I have to agree with you buckeye. This year has been bad for seeing anything huge. I've only seen a few and from a distance. I must be all talk. I'm deffinitely frustrated to no end by being in great spots and seeing no huge ones. I still have a 2 months to prove you wrong but atleast they are starting to show up.
The other news I didn't add is that the state park is being driven this week with Doe only hunts. That is great news for my hunting area. Anyone want to hunt?

Checking in guys. I'm still here and working to get us back on top. I've only been able to get out here and there (four days off for Thanksgiving with only ONE hunt in - rain, rain, wind, rain [:@]), but will be putting in a full weekend coming up. Let's close the deal.

Haven't seen Gutshot's deer on the score card yet..... still going to enter him Gutshot?
Well fellas, I scored tonight. I chose to shoot and stop being picky. Shot a small 6pt. It won't add a ton of inches to our score, but will add some. I had a great night in the stand tonight - had 12 deer all over the woods for over an hour before I took the buck. I was intending on taking a big doe, but she didn't cooperate. I saw 5 bucks total, two were sparring. The biggest of the bunch (told you, I've been seeing ONLY small bucks), finally came in and presented a shot so I took him. My work schedule will not allow me to hunt for the next two + weeks, leaving only a week left of season. I figured I should capitalize and put some venison in the freezer and a couple of points up for us while I have the chance. I'll score and post pics tomorrow. So, who does that leave on our team to bag one? Let's get er' done fellas.

Way to go Bob. We need it. With Gutshot's and yours we should get back up there with in stiking distance.
I have a whole week set aside for hunting and some more time at the end of the month. I may be a little picky that first week. I still have my monster dream. I can't wait to see how much driving the state park will help me this year. If I see a decent one, I will drop him. I'll judge it based on the scoreing system and what we need. So please get him posted.
Thanks again. Let's do it the rest of us.

Congrats Badshot!!! Nice buck!
Weather report not looking good here again for the re-opening of bow season. I am going to lay low for about a week then hit it hard. Within a week to 10 days the 2nd rut should start kicking in and hopefully not many hunters will still be out there...........but I will be.
