Well guys, like I said earlier, my hunting vaction got cut short by my grandmothers death. Slug season is upon us right now so I am just sitting and hoping that nobody shoots my big deer.

But come thanksgiving, I basically have about another week off. I got to reschedule 3 days that were funeral leave until then. So I have to work mon, tues & wednesday and then I am off until the next thursday. Hopefully I can get something in those 7 days.

Our deepest sympathies..IBM

IBM,

My sincere condolences on losing your Grandmother...they can never be replaced.

I hope you bag a good one in her memory on your time off.

Hey IBM, I am sorry to hear about your grandmother! I wish you luck out there and your gram will be their with you in spirit! It seems as though the time is comming for my grandmother as well. She has alzhemiers disease and has been pretty bad lately!

sorry to hear that IBM... kinda sucks i know how ya feel, lost mine last year... our prayers will be with you and yoru family. take your time and dedicate that hunt to her.


Hammerman, this morning i went back to where we hunted yesterday morning... MAN you missed it.. that 8 pointer was walking across the street into that field behind where we hunted. i saw that lone deer again cant tell if its a buck or doe yet... and then i saw a doe and a fawn then a nice fork buck that looks to be a good deer to keep around for next year.. has some promis.. vefy tall tines and already some width...

this one wasnt the same as thet little 5 with the nub i saw last week... hopefully this wednessday i will be able to arrow that 8 pointer.. mmmm perfectly simetrical.

thanks again for coming hunting with me sorry we didnt see much in shooting range.

Our deepest sympathies IBM,our prayers go out to you,and your family.

I was out hunting all day yesterday and I think someone upstairs was trying to tell me I was waisting my time---lol.First of all the alarm didn't go off and i was a little late getting in my stand.Then to make matters worse,it was real foggy and everything was wet.Anyways I am sitting in my stand,rattling and grunting periodically,then about 8:00 rolles around and im looking down the hardwoods into a swamp thicket where the deer like to travel to and from.I decide to take a look behind me and then off to my left and when I do a small 8 point is standing on the trail maybe 20 yards looking in my direction.This is the same trail I came down to get in my stand.We have a stare down for about 2 min and he decides to head back into the pines where he came from, I gave it a couple grunts and he looks my way and just keeps walking---bummer I said.Now if it had of been cooler and dry then I would have heard him come and been ready for him.Not sure if i would have shot him anyways,he was a young one,but still would have like to been prepaired.Remember it was a little foggy at this point,the leaves were wet so you couldent hear anything walking and water dripping from the trees constantly.
Now it only gets worse------------At 2:15 my buddy meets me at the gate for an afternoon hunt.We are getting dressed in the field discussing where we will be sitting and he decides to sit on the ground looking over a small field where we have spotted some does.Well I decide to go back to the stand location where i was in the morn,hopefully I would see the small 8 or another one working the area.Anyways I get to my stand at around 2:35,put out some doe pee(hot scrape)Set myself in my stand for a hunt till dark.I proceeded to give it a few grunts as I usually do when I get myself settled in to ease the deer for any noise I have made.I was sitting for maybe 20 min .The weather had turned beautiful,no fog,everything dried up,and no wind,you can hear everything in the surrounding woods.All intill the next door neighbour comes screaming down the trail on his own property with his 4 wheeler and trailer.My stand is about 50 yards off his property line.Anyways this joker waves to me as he drives by(knows where stand is located)Stops all but 100 yards from my stand ,gets off his 4 wheeler and procedes to start up his chain saw and cut wood now for the next 2 hours,man i was pissed.I couldent get out of my stand and move because it would of buggered up my buddys hunt,he was at the end of the trail,looking over the field.I was a rock stuck in a hard place.If I walked into the bush to get to a new location then it would be the same bush my friend and i were watching.So i sat there intill dark just shaking my head.
Sorry for rambling on but i had to do a little venting.Tomorrow is another day and I feel good this year I will get one,just have to turn my luck around.Anyways good luck to the rest of you guys ,and please lets not have a repeated day like mine--------lol[]
