Hey guys - best of luck to everyone still out there!

Fran - we can get two buck tags one archery and one gun (shotgun or muzzeloader) - only rifle hunting is a special late season doe hunt in the bottom two rows of counties in January for a short period (cannot remember the specifics) - and we cannot use our bows during the shotgun seasons (basically three weeks in December) - then back open till the 10th of Jan (I believe).

I still have some time scheduled off- but is getting tough - have had one or two days off per week the last couple of weeks - that coupled with all day meetings, conferences etc. - not much time to get any work done - and the honey do's are piling up big time (especially with the little one getting close). - I will do my best - have had opportunities on nice bucks - but just cannot shoot them - too much promise for the future! There is still time though.

OH - the tahoe almost scored on one Tuesday night on my drive back - barely got stopped and everything came rushing up to the front as this buck just walked across the highway 6 inches from the front. - Left side had a decent brow tine and 6 inches of main beam then busted off - right side was a long tined5 pt.

The buck magnet/free pass situation for the does will be comming off possibly this weekend - about time to re-fire up the smackdown process on them - also this weekend will be a combo pheasant hunt/deer hunt weekend - going with Dad, Jand a friend upfrom Kansas. - although it is tough for me to take much time away from the stand.

It did look like some of you guys were going to get some after shock from that storm to the south - that looked to be a real mess.

Take care and good luck - Mike
