Hunted yesterday evening ... Seen 7 does and that was it.. They were all a few hundred yards behind me.. Moving the stand to the other end of the timber where they have mostly been using lately ..

The rut is starting to hit a little in my area. Had a real nice 145" 8 pointer come out following does around.

This weekend is going to be some primo hunting! Rut will be here. Nice cool 40-45 degree weather.

This weekend should definitely be some awesome hunting.. Did some scouting in the crappy weather the past 2 days and found a area just tore up with scrapes and rubs... Hung a tree stand in there yesterday evening...

Seen alot of bucks chasing does this evening... Some pretty nice bucks but no monsters yet... Trying to hold out for a beast !!

Hunted again this evening.. Bucks were chasing does alittle bit not as active as it was yesterday.. Had a buck n doe 15 yards away but he wasnt a shooter size.. Seen another buck but couldnt get a good look at him through the timber and seen alittle spike.. Movement seemed to stop at 530.. They were really moving 3 to 5 this evening..

Hey guys, been working 7 days a week lately but did manage to get a couple hunts in after work. went out tuesday and hunted an island, had two does come in and misjudged my yardage and shot low. climbed down out of my stand and got my arrows and not 5 mins after climbing back up a big 10 pt came in on the same trail. not sure if i shot high or he dropped at the shot or a little of both but I hit him in the loin. he stood in front me at 50 yds for at least half an hour then walked off. went to see how the blood looked and started to follow the trail which ran north on the island when my buddy and i look over and see him walking back to the south to catch up with the 2 does. I find my arrow just past where we saw him walking and spook him and he runs off, no more blood after that. I convince my buddy I know exactly where I hit him and if he was going to leave the island he would have but he has food, water and does so well give him a week then try to get a 2nd chance at him. Sorry this is so long but it was quite a hunt even though it didnt end in a harvest and wanted to share it with you guys.

Hunted again this afternoon.. I seen 12 bucks and a bunch of does.. Bucks were chasing does pretty good.. All the bucks were pretty small.. Seen one that looked decent but he never came in.. Could of shot 5 bucks at 10 yards or closer but they were all dinks..

Well I am back from CO. Our camp knocked down 2 elk (one about 300in.), 2 mulies, and a bear. Not to bad and a ton of fun.

As for the measurements I missed.

L R
H1 2.75 2.75
h2 2.25 2.25
H3 2.25 2.25
H4 1.5 1.5

That I think does it so we can get those points on the board.

Can someone help me get it posted?
THANKS!!!!
