Just waiting for the season to get going. Nothing really to report.

Season starts next Friday for me. I've got a lot of good bucks on camera, along with a lot of sign littered around the farm. Hopefully I'll be able to put an early season buck on the ground.

I saw 11 does and fawns and 2 bucks tonight but all were too far to shoot. Oh well.

Nice to see you on the same team as me again. Hopefully this team can do as well as our rifle team did last year. Hope you have as good of an archery season this year as you did with the rifle last year! Good luck!

I keep seeing the same 3 2 year old 8 point bucks
2 could be twins ( might be brothers )

I have only goten 1 look at the 10 point that I am hunting for
But the corn is starting to come off

That should move him into areas I can hunt
Not out in the middle of a 400 acre corn feild

Well guys I had nice first day saw a few bucks and almost had a shot at a real nice shooter. He came in to about 50yds but I couldn't convince him to come any closer:mad:. He spared a little with a smaller buck but hung out about 60yds away. I'm pretty sure he was the 10pt I have on the trail cam but not positive. Like they say close only counts in horseshoes and hand gernades. Good Luck everyone.

I've hunted the first 2 afternoons here in Illinois.

Friday, as I was hanging my Lone Wolf stand and sticks, a doe and button came in and busted me. I got settled in and right before dark a mid 150's 10 pointer and 2 does fed about 150 yards away.

Today, I didn't see a deer and right before dark I had a 120's 8 pointer come into about 60 yards, before catching my wind.

They are calling for temps to drop into the 30's tonight, so I am headed out tomorrow for my first A.M. hunt. Best of luck team.

My bad luck continues, I had a doe at 25 yards quartering away but I think my arrow deflected off a small branch and I ended up just grazing her shoulder blade. No penetration at all. No blood or hair on arrow. I seen the doe a few minutes after I shot and noticed a 4"diameter spot of blood on her shoulder blade. She licked the wound and walked off. I'm not worried about that one making it. Hopefully I used up all my bad luck tonight. I got a stand set up for the rut today, I can't wait for that first and second week of Nov.
