Nice buck MB!!! Hope you get to see more of him, and more of the inside of his rib cage.


Another crazy year for me - season starts Oct 1st and I haven't even been in the woods yet to move stands and clear lanes and whanot. I'm not that worried though - my woods really heats up towards the end of Oct anyway. I have been seeing a ton of small deer with does in the pastures, so it seems that the fall pattern is in full swing. Must have been a good year - I've been seeing triplets and twins in various doe groups. Can't wait to get in the woods.

I'm kinda glad that WV doesn't bring in our season until Oct. 15 I hate hunting in hot weather. It's supposed to be 39 degrees here thursday so that should get my neck to swelling up.

Lucky you gutshot! It was so hot here saturday and sunday that When I left my truck to head out into the woods it was 78 degrees before daylight. Durring the day it reached 92[:'(]sat and 91 sun with the humidity at like 85% I was completly wet with sweat before I even reached my tree both mornings. No movement from the deer ether,But it was a little cooler monday and today due to the hurricane and is supposed to be even cooler later this week with a temp around 55 in the mornings and only reaching into the mid 70s durring the day.

Hey guys, been in the bush hunting white-tail and elk all in the same day for the past week. Some mornings I'd hike down the mountain encountering elk, (but thats another story) and some other days I'd hunt out of some of my stands for deer. I'd see deer all throughout the day at different times. I must of encountered about 15-20 deer every day but just little dinks. Lots of does with about 2-3 fawns, spikes, forkies, couple small racksand saw the one I want, a nice 5 pointer that had a rack that was jet black from the blood drying on it. Maybe 150 class. I still have till the end of Nov. but will take a few days off and try to get my strength back and work on taking some of the noise from a couple of my stands that could of been very costly if the oppurtunity were to come up. Those fu%@ suspended seats on stands suck, the ones that have a strap supporting the seat are a piece of junk. Been shooting every other day and pretty happy out to 40 yrds. I'm looking forward to getting some snow on the ground and things will pick up in the quality dept, the way the temps are getting at night its not going to be very long.
How have you other guys been doing? Are you hunting and seeing anything or what? Lets getter done guys and good luck.

Bobby

Been doing a lot of hunting here in MD, we started the 15th. Seen 9 bucks so far 2 nice ones but not shot opportunities on the big boys. The cooler weather they are calling for should pick things upa bit. How do I get hold of the new logo to put it in my sig?

Season starts tomorrow here in MI. I'm going to get set up this weekend but won't hunt. It's supposed to be 75. Too warm for me. Next weekend though....



BTW fellas, I reduced our logo, which you can see in my sig. Right click to grab - you can then do a save as and throw that link in your sig. We should comply with house rules even though we should get dibs on the biggest logo in town.

Lefty, I'm planning a trip up north finally. Looks like I'm going in about two weeks. I should get at least one full day in the woods if not two. I don't know what my honey hole is like this year but I did observe a great cross road area last year that I plan on hunting.
