Good Luck on tagging a decent Buck.Keep us informed. I will try busting a few Does (antlerless only-special Bowhunt Sept. 15th). Our regular season opens Oct. 1st. If I add one, it should be a good one. Killen & grillen would be easy for me on just any Buck for the most part-I been holding out for any of 3 particular Bucks the past 3 years so I have been eating my Buck tag but have averaged passing at least 15 smaller Bucks. Several have been pretty decent-last yearI passed athin 10, decent 8 & a decent 9 thatthe farmer took shotgun season (9 point). Anyway, we will just have to show ALL the other LOSERs (teams) who is number "ONE".

Sorry that I haven't been on in a while but with school starting it has been busy. But I'll tell ya with only 13 days left I'm loosing sleep at night.

youngbuck-where you from in Ws.? I have Bowhunted all over the state at one time or another since 1958.
Up North Mostly-Boulder Jct. & Manatowish Wates area & then Hayward. Black River Falls, Necedah area lot's too. Some around Dodgeville.

Youngbuck41- Good luck with school this year. I think that everyone that visits HNI is feeling the same thing. Except for those lucky few that have already been up in stands with bow in hand!!!

I know I have been counting the days for awhile now.

Im back from Ky. No antlers in hand but I came very close on a 130-140 inch 10 pointer. He was 40 yrds and closing when a pack of yotes started running the deer in the field spooking him off. I did get some video of him and a nice doe that I smoked with the new bowtech. I also smoked two of those yotes and my buddy took out another 1. We hunted a cut corn field most of the time but should have been hunting a water hole. We put our camera on it and when we checked it had 35 pics on it in 2 days. It had several nice bucks on it and 1 would have been during shooting light. I seen a total of 32 deer over the 2 days from the stand. I'm thinking about heading back down and setting up on that water hole fairly soon. Pics are of the 2 biggest deer we got pics of.

Ray, if you dont mind me asking what type of trail cam did you set by the water hole? Is it by chance one of those new Stealth Cam I450's?

It is the V450 which is the same as the I450 except it has a LCD screen. Good camera with an excellent flash. Trigger is a little slow but in the right spot that doesnt really matter.

Sounds like a great weekend in the tree's Ray. From what you have said sounds like you will add a nice buck to the team score!!!
