It seems we've quieted down. Lets get a recap on how we've done and what we're planning on the rest of the way out.

Me, i've done squat. Not giving up though. Planning hunts on the farm I've sub leased and public land in the upcomming weeks. All depends on weather. We all know it gets alot tougher once the guns start going off. I'll hunt shotgun too, but my hearts in the Bow hunting.

I know 6pt has scored a buck, DEBob has scored a doe with a long bow if I remember right. Lemond, have you even been out?

Lets all keep the talk going. The seasons still young and the main Rut is just around the corner. Pre Rut is full swing from what I've read.

Good Luck to all!

NICE to c this..i am a BOW hunter only. i love hunting, but i have an 8yr old that is talented...."period". i have been spending time with him. i hunted 2 wks ago, but hunted the wrong CROP. hunted the corn...should have hit the acorns. i will hunt the coming week and i have found that my old spot is.."HOOOOOTTTTT" scouted it today and it is all torn up i will keep u posted and i will have pics...i promised u that and i will deliver...trust me

what r the deer doing in your areas?? they r hitting the persimmons here...POOP has seed galore in them and droppings all over the areas where the trees are.

hunting in the morning..i will post when i return from the hunt in the evening..after homework

i hunted the morning...8-12..didnt have any action going on, but they r there. i was excited at the sign around. i hunted from the T2. i will be at again next week. the blk max is getting jumpy

It was a recurve but a doe none the less. Been out alot...just not near the computer when I get home<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> Lots of deer movement. Seeing small bucks almost every time out lately. Went with a friend last night and he rattled in a 2.5 year old 8 pt. Made a bad hit that gave us a difficult tracking job. Found him though!! Got my blood pumping!! The deer are still very much in the oaks but beans are a close second. Scrapes are getting hit daily (well, maybe nightly!!!)

If the rain ends tomorrow morning like they are saying, i'll be heading out to the leased farm tomorrow afternoon. It'll be interesting to see if there is any corn left that I threw out. Also, unless people have trespassed, it'll be the first time the deer have been hunted there this year. I'm cautiuosly optomitic.

Good luck to whomever heads out tomorrow!

thanks for the info...the acorns are still dropping..there is a tree where i live and there are acorn everywhere...there are no deer in my development

This is only my second or third post. Still new to bow hunting (2nd yr). Dont have any private land too hunt so have been hitting public land. Mostly C&D canal DE city area, Have had several in range, but no clear shot opportunities, did get to draw on 1 but it busted me (big doe).Have hunted augustine a couple times few weeks ago, called in a doe but it knew something was wrong.Hit whiteclay, a couple afternoon hunts, nothing in range. Starting to get discouraged but i know it takes patients(sp?).Still dont know how you experienced guys stay all day.

Hunted today from 2:30 to 6:30pm on the land I leased as planned. The woods is completely flooded. Worse than I've ever seen. AT 6pm I had 2 coming for the stand but about 70 yds out they just turned and walked back the way they came. They didnt wind me or see me. Just didnt want to cross the flooded woods I guess. One was definately a buck, but I couldnt make out how many pts. Thats the way the seasons been going for me. Still alot of time left though. Never give up!!
