Got to go out for a little bit this morning and had a pretty decent hunt. It was foggy as all get out, maybe 40 yards visibility. I had a spike come through followed by 3 does abot 5 minutes later. As I was watching the does, out of the fog walks in a nice looking 130 inch 8pt. He stood at 20 yards for ever before finally deciding to go check on the does. I've got about 300 pics of this deer and his twin. Both will be quality deer next year if they make it. He ran them into a little thicket, but his brother ran them back out. It was exciting to see them up and moving a little. After church on Sunday I will be at the Cabin for a week. Hopefully I can get some deer on the ground. If nothing else, it will be good to get a way. Rut seems to be really kicking in around Southern IL. Good luck and be safe.
