Re: Team 17

Your very welcome! Been hunting the last 2 weekends seen some does and a few small bucks. Could have taken a couple of does but it has been to warm and i really don't like butchering a deer in the warm weather, Its the rush i don't like. Anyone else have any luck? Has anyone heard from our other teamates that has not showed up?

Hunted here in Illinois sunday evening and seen 3 doe's . Hunted Monday morning , rattled in a small 6 pt. and small 8 pt. and seen 1 doe and a couple coyotes. Seen nothing that evening. Hopefully by this weekend all the corn will be cut, then i should start seeing alot more mature deer. My buddy who i hunt with had his deer target attacked in his yard and the buck made a scrape right next to it on his lawn , along with rubs on some of the trees around the house. It was hilarious! grin.gif

Well I am here at my parents and have been hunting since Sunday morning. I have seen alot of does, a spike, a small 8 point, and 2 180 to 200 class monsters. The two big ones stayed about 45 yards out in some thick brush so I couldn't get a shot at either one. Hopefully one or both will screw up in the morning and come under my stand. My dad has already got 2 a small 6 and a small doe. I am trying to jold out for one of the big ones because I still have a week and a half to hunt.

Re: Team 17

Finally got my computer back today fellas and caught up on your posts. Sounds like we got some action happening and I must say our team banner looks great. I hope to be out hunting tommorrow evening if all goes well at the bonecrackers in the morning. So far I've had a few chances at some does but no bucks in the sights yet. Rut should be coming on very soon as the deer are moving and making fresh scrapes and the weather is gett'n chilly.

Congrats to all who connected on some fine deer and good luck to all on the buck of a lifetime....may your arrow hit the mark.

Wtg team! I was out last night and seen some deer after legal time but nothing coming to the horns or calling last night. Saw a nice buck roaming a fence line just off the highway, and he sure was a welcome sight. Hope to be out tonight when the snow is flying and see what happens. Good luck to all.

Re: Team 17

Well i scored us some points, been seeing this guy all season and needed some meat in the freezer. I shot at a monster 9 point and it jumped my string. I thought it was a total miss but when i retrieved my arrow it had some hair and blood. I then followed a blood trail for about 200 yards and then nothing. I must have grazed its back. Then to my amazement the next morning in a different stand he came my way again, unfortunately he must have winded me and he stopped and turned the other way. Thats bowhunting! I have a few more weeks left , hopefully i can tag out on a trophy. Congrats to everyone that harvested their deer this year and the best of luck to those still trying. 2006buck011.jpg
