Guest tarbaby Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Nice going everybody... to be honest with ya'll I have been out only a handful of time compared to past years. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the whole college thing. This is the week I pulled a state park bowhunt through the state but I also have a paper due, a quiz, and 3 tests. I went out this morning to my usual spot and didnt see anything but squirrels. Just got done typing my paper and now I have three more tests to study for, but Thursday night and Friday morning have my name all over them. Next week for thanksgiving I am heading back out to the western part of the state to chase some open country deer. I at least want to add 5pts to our score.

Wilfinator Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Point update Shot my second buck of the season - a young 4x2. It has 2 more points more than the last one I entered. Keep it up, we are still in the running Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck2 Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 I've been out of circulation for a few days, but am back with a vengeance. Once again, congrats on a great buck, Hunter36. Pleeeaase get him officially entered into the contest; some upstart teams are beginning to think they can beat us. Wilfinator, nice upgrade. Sure good to see you're outhunting buckee by a country mile.:D tarbaby and monsterbucks1, good luck to you. Looking forward to seeing you with venison. I had a nice 4x4 broadside at 20 yards this morning - but it was beside the road in the headlights. This next couple of weeks should be fun.

rad_112176 Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 Hey guys, Just got to my dads house form our annual hunting trip. We had a great time. The weather didn't want to cooperate for the first couple of days, but on the 3rd day i was able to connect on a decent 8 pointer (6 more points for the team). This is a area that we usually only get spikes and 1 1/2 old deer so was kinda surprised when i seen him. I sat up in my same tree that i located last year and on this stand was my ninth time sitting in the stand over the past 2 years and my 3 buck taken in those 9 times. The stand over looks a area that was clear cut and is against some mature pines. The funny thing is that i can see over 800 yrds from this stand and have shot all 3 bucks at 8 yards, 9 yards and 12 yards. He came and gave me a 12 yrd quartering hard away shot and i dropped him right in his tracks. My little brother shot a doe the evening before and was bragging about entering it for his team and that he was making up ground on us. LOL. I won't be able to post pictures until Monday evening when i get back home, but i might be able to get my brother to do it tomorrow. Congrats on the buck Hunter36. That is a true trophy. Nice upgrade Wilfinator. Tarbaby and Monsterbucks1 we are pushing for you guys. We will see if we can push some of our luck your guys way.

craig mack Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 Well guys I just got back from my trip. I shot a 5 pointer on thursday. I will post some pics when I get a chance. This was a pretty dissapointing season for me this year but I got some meat for the freezer. I shot a nice doe with my bow that we couldnt find. We had a great blood trail for 100 yards, I mean she was bleeding good, and then nothing. We looked for a long time and came up empty handed. And then on my last night I hunted out of my tree stand and missed a beauty of a 8 point. My friend shot it a half hour later. I will post some pics soon.

ranchand99 Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Congrats rad,and craig!Did y'all post 'em yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck2 Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 craigmack, nice going. Looking forward to seeing the pictures and hearing all the details. The weekend here was a blast, but no deer on the pole. Twice I drew on nice 4x4's and was busted both times - once at 28 yards and then at 10 yards. The rut is in full swing and I expect to have more adventures yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rad_112176 Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Hey guys, Here are a few pictures of the hunting trip. I did get my upgraded deer registered and i believe we are still in the lead when they get all of our deer entered. Way to go team and hopefully we can rack the score up a little higher on them. I am bowhunting all weekend in IL and have my IL gun and muzzleloader tags to fill the next couple of weekends. The rut has been a little slow kicking in everywhere it sounds like so hoping to catch some chasing this weekend. Good luck canuck and hope to see some more pics. Picture taken from my stand on a cold morning. I can see probably over 800 yrds, but i shot the buck at 12 yrds. Good stand location. LOL. Picture of our camp. Picture of deer.

rad_112176 Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 I'm having trouble getting the pic's on my computer. I will post some soon. Sorry guys LOL. It's ok craig. We are just needing some good stories to keep us going. I am heading to IL this weekend for the second weekend of gun season. I won't be shooting a buck unless it is a 120 class or better. We talked to the guys that run the ranch in Pike County, IL that we are hunting the day after Christmas for 5 days. They said they are seeing good bucks and alot of there better bucks have made it past the first gun season due to the late rut activity. Good news for us. Hopefully i will have a good update after this weekend. Hope everyone is seeing deer and hope to hear some good news from you other guys any day now. Good luck and keep at it.

craig mack Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 Heres a pic of my 5 pointer. I have another throw away camera that has to be developed with some better pics including the tag pic. I shot him on opening day. He was the only deer I seen that day and I shot him 30 minutes before dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck2 Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 Got us an upgrade this morning, gang. This guy strolled by me at 30 yards at 7:15. Double lunged him, he trotted half heartedly for less than 100 yards, then I just managed to see him drop. I waited 1/2 an hour anyway before going to him, but he was dead long before that. And I guess that puts paid to my season for another year. I've entered him c/w tag in the entry thread already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rad_112176 Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 Congrats Monsterbucks and Canuck. I went out for the IL second weekend gun season this past weekend. I seen a couple decent 8 pointers and some small other bucks, but nothing worth using my tag for. I talked to a few other guys that hunt the same area and they just weren't moving very well. I am heading back this weekend for Muzzleloader and plan on taking one of those 8 pointers if i see them again. I have been doing alot of bow hunting in the same area and purchased my turkey tag because of all the turkey's i have been seeing. They kinda disappeared for a while, but i did see a couple of flocks this weekend and one with a 10 to 11 inch bierd. Wouldn't mind sticking a arrow in him. Good luck everyone.
