RE: Illinois Progress
crazy day in the stand today.....
wind was howling and it was horribly in my face, not a whole lot was going on besides seeing a spike chasing a doe for about an hour....then everything went nuts
first i saw two bucks, one decent 8 and a real small 6 point we running together about 300 yards away, but i only got a small peek of them....then my dad came over the radio within a couple minutes saying that a small 6 pointer was chasing 5 does....and then i saw two other bucks chug by my stand, and then about after only like 15 minutes of nothing, 4 does run by being chased by a small half rack......the deer were seriously RUNNING today....it was a neat thing to see.....my dad saw 20 deer today, and I saw 15.....only one deer was i thinking of taking....it was that decent 8 pointer, but i couldnt get a shot off cause they were moving so fast.....no calling, no nothing, because of the wind....but we did have some estrus urine and mucus out....but they never came by slow enough to care about it....very exciting day.
