Sorry i havent checked in for a while. Things have been very slow in my neck of the woods thus far. i have passed on many bucks this season but none have met my personal standards. It seems all the two and three year olds from last season have completely disappeard with only two being spotted, one being in the high 140's and one that my grandfather shot during gun season that might break 130. So far i have yet to see the 140 with my own eyes but he has been seen two times in the past two weeks so my hopes are still high. Hopefully the two week break after gun season will allow him to settle back into old routines.

Honestly i havent been out hunting as much as i have in seasons past. Between school and work i can usually only get out 1 or 2 times a week. It has been quite a crazy year school-wise for me.

Hopefully we'll get an extremly cold and hard december this year, which will force the bucks to start to feed. Right now this is my only option for getting a buck this year.

Good Luck to the rest of the International Harvesters

PS: Dave, Congratulations on such a great buck.

PPS: Dave, since your not going to need any more luck or skill this season, please mail whatever you have left to me.
