Yeah it does. Everytime I get up, i walk to the window and look around for a few minutes. Never know what I am going to see. A lot of my video has voice of me talking to customers or other people from work. If they only knew what I was doing. The bigger the buck, the fast I talk to get them off the phone.

I sat in the stand this morning and didn't see anything. But I only hunt about 35-40 minutes. That way I get back to see my daughter off to school so it's a good thing.

Well I have taken two days off with the warm weather. Been mostly lounging around the house and not enjoying the warmer weather. Played a lot of PS2 and watched a lot of tv.


But....tomorrow I'm going to go out in the morning and see if anything is stirring around before the rain arrives tomorrow afternoon and brings that cold weather with it. Supposed to be a high of 70 tomorrow...but rain in the afternoon, evening, and overnight.....then Friday's forecast is a high of 52 degree's. Big drop, so maybe something out and about in the morning....expect a full report tomorrow afternoon.

Congrats on the buck HCBF!!!We are on the board, and the season is still young.

Sorry that I have not been participating in this thread much lately, but I have been pretty busy. After this weekend, I will be doing nothing but hunting until the last day of the last season.

Good luck to everybody, and lets show those other teams we mean business!

Awefully quiet in here. I hope it's cause you guys are all out hitting it hard. I've got another 2.5 weeks before I get to go. I did get some good news though. One of my brothers that stopped by on thier way elk hunting, told me that a guy that was black powder hunting near our farm in KS., had stopped by and asked permission to hunt my land back there because he had seen a "good one" on it, but my brother turned him down, as I have asked him not to let anyone hunt it, except family. SO, there's at least a one good deer runnin' around with my name on it, I hope!!

I'm finally starting to see some bucks. I hunted last Thurs and Friday and seen one 4 point and a decent 8 point that was around 110", I'm still holding out as I have a weeks vacation the beginning of Nov. I did shoot another big fat doe so I'm doing well in the meat dept. I'm using G5 Montecs this year and have been very impressed.

It got really cold here lately....hunted pretty hard the last few days. But haven't seen much. My buddy saw a nice buck out from his house on Friday last week. So we set up a stand yesterday and hunted it today.A lot of scrapes and rubs in the area and we put out his trail camera. We hunted this morning and only saw some squirrels. Hunted this evening and as it was getting pretty late he motioned he was getting down. So I started climbing down as well......we were pretty close to a dirt road. About half way down the tree we hear a vehicle coming and thinking nothing of it. The vehicle comes by below us(we can only hear it) then gets quiet like they stopped......we listen for a moment when a high powered rifle blasts!!! We both look at each other....the truck takes off as apparently the passenger jumps out and runs up the bank.

We sneak over and try to see down into the road but a lot of underbrush is still on and we can't see. The white truck comes back down the road and we can hear the guys talking but can't see them. We can plainly hear them throw a deer or something else large and heavy into the bed and slam the tailgate. The truck spins off and down the hill.....we wanted to yell something to try and spook them but with them having a gun and us our bow's he stayed quiet and just tried to id them...no luck....but when we took the camera home we had 3 pic's of the buck he saw working the scrapes.....no great pic's just the back of the buck as he's urinating on his legs and in the scrapes.....we hope it wasn' the buck they blasted tonight.


But oh well, back to old faithful stand in the morning, then hanging a stand in a new location tomorrow afternoon.

Hey guys got us a decent one yesterday. He came in at 8AM chasing two does and walked almost right under me. My shot actually went through the back and came out under his right leg in the white part of his stomach. Scored him at 156 1/8 and weighed in at 212 lbs!
