I'm getting SO FRUSTRATED. I go hunting primarily with one friend of mine. Our first day out (opening Oct. 1st) he scores on a decent size doe... I was happy for him (either of our's first deer)! He starts to slow down on hunting cause we were planning a trip out to lake Carlyle so he was saving his buck tag for them. Here in Illinois you can take 2 bucks with any weapon but no more than 2 a year. So we go to Carlyle and have a horrible weekend, BUT last time out in the stand he comes out with a small buck. Happy for him, a little less than before, but still happy

That was 2 weekends ago, this last weekend we took off from hunting. We went on Wednesday morning and had a small buck come in but was walking away before I saw him. Then he goes out yesterday evening and passes on 3 does and 2 bucks! So I go out with him this morning and we see SQUAT! NADA! NUTHIN'! ZILCH!

UGH! What have I done to offend nature!?! [:@]
