hey guys! Just got in from my trip to VA, it was awesome! My dad killed a real nice bear on Friday morning, we didn't get it weighed but we're guessing 250ish! Posted a pic here, he saw another bigger bear the next day too! We've put a TON of work into our property there and it is really paying huge dividends, I saw deer every sit, and saw a bunch of different bucks, just not the big one I'm after. I had a 110" 8pt doggin a doe at 25 yrds last night. The only bears I saw were a sow w/ two cubs last night, they came in right at dark and kept me in the tree for an hr after dark!! talk about un-nerving...

They came w/in 8 yrds of my tree, just wish it would have been a big boar or lone sow!
I stopped by Andy's (FSH's) place on the way home, that was a blast, he showed me around and he's got some great places to hunt! Thanks again Andy! My wife is lovin' the apple cider! can't wait to get down for a day to hunt.
I checked my cam on the mineral lick and food plot when i got home and had some more good shots of the 10 pt. They're keeping the clover/chicory mix just about flat. This is a good view to see the size of this buck. I'm gonna try to get out a bunch this week. With seeing some more photos of this deer I now know he's a shooter for sure!
