I agree. We just got over the full moon and more corn is out. I have high expectations for this weekend. I have too much to get done at the office this week to sneek out early to sit in the stand.

Good luck everyone.

I think all of us could have scored bucks the size that the Dark Horses have been shooting. I guess we need everyone to score. Or we can take the lead if 5 more of us shoot bucks that are 140" + !

I guess I really need to get after it and do my part. Good thing Thanksgiving is coming up. That gives me some time off of work. Hopefully I wont still be searching for a buck come Thanksgiving!

Yea im starting to get the "panicked" feeling that i won't drop a buck for the 2nd year in a row. I mean 40 sits is alot to not have something on the ground. Well see how it goes....one thing i know is for us to win we have to drop alot of bone fast!

I hear ya talking, i went out yesterday afternoon, i actually could have drawn my bow on 3 bucks, all were dinks, i saw 2 other bucks, either of which i would have pulled the trigger on, just they went down the wrong side of the river bed. be back out this afternoon. Siman, you know as well as i do, they dont get big if you shoot them small. I for one, will eat my tag if i cant shoot something inthe 140 + range.

I wont eat my tag, but I will stick it on a doe! This whole not being able to really hunt during the weekdays sucks! I'm ready for the weekend. But first, I need to clear up these 790 piping clashes with ductwork! Should have it done tomorrow sometime.

Yea i have passed on about 12 small bucks this year with 7-8 in killing range. Last year i think i passed on around the same amount if not a little more. The biggest one i didnt attempt to kill this year was the 2.5 year old 5 point. He was a 3 point last year that i passed 3 or 4 times (he will be a good buck at 4.5 prolly). I can see that passing small bucks works (evident by the 5 mature bucks in my area) and i will continue to do so. The one time that i took a shot ata small buck in the last 2 years was when i was filming with my brother.
