My rifle season opened last weekend, but the bucks are not moving at all during daylight hours. I'll be in the woods the next three days, so hopefully my luck will change. What about the rest of you?

Guys, I took this 6 pointer with my muzzleloader Sat. evening. The bucks are not moving at all, and besides a couple of spikes, this is the first racked buck I have seen since bow season opened back on Oct. 1st.
right main beam - 13.5" left main beam - 14"
G1 - 2.5" G1 - 2.2
G2 - 3" G2 - 3"
C1 - 2.75" C1- 2.75"
C2 - 2.50" C2- 2.50
C3 - 2" C3 - 2"
Total score = 63
Forgot to put inside spread 12"

FYI, even though it was a 6 point you still get 4 circumference measurements. You just pick a point about 1/2 way between the last point and the end of the main beam. Should give you at least 3 more inches. Even if it was a spike you get 4 circumference measurements. Just space them out appropriately along the main beam.

My season also comes in on Saturday. I have my stand picked out and there has been some good movement through the area. I am off work friday so I plan to get in two more bow hunts before the season starts.
