Ya, the rut should be kicking in within the next couple weeks... hopefully they'll start getting all this corn off around here as well. at least I know there are some running around. Here's a pic from a couple weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backwoods07 Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 Sheesh. That's a monster. It sounds like all the corn is still up by you too? Our farm is really gonna open up a lot when the corn comes down. We put up our stands with the idea of the corn being down when we hunt them. This corn coming down will get em moving soon!

Strut10 Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 Wish they'd knock some corn down around here, too. Seems like a lot of the deer must be living in the corn 24/7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunt or be Hunted Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 im not hunting around any corn at all im hunting in front of soybeans! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Well...........here goes my best effort for the team. I'm off work for the next 2 weeks. My mission: Smoke a pair of big does and a buck 3 1/2 years or better. Pretty big plans, I know. But a guy can dream, can't he?? :clown: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rem308 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Well good luck Strut10, off work for 2 weeks, you timed it right! Good luck, can't wait to see a bruiser & the does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Well good luck Strut10, off work for 2 weeks, you timed it right! Good luck, can't wait to see a bruiser & the does. Don't know about the "bruiser". Haven't been having any of those show up on the trail cams. I've posted the biggest bucks so far in the photography room. Don't think I'll be shooting any of the ones pictured. As for the does.........there's a couple that I've got something personal to settle with. I will ventilate them with a grin on my face. :bat: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHISKEYSWAMP Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Shot a doe this morning... my shot was a little low and back with having to shoot from an awkward position sitting down. I let her go for a couple hours until the old man showed up to help track. We finally found her about 3 hours later and I had to finish her off. We were about to give up until dad found one spot of blood in the opposite direction we thought she went... she laid about 20 yards from there. I'll get pics posted when I get a chance. I did miss a nice 4 year old 8 point on Saturday morning following some does... he was about 35 yards out but it happened too fast to get a good range and I shot just over his back. i used my 40 yard pin and he duck about a foot... should have aimed lower.

WHISKEYSWAMP Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Here's my doe... not the greatest shot on her and am grateful that we were able to find her. Another highlight in the search for my doe was my dad finding a matched set of sheds laying next to each other in some high weeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backwoods07 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Lotta action this weekend. Congrats on the doe! I just got back from the farm. I was behind a camera all weekend and got some great footage. I'll probably be behind the camera all next weekend, too. I think I found a new addiction.

backwoods07 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 im going out tonight to see if i can get anything, i really hope i can tag a doe Good luck. I think this spike in temps is slowing things down in our area. The experts say things should pick back up by Oct 29th. Hopefully they're right!
