Thanks Landon, coming from you is a compliment. This deer was taken by an adjacent piece that I didnt get a chance to show you and Eric. Its kind of hidden out of the way with thick cedars with few open hardwood areas. By the way, I had the smoke because I took my last Grizzly dip an hour earlier.

The rut is on big time in these woods. I had two tinks wicks hanging and dropped him two feet from the one he had scented. He was in full stride, not even turning his head or lookin up after about a 5 minute session of rattling, grunting and scrapin a set of antlers from last year on my tree.

After callin a buddy to help me pull him out I was heading to the dirt road and jumped two more less than 40 yrs from where mine was laying...both medium sized bucks. The nice thing about mine was he was at least 5 yrs old judging by his teeth and head coloring. he would have been a perect 10 if he hadnt recently broken one about a 1/2 inch from his left beam. His glands were soakin wet and he was ready for some action when he met his demise. I shot straiht down through his spine and heart shot him. Dropped where he was.

You need to come up and get some huntin while the rut is in full swing this month. That 10 point I arrowed and tracked through the night was almost as big. Since I was way lost and had no more light left I built a fire and sat and listened to some serious action. A few I heard running through the woods sounded like elephants, and where I ended up was a place I had not scouted. Tons of rubs, scrapes and trails.

Get your arse up here and get you one, I have several on film that are in the area and just gettin fatter. Its almost like the acorn mast has disappeared. Either the quirrrels have gotten all the goodies or their pallates have changed for green stuff. Both my plots are full about 30 minutes before sundown. I have three nice stands on trails entering the field with plenty of vision for the alphalfa and clover.

Brett....come get you some! JoeyG is the only other hunter on here that has hunted this piece and knows it well. It seems that its the only sanctuary they have for a few miles without dogs. The big creek keeps them on the other side!
