went out dark to dark yesterday... buddy shot twice and missed a couple of does. I hit a coyote... (i think i took out a hind leg). Other buddy missed coyote. Don't matter to me, as long as it dies...

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

-5 here this AM...
can't hunt again until Wed PM...
C'mon guys... 1 more good buck could put us on top!
a few does wouldn't hurt either... If I don't put a slick head down by year end we (I) have a problem.

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

im heading out with the muzzleloader on wednesday and hopefully either putting a buck on the ground or a doe. this weekend is the doe only hunt so i plan on putting a couple does down to. wish me luck

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

You'll connect WI... good luck...

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

my grandpa said he saw a lot of deer moving yesterday before our big storm came through. we're supposed to getatleast 8-9 inches of snow by wednesday. i hope that gets the deer moving. all i can do is hope and pray.

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

Us too Wis... supposed to get a storm late tonight into tomorrow... should give us some good tracking snow for Sat...

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

well i got skunked tonight. we didnt even see a deer. there was a fresh trail coming down one of the hills i hunt on. but i sat on the other side to see if i could catch them coming down the hill but none came down. now its just doe hunting hunting for me now. good luck to the few that can still hunt big ole bucks.

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

Have a heard of deer located... at least a dozen together... has to be a buck in the bunch... I'm going on a recon mission this afternoon. Deer are coming out intoa posted field... bedding in non posted woods.. need to work my way around into non posted territory and take care of business. I have a doe tag for this zone as well.
We'll see what happens... been raining all night and morning... calling for the temp to drop and some snow tonight... they should be up and moving...

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

Good luck WMH.

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

good luck. get a big one

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

already back... bumped one on the way out... coming right in to me... not sure what it was...
5 out in the field when I came out.. coming out of a definate "safe zone".

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

Well sorry guys, Just too selective at the beginning and then nother showed for the last week. I guess wrong place at the wrong time. Have one in the freezer from archery but just couldn't help you all out with the contest this year. My most humble apologies.

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

No worries Whitetail... that's why it's hunting...

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

i couldnt get any this year either. i might go out when i have christmas break to see if i can put one on the ground. sorry guys. i hunted my butt off this season and came out empty handed

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

Well my gun season is over in PA she skunked me again.

Sorry team. I still dohave a few days left during flintlock. Now I am new to that game (flintlock)so I will not count my eggs so to speak. I do have a good spot where I know I will at least see some doe hope a big boy made it through and is hanging with the ladies.

Now if I can find a place to hunt on Long Island I can add the month of January to my season. Weekdays only though.

Good luck to those of you still hunting.

MA shotgun is over now... nothing.... muzzleloader runs to the 31st... still have high hopes of at least putting a slick head down for some extra points.

the deer was laying there when i got home from school. it was in good shape

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

I missed a doe this afternoon w/ the MZ... about 70 yards in some stuff... I thought I hit her good... she ran away w/ tail down when the smoke cleared...
no blood... no hair... i just whiffed!

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

that sucks MA. better luck next time

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

If her tail was down you probably hit her. I killed 2 doe this year with my ml and there was no blood trail. I knew they were hit because of their tails being down. They only went about 35 yards. You might want to recheck.

RE: Official Team 2 Rut Busters Thread
 

we took the track about 200 yards... no blood, no hair, no beds, etc... lots of fresh snow, so something would have shown.. stick sick.. at least it wasn't a racker!
Her tail was down though....
