South Dakota live hunt begins......Now


Recommended Posts

Twas the night before xmas oops wrong story LoL!

I start tommorow at 8am for Spearfish,SD to hunt with my new friend Bob Speirs of Crow Creek hunting . United airlines has changed my plans for hunting tomm. night arrival time wont let me make it to the stand early enough. So since Ill be the first this year on the ranch i decided to pull back and watch the fields the 1st night and get a idea whats in store for me . They had a good snow last weekend which shifted deer movement some , but they should be ok now. I really want to hunt tommorow night but dont want to risk bumping any deer. So thats that . I just found out Ill have limited cell service as well , hopefully text messges will get through ok. If not I can drive about 5 miles at night for updates for you folks. Pretty pumped ,wont sleep good tonight

Ill be in touch with my trusty texters tommorow morning.

Tim;););););)

By the way this is a bow hunt all day saturday,sunday, monday, tuesday and wednesday morning getting home late that night

Just got a Call from Tim. Good to talk to you Tim ;).

He has landed in Chicago Ill. Getting ready to get a bite to eat. Then get his next flight to Rapid City SD.

Tim called whom he thought was Matt in Ill(hoytnmuzzyboy) before he called me. He was having anice conversation with him telling "Matt in Ill" about how he just landed and was about to get a bite to eat and to post the update to the forum.....Matt said sure I post whatever you want. It was then that "Matt in Ill" said Tim you don't know who you are talking to do you.....Turns out Tim called Matt Morrett from Hunter Specialities and not Matt in ILL. :D:D:D:D Tim said Matt Morrett is quite the jokester so he was playing along with the entire story:p:D

Just got off the phone with Tim, he said he's seen lots of bucks tonight! A couple in the 150s and many more in the 120s to 140s in the field that he's hunting. We only had a few minutes to talk since he's in an area with low cell service. He's going to call me tomorrow night with an update, so I'll keep you posted! ;):cool:

I heard from my son Joe, Tim was on to some shooters in the distance...I was getting ready to yell at him for being on the cell while we were in the woods this morning when he stopped several times to text message. I said "stop it with that crap now!...were hunting Joe! Always on that cellphone:mad:"...Dad...That was Tim Andrus I was texting...he's on a hunt in S Dakota and he is looking at some shooters in the distance...my facial expression changed:rolleyes: now that I knew it was Tim Andrus...Joe goes...Oh...NOW its OK I'm on the cell huh Dad?...I said shut up and lets go get breakfast...kids...:D

We will be back out in the woods at 2pm...

Go get 'em Tim!

Tim had 5 bucks in the distance this morning and 2 of them were "slobs" as he put them he also said he had some deer bedded right in front of him.

He said there musta been 50 does this morning.

Haven't heard from him since this Am so who knows

Steve

Ditto. That was about verbatim what he sent to me. Said he was getting frustrated already. :D I told him he'll get them patterned, it's only the first day and to hang in there.

:cool:

He said he'd keep trying. I told him that I was hunting all day so he might want to hand off the texting to someone else who was able to post updates. I haven't heard from him since around 11 a.m. Eastern. :D
