I hunted last Sunday night when the wind first started blowing. Lots of does, no bucks. Did not get out this week due to work and high winds outside. Theweather is suppose to stabalize today. This week-end should be good with cool temps in the AM.

My buddy Todd whacked a beauty of a buck earlier this week in SE Iowa. Solid 10 pointer with a kicker. Probably in the 150" range. I'll let him post the photos when he gets around to it.
