You other Ohio boys been able to get out much lately? Tomorrow should be pretty good. My son and I will be going back out to our honey hole. It will probably be in the mid 20's with hardly any winds. It will be mostly cloudy with rain coming in around noon. Get out there and get one down!!!!!

Last night was unbelievable!!!! Got to watch an OMG buck, probably pushing mid 170's locked down with a doe. 3 other smaller bucks came in and he chased them away. I got to watch him for about an hour. Made 4 scrapes and wouldn't come any closer than 50yds with no shot through the trees. I threw everything I had at him, but he wouldn't budge. It was tuff sleeping last night...... I'll be back at it this evening in the same stand. Hopefully he has breed her and will be back in to check his scrapes.

Sounds awesome buckeye. Good luck with him!!!!! Listen to this story. I went out this morning and got settled into the stand around 5:40. It started with a light rain about 5:45. It increased a little in intensity and finally quit about 6:15. I heard what I thought was a deer walking to the right of my stand about that same time. It was still fairly dark and it was like 10-15 minutes away from shooting light. I thought I would give a little bleat on the can and see if I could hear anything coming my way. As soon as I did that this huge buckjumps up that was about 18 yards in front of me. He scared the crap out of me. I didn't realize he was even there. The ground was soft and with that light rain he must have snuck in and bedded down without me even knowing he came in. I told my son had I known he could have had himself a huge one there. Well, we will be back at again soon. Good Luck TO All!!!!!

My buddy BTBowhunter(outfitter with Tall Tines) told me two of his hunters moved in on the stand I hunted last Sat.(Saw several real good bucks in it).
They killed two good ones from the stand this week. None were what I saw there. Guy #3 hit one but lost it and Guy #4 passed up a good one the last afternoon in camp.
Nice guys that had a great week in camp.
I plan to return on Sat but not sure where to hunt. That stand may well be burnt out for a while.
I plan to hunt Sat and Sunday afternoons. Bucks are chasing now, saw another this AM on way to work.
Good luck all-
