well i spent the morning combing the area. could not find any sign of blood or hair in the better light. went everywhere and into the thickest stuff around. I found some real interesting spots back in. I think that she must have just been grazed because there was no sign of her. listened for crows and buzzards and heard nothing. walked the area for about 3 1/2 hrs just no sign. I am thinkin i may meet up with here again in the next few weeks

I have been busy also ......... With The Flu [X(][:'(]
This Stuff SUCKS... I can only hope the person that gave me this Crap gets a real bad case of Poison Ivy...Itch Baby Itch......Revenge is a Dish Best Served Cold,or maybe its just the medicine talking.......[:@]
been home in bed for 2 day's with this germ... My husband took me out to hang my last stand on Sunday when this germ was just starting to rear it's ugly head and all I could do to help was show him the spot and lay at the base of atree and rest and watch while he did all the work..... Yep...... he is a keeper
The heat here is not letting up any and it looks like it might be a warm start for bowhunting season with temps in the 80's and 90's.... and the Skeeters arent much better either[:'(]

Lady Forge

whacker .... Sorry to hear about your Doe.

Woodline Bucks

Lady Forge, I hope you get to feeling better. As a consolation, at least it happened before the season opens.

whacker, good luck on chasing that shooter down. You will get him!

I got some more camera pictures the other day, no shooters. A couple 120 inch plus bucks, they will be really nice next year if they make it. I will be out fishing the rest of this week, only 11 days until the opener. Good luck everyone!!

Lady Forge

Woodline Bucks..... Thanks
After puking, fever , muscle aches all over, headaches,cough, sore throat, suffed sinuses, runney sinuses and a bunch of other goodies that accompanied this germ and now looseing my voice I feel wiped out but.....I am feeling a little bit better................. yep you are right..... I am glad I didnt get that crud during season.[:'(]

I'm back at work and buried under a pile of bows to fix and restring for all the lovely Bowhunters whom waited till the last minute to get their bows ready for the seasonAnd a never ending stream of arrows to build for customers.... what can we say .... Business At The Bow Shop Is Good

I did pickup a new pair of Muck Woody Elite Boots yesterday and boy are they comfy..... cant wait till it gets cold to give them a real tryout.

The farmers are getting the corn and beans out of the fields here left and right... I have never seen them come out so early before in the 19 years I have been living here!!!!! Should start to see a lot more deer once they get all the corn out, but the temps are so awful hot still here and the skeeters are still pretty bad in the river bottoms.

I got a few stands to checkout some Sponsorship experiments I have going on at them this weekend so it will be nice to get in the woods!!!!!

13 deer this evening. 5 bucks. 80 yards scrapping with each other army crawled to within 45 but no go from there 2 shooters. it was neat to watch them, at one time 4 of them were goin at it nothing serious but just feeling each other out.

Well a perfect weather opening weekend came & went last weekend. Unfortunately, I could'nt find a trade for the life of me. I was out on a rsq in the early moring & it was perfectly still outside. All I could do was sigh. As Lady Forge said earlier, temps now in the upper 80's & 2 many of our state birds (mosquitos) will clean u down to the bone in the evening. Cold front coming thru next week, temps in the 50's at night. Hopefully I'll be then. But a bit of good news,a friend of mine that moved out to Wyoming a couple of weeks ago, came back this week & offered me a double seat ladder stand. So that'll go up on some private land that we used to hunt.That'll be put to good use. All the units here are earn-a-buck this yr. Lucky, I shot an anterless deer last yr. Has anyone shot anthing yet?

Lady and gentlemen, Iam back from a successful Colorado tripand my hunting interest now will be squarely on Whitetails. While the season opens here in a week, normally I don't see any big boys until well into November, but stranger things have happened. Either way I should be ready with a vengence.

I am glad to see everyone making so much effort for our team to be the '07-'08 champs. With this much dedication and a little luck we can pull this thing off.

Keep up the good work and take one for the team, while your livin' the dream!
