Well fellas getting much colder here in Iowa in the mornings so it is almost time for the magical time of the year. This is my favorite time of the year and always has been, it use to be because of pheasant hunting but now it is solely because of the rut and the opportunity to bag a Iowa monster. The pheasant numbers are very low here in western iowa now partly because of the coyotes and I feel mainly because of the Red Tailed Hawks. Heck we have been hunting be4 and had a pheasant jump and a hawk will swoop down and takeit right out of the air.Well you allhave a great week and I will check in daily. As for you RUTTINBUCKS you have been on here alot more than AlabamaSlama and a few others. Cmon we need some participation.

I got up early this morning ,trying to get some hunting in and it's raining hard ,so i just went back to bed . I'll be hunting with my guy's from www.ontariotrophybucks.com this weekend and Now that the wind's have changed from the south to the north the temp's are dropping . The seeking stage will be starting here and with the hunters moon arriving this weekend should make for some good hunting.

For any of you guy's who want to see the quality of buck's that we have here in Ontario ,you can check them out on the site I just attatched . All of you's are welcome to visit.

Hopefully I'll have a chance at a decent buck this weekend ,or maybe one of the other's will take one down ,but I'll post pic's of our hunt for you's to see.

Found a great "funnel" leading to an orchard. Saw two bucks and three does - bucks at 60 yds 8point not massive but nice - when a life flight copter flew right over. I found out later it was a hunter that fell out of a tree getting into a stand - don't know his condition. But a dog barking and the copter caused the buck to turn and head back into cover. Hunted the spot with a friend last night but the wind was 20mph. two does bedded -ran as we walked in. I'm going to let it cool and try it again this weekend.

FRALEY yer efforts are more than appreciated my friend!!!!!!!! I too am going to hunt some this weekend finally . Probably will go check out a new piece of ground that I just got permission to hunt. Looks really good and one time I was tracking a wounded doe and found a 16 point buck that had been shot during the 1st shotgun season. I did some checking and found out that a 13 year old boy had shot it and told the father where he could find the deer because I did not remove it but new exactly where to find it in case nobody claimed it. It was beautiful and woulda scored in the 160's but I was extremely happy to let this young man know where he could find his trophy. Just hope he passed some of those genes on to his sons and they are hanging around there still.
