I feed corn and plant food plots for the deer on my property. I hunt on and around those areas.

I hunt alot over food plots and feed corn before and after season...We can bait here but must have it removed 10 days before hunting the site.:)

Counting down the days. 24 more to go. ;)

Here in Iowa, we are not allowed to hunt over bait. We can plant and hunt over food plots but we have to be at least 100 yards from feeders or food placed out for deer such as corn or apples. On my place, I don't even worry about planting food plots because all the property around my place is row cropped in corn and soybeans or pastured with alphalpha and clover. Plenty of food around. I started 5 years ago to set up my place as a bedding area. I already had 2 patches of heavy mature cedar thickets on my place. 1 is around 5 acres and the other is about 2 acres. I have since planted 34 acres of hardwood trees. Oaks, black walnuts, hickorys, and ashes. They are still pretty small, only 3 or 4 feet tall, but already the deer use these fields. And yes I'm counting down too. 23 more days! OH YEAH!!!!

COUNTDOWN: 9

Opener can't come soon enough. I've been doing a lot of scouting the last couple weeks and have found some completely new spots with great sign. It'd help if those darn bucks would at least start making some rubs though. I have another scouting day planned for sunday, then I should be good to go.

Well, less than 3 weeks left for me now. :) Picked up a Mathew's Switchback yesterday to tinker with. Sold off my Mathew's LX so the Switchback ended up only costing me $150. Not a bad deal in my opinion. ;)

Took a trip to Cabela's in WV yesterday with my son and had a great time. Picked up a few odds and ends that I haven't been able to find locally in the stores/shops. Now I'm good to go. Only thing left to buy might be another dozen arrows but that's not a priority.

Good luck to you guys who's seasons start this week! Let's get Team Rack Masters on the official scoreboard!

Hey guys,

just checking in, my season started this past saturday the 10th and it ended with minimal success...saw 3 doe had one in range but she winded me and took off.

I will definitely be checking in more now that I am at college and have high-speed internet

JeramyK...hows that switchback treating you?? I have been drooling over them for the last month and a half...I either wanted to get the SB or the LX...your opinion would be great

MEhuntalot, does that mean you are done done? Your season is over already? Man, that sucks if it is.

My coundown: 5

What really sucks (sort of) is I have to go to San Francisco on Thursday. I'll be back saturday night but I have some shooting I need to do. I'm still trying to decide on a fletching to use. My broadheads are flying kind of eratically. But, San Francisco is always....hmmm....interesting.

Well, I need to give it another week or two before I can really give my input on the Switchback. It's back in the shop to have the cam replaced. Going to be 7-10 days before I get it back. [&:]
