The standing corn around our place is killing the movement to my area. Hopin for it to pick up here the next two weeks. Bringin out the calls this weekend so maybe they'll respond to those. We'll see...

Yesterday afternoon I had 5 doe and 1 lil basket 6 point in range. I prefer not to shoot any of the doe at this point. They are my live decoy for the big bucks when the rut kicks in.

3 hunts this year I have doe all around me " find the doe core area's and the big boys will come trolling".

Will head back out maybe tomm. if the rain is light.
Goodluck all and be safe.

Been skunked the last two days. Rubs are appearing everywhere, but I have yet to see a doe on my property. I've seen some smaller tracks so I'm pretty sure they are around, but it's kinda got me a little worried. I would hate for the bucks to have to leave my area to chase does.

Went out yesterday afternoon, seen nothing. Went out this morning and at 7:45 am I had a spike buck walk right under my stand and walk around for ten minutes before he moved off. Will try again this afternoon.

Slow Slow Slow.. sighting are WAY down from last year but the next two weeks or so should be better. If it isn't pouring rain it's been very windy and most of the time it's been both.
I will be hitting it hard and I may well just shoot any darn thing that comes along. I may have to count points after they are on the ground.
Good luck guys!!

45 degrees out with a steady 5mph ssw wind. Great for one of my favorite stands and we never get the right wind for that tree it seems. I should be dragging in a few hours. Gots to go as it's a good hike in and even though sunrise is not until 7AM I better hit the road.
Go get them boys!!
