RE: Autumn Assassins
Beagle, I hear ya on the nubber. It would be pretty hard to believe that someone could not tell that 1) it was a fawn so you know you have to look for that and 2) once you know that you miss the nubs. Oh well, just a mistake IMO, but nothing to worry over.
My first day was pretty good although nothing to show. I had 7 does come by, 2 as close as 6 yards. My dad was hunting one of our observation stands and saw 15. The problem is between us we saw one buck and it was a 1.5 year old. Anyway, we know this guy is out there. Just need him to step out in the daylight.

Well, 7.5 hrs and I will be perched in the heated, mosquitoe infested, thermacell burning, woods of Louisiana waiting on the monster buck of my dreams to show up. I would settle for a doe. Hope whatever it is it shows up before the temp gets up to the predicted high of 89 deg. Wish me luck guys. I am excited and ready. I will post results around noon tomorrow. Oct 1st here we go.

I shot this big doe last night. she came sneaking in just before 6. all i can say is, those Rage Broadheads are DEVESTATING!!! I have never ever seen a deer bleed like that from bow or gun. she flipped over immediately after the hit, got up took off tripping and falling like crazy. i watched her die, but wanted to check out the blood trail. absolutely insane. blood was shooting out both sides of her covering a span of 7 feet in some parts. lets say Ronnie Milsap could've followed that trail. wow

Way to draw some blood Ryan, now on to the antlers!
I was out tonight and had a 6 pointer walk by at 25 yards, then he stopped, and came back past at 20 yards, and again turned and walked by at 15 and stopped to scratch his offside ear with his hoof, completely hiding his head and opening his vitals. He wanted to be shot!
Had a couple does also but just couldnt get a shot on them. We need a good freeze here to get rid of the skeeters. I bought a thermacell today and was very impressed, the thing works as well as advertised.
