Storm
We had freezing rain and sleet yesterday afternoon and 12" of snow last nite on top of the snow we already had and it is suppose to snow another 6" to 8" tonite. I hope that they have the roads cleaned off good enough to go hunting this weekend!

Well guys i'm down to the last three days of the season. I have been seeing alot of deer while hunting.
I hope I did not screw-up last weekend - I passed on 4 bucks that would go around 130" waiting for a bigger one that would come to the food plot but time ran out. I have found them but there are three food plots in the area and I have not been sitting at the one the big boys are using at the time.
Its going to be -20 degrees 2moro morning but i'm going to be hunting all weekend.
Anybody else still hunting?

Last ten minutes of season.
I passed on this buck several times the last two weeks but with only ten minutes of the season to go and the freezer empty I went ahead and shot him. 140 yard shot with my cva optima 50 cal. he is not anything that I would normally shoot but with the season and snow that we have had we needed the meat.
He's just a small broke up 8pt but a filled tag none the less, I would of shot a doe but there were none in the feild at the time.
I will get a picture and score up later today. I am glad it's over for the year now we can get on to chasing them gobblers.
