Thanks Ryan, I'll let Scott know you said hello. He's bringing both his bows, I have one pretty tight spot max shot about 20 yards that he wants to use his long bow at... Be neat if he kills his first deer with his long bow this weekend! I am sure hoping he does.

Good luck with the shelas.. and I hope you see a buck or two to get after for the late season!

Were in for some snow this weekend. Makes seeing the deer easier but have to get them in range. Im hoping this weekend will be a good one. Good luck to all...

I got my hat, damn I look good in purple

Hunted last night. Scott and I ...no dice nothing moving by us. Back at it today after work, Scotts out this morning.

Good luck this weekend guys that are getting out!

Hunted this morning in the snow. No deer but I saw 3 turkeys about 75 yards away.

Then I went and walked the 85 acres I am thinking about buying. It is deer heaven. 5 acres in crp along a creek, about 75 acres of HILLY woods, I mean some serious hills here, and a 5+ acre field of brush and saplings. There were deer tracks everywhere in the snow, and we jumped 5 or 6 out of the brushy field. Lots of turkey tracks too.Then we walked down a ridge and there were 11 beds in the snow on it. It only started snowing at midnight. I am putting a contract on it tomorrow. This is my dream property. Here are a couple of aerial photos with the prop lines.

I am already planning on where to put stands.

A bigger view.

Well I hunted both days and saw 1 deer[:@]Man it was cold, LOL

Nice piece of ground you picked up John! Good luck with that land.

Scott and I hunted till Sat, he had to head home Sunday.

He had a good time and was at full draw on 2 does, about 12-15 yards..he passed on them, then one small buck with half a 6x side rack..... passed on him and then he got the big buck a nice 4x4 comeby and he was at full draw on him for a good minute or so waiting for him to take one more step at 26 yards.. No dice, thebuck caught a whiff of him or something and whirled and left..

Me,I didnt see chit in 3 days. Fun fun fun..

If I get another EAST wind I am going to scream Saturday forecast, SE wind[:@]

I know he's back end of the farm laughing at me, I can hear him taunt me[8D]

wind sucked here this weekend too.. Gary.. lots of swirling in my areas with the thermalsbanking off of thestorms moving in and out.

I checked the snow here morning and night.. deer movement was almost all at night around my spots.. I think they just laid in their beds and laughed at me all weekend and got up and walked out behind me, because I had tracks in my tracks daily! LOL

Good luck !
