Hey, this is phil_pick checking in. I don't post much cause I just picked up a bow last summer for the first time so I am still learning. I did manage to get two does last year but didn't see a buck in the limmited time that I could get out and hunt. I decided to pick up some cameras this year and I just got them in the woods this morning so I'll let ya know what I see when I check them out in a couple of weeks.

Speaking of last year, how did everyone else do last year? I got two does with a bow and one more late in the season with a gun. I saw probly 25 does but 0 bucks last year. Hopefully that will change this year.

It was a long year for me bowhunting last year. I sure passed up a lot of decent bucks, hoping for something good to come along. Nothing ever did. Closest I got last year was watched a 140" ten point for an hour at 100 yards and he never made a fatal mistake. I took a doe on the second to last day. I also shot a 16" 4.5yr old seven point with muzzleloader. For me, that's not a good year at all.
A compilation of bucks in my area from July:

A few bucks that survived last year on another property that I hunt. I'll use this other property as my back-up plan:






Sorry for the pic overload! I'm excited to see what happens this year. I've got a ton more pics, but won't bore you guys with the rest.
