Well guys I've got a little bad news. You can read the story on the bowhunting forum, but to make a long story short I shot what I thought was a doe last night and it turned out to be a spike. SORRY!

Nothing wrong with that.... Congrats on the spike!
As for me, I'm going to be hitting it pretty hard this weekend. Was out scouting the property with all the buck pics and I think I found a pretty good staging area. It's a strip of woods right next to one of the corn fields that leads to the bedding area. This place was loaded with rubs and scraps and major trails leading to the corn. I setup a stand and got out of there. I'll sneak into the stand early in the morning and maybe have an all day sit.

What a day!! Felt like staying in the cabin with what I heard going on outside at 430, but I went out and took my butt whooping like a man.[8D] No deer today, a four point on Friday night. Looking for a big week. My B Day is on Thursday and Halloween is also a great time to be in the woods. I love this week for so many reasons. I get the best girt every year. (the rut turning up)

Yep, it's heating up around here!! Father in law took a nice 8pt on my property Sat. evening. Probably around a 110"-115". I passed on a 110" 8pt Sat. morning that came in to some light rattling. Didn't hunt Sat. night b/c I was watching OSU get there butt kicked![:@][:@]Hunted last night and saw two little bucks and 4 does.I start vacation Friday and they are calling for a mixture of snow and rain all week.

Hey guys in case your wondering in still above the green grass my computer crashed so to get on here i have to stop over at my parents house till ours gets back.
Any ways hunting has been good i have been seeing a few nice bucks but nothing that really jumps out at me. I have been hunting on some public land and seeing only 1-6 deer per nightand decided to sit on some private land that i had permission on well the first night i had 19 deer come past 3 bucks 1 of which i have the sheds from 2 years ago probably go around 135 now the other 2 were 2 and 3 pointers. Last monday night i went back to the private land and found a dead buck that was gut shot with a broad head small 8 he should be cleaned up by now we are over run with coyotes i'll get the rack sometime this week if it's still there.
As some of you guys know i'm a outfitter well last week i got a phone call from my PA hunters that were to be coming up and they cancelled due to there work. So if any of you guys would like a last minute hunt I'm in a deal making mood season ends Nov 8.
Good luck to you guys and congrats to those that shot does already
