Anyone else notice that our first buck down for the team was entered on page 44 of our team thread??? I think it is a sign of things to come. Go NIMRODS

Steve you gotta get that brute entered in the contest cause we are still a big goose egg. Congrats again on a nice buck.

Also remember to send Rob P/A a copy somhe can post it Stevez

I was out this evening and even though the wind's were fairly high still had deer come to the field . I used my doe decoy but it seem to spook the deer somewhat . I also used my grunt tuibe and am posative that I had a buck in the wood's behind me ,but for some reason never came into the open for me to have a look. I won't be back out till Fri evening and give it another go ,but this timeI think I'll leave the doe decoy at home this time.
I also have all weekend to go out as well ,but the rifle seasonm begin's on Monday ,so it look's like I may miss the full rut.

Wow FRALEY doesn't even come around here anymore. Tommorrow will be the day for me hope I can get a biggun for us.

RE: 44-Official Team 44 Thread.
 

im working on getting him scored. I dont have the head here at my place its at a friends getting skull mounted. It wont be long ill have it. My friend was supposed to measure. What do you guys think it will score?

RE: 44-Official Team 44 Thread.
 

I'm thinking he'll score around 120 to 125 . Maybe better ,but just a guess SteveZ.

I was out this evening and had a nice solid 8 point come out at around 80yrds ,at first it looked as though he was going to come right in ,but slowly turned and walked out into the field for a little feeding ,then he returned into the bedding area.A few minute's laterI see another deer walk into the field right where the buck went in ,at first I thoiught it was the buck returning ,but it happened to be a doe ,then 2 more doe's came from the very same area . Look's like this guy has all his doe's rounded up and ready fro the breeding phase.Thing's are looking real good and maybe tonight I should have had my decoy out ,just maybe that's all I really needed to get him to come in . I'll be back out in the morning ,with any luck he might just be hanging around.

Got out this morning and never seen a deer till 9:00am ,a small spike walked right across in front of me, he started to go the other way when I "murped" at him and he came directly back to me within 20 yrds ,but I'm not ready top take a deer of his size quiteyet. I'm heading back out right now to remove and replace my stand's . The rifle hunter's will be in there tomorrow to scout and I don't want my stand's to go missing ,so out come's the ladder's and I'll hunt the rest of the weekend with my climber and 1 small portable stand . I also heard another hunter on the other side of the property line grunting and rattling a couple time's this morning ,The small buck headed in that direction and I'm sure he seen the little guy because he started grunting andrattling shortly after he went into the bush . This guy couldn't have been any more than 75 yrds from me directly into the hardwood's,so I just sat still hoping he may pull something across in front of me . See what happen's this evening .

Tonight was terrible ,only seen 3 deer and they came out from under my stand ,a doe and a pair of fawn's ,could have shot them ,but I don't like taking the doe away from fawn's . After going back to Rob's[Land Owner's]house after I hunted we had a coupleof beer and watched the Toronto Maple Leaf's play .The wife and some other friend's showed up ,but then the phone rang, and it was Rob's wife Mary,she had hit a deer on the way home ,So Rob ,Clarence and myself grabbed a beer and headed to help Mary with this deer ,she was really upset because this deer was still alive .When we got there theOPP's were there and he had gone ahead and shot the deer.After looking the deer over it was a 1 1/2 year old buck and she took his back leg's out ,so we through him in the truck and took him back to Rob's farm andfield dressed him ,he was in real good shape ,so he'll make for some real good eating . The Rifle season start's on Monday and they're calling for real bad weather ,so hopefully the big guy's make it through the week . These big buck's don't get big for being stupid .
There were hunter's on every property around setting up stand's and scouting out the properties today ,so i guess that's a good reason for it being so quiet tonight .What get's me is these guy's come up here to hunt and they decide to sight in their rifle's on the very property they want to hunt ,I would really think they would want the property to be quiet for Monday ,but i guess it doesn't matter to them .
