Good luck KS...For our teams sake stay away from those mulies. They only count 83%. Of course unlsee its a monster.:D

Just kidding, hopefully we can get on the board after this wekend.

Thanks... my 2 cents on the Mulie 83% rule. It's Bull****####. Anybody who has every tried to kill a Big Mule Deer with a bow would feel the same. Being on the ground, in open country, with a big mule deer is one of the hardest kind of hunts a bowhunter could be successful in, IMO. And taking points away from a person that can do it is wrong. Just my 2 cents.

Good Luck Guys! We'll get some points on the board! :)

Go gett'm guys. We have some catching up to do. Next week our temps are supposed to drop and stay in the 40's during the day. Hopefully that'll kick the bucks into action and I'll be able to tag one for the team. Good luck.

Same here 902. Next weekend, temps in hi 40's, low in 30's. Our fist cold break of the year. A couple other hunters I've talked to say they've been 20-30 deer a day in a spot I'll be hunting.

This weekend had two does bed down 40 yds. from my stand, jst out of range. Me and my buddy sat there til 11a.m. waiting for them to get up.[:@] When they finally did, they walked up the hill and bed down again. We got down and my buddy stalked to within 20 yds. of one (30 mph wind gusts help the stalk) and took a doe.

I have high hopes for this weekend.

I took another doe today. I was hunting a small (30 yard wide) funnel that deer have no choice but to go through it. I saw 3 doe quickly coming my way. All the deer I've seen come through this funnel jog through it. Must be too tight of an area for them. Anyway I didn't want to shoot a doe, because I was hoping a buck might be following them. But, they stopped dead underneath my stand and started getting nervous. I had some doe estrous and buck tarsal glands out, so maybe they caught wind of them. They started to turn around and head back for where they came. So I took the closest one, hoping they'd run the rest of the way through. No luck, she dropped in her tracks and the other 2 ran back up the trail. Oh well, more meat for the freezer. The bucks are chasing hard now and I'm still confident I'll see more. Good luck guys.

went out this morning and saw two does, but no buck following them. I found a good scrape and a couple of rubs while doing my mid morning scout today. I will be in there this evening to see what I can find. I also saw a good buck today, but unfortunately he was on the viewing area of the Ranger Station. My mouth was watering. He had his head down the whole time chasing a doe. It's on in Oklahoma boys. Good luck

It's on here in Missouri too. I saw a nice buck chasing a doe in a field about 4:30 yesterday while I was driving. I'll be hunting hard this whole weekend.

I know what you mean DWD. I'm in college too and am comtemplating if I should skip my 3 oclock class to get in the woods or not.
