fair enough...let me know how you like it though

God no! that was just my first day....my season goes clear through to December now

I am heading out this afternoon to a place that I had very good success last year...one night there were 4 bucks together with 3 or 4 does...this is the place where the buck in the picture I posted before came from. There was a bigger one than him last year that I shot at and missed and so did my buddy...so hopefully I will get another crack at him!

Good luck Mehuntalot!

Thanks for the good wishes...it didnt work unless you count the gobbler that walked past at 5 yards, or the red squirrel that used my head as a stepping stone[:@]

There was good sign though...it should be a productive spot!

Guess that means you get to enjoy more time in the woods! That is not necessarily a bad thing.

Went out again tonight...no luck with the deer. Coulda shot another big tom but that wouldnt have been legal...I guess I am in some kind of early season funk so far this year

When do all your seasons start??? Its getting kind of quiet in this folder...hopefully your seasons start soon to liven this place up a bit

Mine starts Oct. 1st. I've been kinda quiet lately. Not much going on. I made my trip to Cabela's the past Saturday and picked up my last few odds and ends. I've been shooting daily and making sure my equipment is all ready to go. I'm still waiting to get my Switchback back from repairs. Should be sometime this week if Mathew's gets the parts to the dealer on time. Good thing I have a backup bow or I'd be going nuts with the season so close.

Mine started this morning. i just got back from san francisco and i've been dying to get into the woods. the trip was a disaster, topped off by a fire in the hotel at 4am (lots of smoke and just a little flames, no injuries or anything like that). but istill smell a little smokey.hehe. so, i'm going on very little sleep, but I'm on my way out to the woods. hopefully i'll have better luck tonight.

Well I got us on the board...Just hope its enough....Its not the biggest buck but one that I really wanted....I have the sheds to this deer from last year and a ton of trail cam pics of him fromthis summer....He didn't put on any points from last year, just length and mass...We suspect he's a pretty old deer and I am very proud to have taken him given the maturity and the history we have with him...I harvested him last night Sept. 16 and our opener was the 15th. I harvested a doe that morning and I shot a really really good buck that night...We lost blood at the edge of a standing corn field that night...We returned the morning of the 16th and looked for 5hrs. trying to walk out some of the corn and no luck[:@]Worse feeling I've ever had[]I contacted the farmer and told him of the situation and he said he would try and give me a call when he shelled corn and maybe I could ride along...Maybe I'll get to recover him later....I'm going to go back again tomorrow and look for buzzards or see if I can work into the wind and smell him....[:'(]Good luck to the rest of ya this season and stay safe....

one more....
