RE: He got him!
Team I have a domain name called www.greatdeer.com so if you don't mind I decided to post our team deer pics on this site when we get one. Buck or Doe will be posted along with the date. Just a plain simple site but somewhere we all can go without having to scan through all these pages. Enjoy!
Jenna with your creative talents if you want to mess with that site let me know and I can give you user name and password.

RE: He got him!
This is the result of my afternoon hunt. I was in my stand for all of ten minutes when this doe, another doe, and a fawn came in behind me. They fed to 15 yds. from my tree and I let my arrow fly. I double lunged her and she went down in sight. I left for my tree at 3:10 and was on my sofa eating supper with her in the fridge at 6:45. Needless to say, I am pretty happy. It will be tenderloins and eggs for breakfast in the morning. I am going to try for one more doe before I start concentrating on a buck. I am so happy it cooled off!

RE: He got him!
Great Doe Brett, Congrats!
I just got in from the woods and man was it a great morning. I got into my stand before daylight and about 10 or 15 minutes after I settled in 3 does came strolling through. I would have taken one but dad said not to take anymore does cuz we dont have a place for all that meat. Anyways they stayed for a while and then they left. About 20 minutes after that a big ol' spike came into the field and was circling where the does had walked through earlier. I messed with him a bit by grunting softly and he came in a little but was clearly focused on finding those does.
After he left another set of 5 does came in, and these things were HUGE! Biggest does I have ever seen before. They didnt stay long, they were just passsing through. About 15 minutes after that a little 4 point buck came in and went out to the same spot the spike was sniffin around and didthe same thing. Things slowed down after that and I figured out why, There was a coyote in the field and it must have scared everything off for the time being. I brought the coyote in by making that kissing noise they always tell you make, and it worked....just didnt bring it close enough.
Sorry for the rambling....it was just an awesome morning to be in the woods. Cant wait to get back out there!

RE: He got him!
Thank you Tony and Jenna. It sounds like you had a great morning hunt Jenna. Just keep being patient and I'm sure you will get a shot at a good buck. It sure makes for a great hunt when you have all of that activity around you doesn't it?

RE: He got him!
And yet another exicting day in the woods! The deer didnt start moving until about 8:30 this morning and man was it an awesome day. I seen a lonesome 6 point strolling through the field at about 7:30 and it made it a good start to the chilly morning. Oh what I was in for at 8:40! I seen a deer walking the woodline and couldnt make out if it was a buck or doe, so I got myself ready just in case.
Lo and behold its a buck, a little 4 point that is being followed by the BIGGEST buck I have ever seen while hunting. Oh man was I pumped, 15 yards and closing in. I draw my bow and they both stop in thick cover. I was shaking and praying that they wouldnt bust me. I look the the direction they are and 2 small 4 points walk out.
That huge buck decided to chase those deer away, and not let me take him. O well, it was a great hunt and I was so excited to see such a monster.
