...... then we went and just drove around on some public huntin grounds its like a park around the lake and seen 3 deer there just out lookin at em...... one was a little forked horn.....

also I seen 2 deer on the way to work this morning so Ive seen a few deer today......

Re: Team 10

hey everyone. Sorry for being soo late. I work in insurance and my 10-1 was a huge date for sales. Now that it's past time to do some hunting.....

Opening morning was good to me. At 8 I had 3 does and a 9 and 8 point come by. The 9 probably would have scored around 115 give or take 5 points. I let them all walk b/c two of the does were fawns and I felt a little bad about shooting momma and I have seen bigger deer in the area. So about 5 minutes later he comes two big does and I hear dinner bells at this point. I let the first one go through the opening and then the muzzy got to eat. Zipped her through both lungs from 20 yards and she only ran about 40 before crashing. After all that I had 5 more does come in followed up by a really nice 8 pointer. Now this is the second buck that tempted me this morning, but I let him walk too... It was pretty neat seeing the other does sniff the arrow that was stuck in the ground from the first shot. After they sniffed that awhile two yotes came running in and chased them off. (couldn't get a shot) then about a minute later a 6 pointer comes running right at me and stops 5 yards away and go figure it was those darn yotes again. I'm gonna get one of those little beggers this season. Anyway I forgot to take the tag pic so I will post that as soon as I get it back from the processor.(we use a metal tag in IN) unless we are sopposed to post our actual tag then I will take a picture b/c I'm a lifetime licence holder for Indiana.

Another neat point. My buddy was sopposed to video that hunt but he thought "his" spot was better and go figure he didn't see a darn deer....We did go out at his house last night and videoed his hunt. he missed a doe early and then stuck a doe about 10 minutes later. We got it all on video. She was hit far back and we let her lay overnight and went back out this morning and found her. Even though it was warm last night the meat was still good b/c unfortunately she didn't expire until this morning we think. When we cut her open she steamed and she wasn't that stiff yet. You never like to see that happen, but at least we found her and she didn't go to waste.

Re: Team 10

Ok boys Im stuck here...... im not sure what spot I want to hunt in the morning.... im definatly skippin tommorrow..... and there is a cold front moving in right now......

I got a spot that I seen 5 deer at but they were all a long ways away but where im set up at there is a nice beat down trail coming through there..... would be best if the wind was out of the NW headed SE..... the sun would be to my back......

or I got another spot that I seen alot of deer at in this little hardwood bottem.... I would be facing the sun and the wind would be in my favor if it was headed SE......

or I could set up where I seen the 5 the other day on the side of a food plot set a ground blind up.....I might save this spot for tommorrow evening.... cause thats where I saw the deer at in this location and there is a full moon so I figure they will start feeding out there around 630 or so.....

what do yall think I should do.....
