superguide Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 'BigMoss' and I went out to try and fill my mulie tag tonite-he got his whitetail buck yesterday. We spied some pretty good horns sticking out of standing oats so Robert videoed while I stalked in. The oats are 4-5 feet high so I got right on top of him-40 yards face on but all I could see was the top of his head and horns. I had to pressure him till he bounced off and shot at him on the move. It sounded like a solid hit and Robert has him on video falling over after about fifty yards. The oats were too high to find him tonight so I guess we'll be looking in the A'M.

MUDRUNNER Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Congrats Wimpy! Any luck finding your buck SG. I hunted Saturday morning for the first time this season.Seen a few does,but no shots.The wind was light,but swirling pretty bad.It felt good to be in the woods again and get the ticker pumping from seeing a few does up close.Highs are still in the 80's here, so hopefully it will cool off soon.

MUDRUNNER Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 I didn't even get a chance to go out over the weekend.It was 85 degrees all weekend so it didn't bother to not go.It's suppose to start cooling off a bit this week,so I plan on trying again next weekend.

cinch314 Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Well last night I had a fawn come up behind me aboout 5 yards and play then I had two spike bucks come up about 10 yards from me and play and I heard something else coming up and it sounded really big. I was ready for it to come out but then fire trucks, first responders, an ambulance and several cops all with there sirens on came down my road and scared it off. One of my friends had a bad four wheeler wreck. Her and her new husband were riding four wheelers (she is four months pregnant) well one of them got med flighted out. I dont know which one yet. Im just praying for them. I am also taking a 13 yr old boy out hunting this weekend (youth gun season here) he has never killed anything and his mother wants me to take him out so Ill be hunting most of the weekend (me with my bow of course). Ill try to take a doe unless I get that big buck Im after to put us in the lead. Oh by the way, that big boy I had last year that was 12 points last years is now 15 points. Thats the one Im after. Unless the kid gets a shot at him first. Good luck to all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUDRUNNER Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 Nothing for me this weekend.A buddy and myself hunted Saturday and neither one of us seen a single deer. Things should start picking up a little here in the next few weeks though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cinch314 Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 Got an 8 ptr but one of the brow tines broke so they will count it as a 7 pt. My first bow kill woooooohoooooooo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointing_dogs_rule Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!! Last week was my muzzleloader week here in Iowa. If it doesn't hang on the wall it doesn't get shot. I had some great hunts, however, all 8 buck were the 8 point (16 inch wide type). They will hopefully all turn into nice deer if the gun hunters let them grow. This past Friday the young bucks started following the mature does. Stupid youngin's don't quite know what's going on yet. Seems all the old mature bucks are still being sneeky. Corn was put in late around here so there is still tons standing in the fields. Way too much places for the big boys to hide. I will start to concentrate on archery this coming week. Good luck to all the dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cinch314 Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 The pic really doesnt do this buck any justice because Im going to have this buck mounted. It will be my first mount soooooo hopefully it will turn out ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MUDRUNNER Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 Nothing for me again this weekend.I'm not sure what's been going on,but deer movement is really slow.Everything seemed perfect Saturday, but the deer just didn't cooperate.I'll give it another go this weekend.

LifeNRA Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Well, the press was broke yesterday, so I had the day off. I got a late start this morning, needed to take my daughter to school. Got in the tree about 10:30AM, noticed three does heading out after they watched me climb! LOL! Curious little devils! No deer until about 5PM, a six pointer, a legal deer for Pennsylvania. I must be getting older! I let him pass! He was only at 14 yards too! Could have drilled him five or six times! Had two more does walk under the tree, but I could tell they were too young. All in all, it was a good day! Heading out tomorrow morning for an all day sit in the tree! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointing_dogs_rule Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Same problem as everyone else on this team (except cinch) .... deer are non-shooters. Passed a three buck this past week... most 8 points in that 16" spread area. Small bucks are starting to trail does. Corn is coming out so hopefully the big boys will start to move this week. good luck to all the dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointing_dogs_rule Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 All non-shooters this past week. Three bucks .. 8 point 16 inch spreads.

MUDRUNNER Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Well, I finally had some deer in range over the weekend. I had two little six pointers come in Saturday morning, but let them walk.I have three new scrapes and a few rubs around my stands so things are looking up.A cold front is coming in late this week, so hopefully I'll get to use a tag next weekend.

willfish03 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 I haven't been on here lately. this hunting season has been very difficult for me . I wasn't sure I would be able to even pull my bow. I cant remember if I mentioned that I had a bad break in my left shoulder in June. two weeks before bow season i couldn't even lift my bow. the first week end bow season i walked within 15 yards of a doe, by placing my bow on my knee i was able to draw, but holding it was hard and i missed by feet. after a meeting at my bow club i was able to borrow a youth bow to practice drawing, building my strength for my own bow. at our annual club hunt i had thought myself to shot left handed with my bow, but still had eye dominance problems. i wasn't able to even pull the youth bow and was getting disappointed but still i hunted. every weekend i found my self in a tree. than the last week in October on a Tuesday evening hunt i tried to pull my bow and to my relief i did it. now i looked forward to this weekends hunt. on November 1 this year i was bow hunter, at 5:30pm I harvested my first deer of the season a nice doe (pictures to follow) at 6:00pm my arrow my arrow had found its way to put down another. second deer went to needy family.
