congrats again Ryan!! thats a dandy buck!!! i might have to start hunting ohio!!



as for me, i pulled a dark till dark sit in the "honey hole hill" 0930 and a deer came running through on the edge of the red brush about 50yds away..."oh boy its gunna be a buck chasing a doe!!!" wrong...just a doe, i believe..too fast to get binocs on...she went into the red brush and disappeared. someone must spooked her across the road or something...

turkeys flew down but NEVER moved more than 100yds from their roost...my guess was the high winds kept them from moving much...

330ish i believe i spot a deer standing infront of me 20yds away lol...wind was fierce..couldnt hear anything..plus i had a thick winter full face mask and a winter hat on so i basically had earplugs on lol...(ears get infected EASY so i gotta watch it) turned out to the the worlds largest button buck...believe it was the one i seen opening week...watched him for dang near a half hour...

lost him and 15-20 mins later i spot a deer walking to my right...i did hear 1 sound i thought about turning around for, but didnt...pretty sure that one was a doe...maybe my original doe from 0930...maybe he pushed her outta there...wasnt the BB for sure...

half hour after that i caught a glimpse of a deer where i lost the BB...dont know what it was..could been him..could been the new world record..i just caught a glimpse of a rear leg walking outta sight...

that was all she wrote. long cold windy day.....would been a very nice day if it wasnt windy...


wheres this "Rut"?!?!?! im semi disappointed i didnt even see my little bucks.....thought for sure they would been on the prowl hard today....i think the wind had alot to do with it...it was probably 20mph pretty constant..gusts to 25-30 occassionally...it was stiff...
