I posted the team 14 under his name in order to keep that list straight. Tomorrow I will replace him with the next person on the list.

Welcome Treebeard. Glad to see you have shown up. Good luck this year.

Well guys been out as much as I can and to this point havent even seen a deer. Looks like the corn is about to come down so maybe that will get them moving some.

Out on Saturday saw one and a flash of horns. Will probably on go out 2 or 3 times before the end of October then have two solid weeks off for hunting.

Guys, I've been busy. Haven't gone out yet in NC. I understand there is a monster running around my neighborhood. Usually is but I don't hunt too much in NC. I usually hunt neighborhoods in MD. I have a good friend who essentially provides me with a private guided service. Bottom line, if the deer move, he knows where and what time. He litterally doesn't work between September and february. If it's a good day to hunt, he's hunting.

I told him I didn't think I would hunt up here this year. He said, yes you are. Lol. We shall see. I will shoot something if I can get motivated.

Good luck guys.

Just got back from the lease yesterday, going back tomorrow. I saw my big 10 on Saturday but did not get a shot. I have been seeing about 35 deer a day. I have passed on 5 different mature 8 points, 1 large 6 point, and a decent 7 point. I have 2 deer that I am looking for. The 10 that ya'll know about and then a monster 8 point that had been a no show until Tuesday. A buddy that is hunting about 600 yards from me saw him. He has added a 6 inch drop tine since last year. Probably scores between 140 and 150. If we get late in the year I might take one of the other bucks ( 115 to maybe 125 ) but for now I am going to hang tight for one of the 2 big boys.

Good luck everyone.

Found a picture of the buck from last year. As far as I know it is the only picture of him. This was another guys setup that is no longer on the lease. My current setup is about 75 yards from here. Remember he has added a 6 inch drop since last year.

John,

That buck is a stud, good luck hunting him. Its amazing how many deer your seeing. Going out tomorrow, but normally the bigs are not up and on their feet until end of October.

All them bucks are good looking deer. I agree, you are seeing alot of deer. Corn/Beans are starting to come down around me now so the pattern is going to change, and with that, I hope my luck as well.
