Could be. He's running with a "more" juvenile buck.....just like that one was. I've seen him several mornings.....likely coming from that woodlot on every occasion......heading west. I've seen him coming out from the west a lot of evenings.....every time we get a west wind.

We can't hunt him, together, in the evenings.....unless he's working north to that woodlot we hunted by the horse pasture. by the time you get here....the acorns will be falling pretty good. So....we'll go in there at least one evening. That's also the spot I went into last tuesday in the rain....and discovered about a dozen trees freshly rubbed in a 30' radius. Something's rubbing those trees.....although I've seen SEVERAL juvenile bucks in that area.

Hope to make you think about it.;)

Just back from the farm, guys. Put out a new stand in a great funnel. Not much sign there right now but I wont hunt it till the rut when the action heats up. Shot my bow a couple days too.I went dove hunting but it SUCKED. Worst dove opener ive ever seen.

Heading to Bass Pro tomorrow to buy another trailcam to put out this weekend.

Went out shooting tonight to hopefully erase yesterday's fiasco off the slate. MUCH better today. Shot 3 three shot groups at 40yds with a 2", 1.5", and yes a 1" group. My 30s were pretty decent. I shot more at 30, and was hitting the 2" dots pretty well (not as much as I would like). 20yds and in (I did incline shots here, too) were blazing in. Definitely a confidence booster. Not ready to take on the likes of Rob or the Matts yet, but I'm improving:D

Was out shooting a bit tonight to. I stayed at 50 and 55 yards for the most part but stuck a few in the 12 ring on the 40 yard target as well.;)

Still have to wash all my camo but all else is ready. I'm walking the last mile home every night after work, 1.2 miles but near a 500' change in elevation so it's all up hill. The bows are ready, working on some conditioning and still need to do my wash...LOL

The days will pass quickly now. The leaves are turning, the corn drying and cool mornings. Its really feeling it guys.

Hey, the fat kid that wouldn't dream of walking your hill thinks maybe Friday he wants a piece of that 50 yard buck, maybe even the black of his eye.[8D]

Yup, I park at the very bottom and jog as far as I can, walk the rest a very steady pace. My goal is to jog it all.
