you dont wanna kill one this early do ya?? my ol man and i went but we werent too serious about shooting anything. at about 100 i had crouched down near a stone wall to cool off a minute and a ****in 6 pointer come hyper grunting right up to me at 8 yds. probably abou7t 140/150 pounder. cute little fella. i winked at him and he trotted off. very cool. i decided to go home and watch the rest of the bruins game after that since i diodnt plan on pullin the trigger anyhow. headed up to camp on tuesday for a week. good luck fellas

I haven't got any problem if I happen to see a nice buck or just the little guy. With my job schedule and all that is going on right now it is not going to matter even a little bit. If it has antlers it fair game.. Right now I am getting ready to head out.
Then I will be back to check on my gram at the nursing home. Priest has already been in and I do not think she has more than a day or two left.. She has lived longer than most of us will so it pretty much her time now.. It is just waiting now and that looks to be just about over..

hahaha nice. i just got home from bingham. had some good fresh snow and it took over 100 road miles barley idl;ing to even cut a buck track and he was a little guy. they need to shut down the top half of the state. the deer heard is in poor poor shape. our friends that run the taggin station have tagged 6 deer so far.......and its not that the deer "just arent movin" its that their just ain any. we went into spots where we have killed some whoppers and places where ive tracked bucks before and some other places whwere we have always found deer and there was nothin. a coiuple biscuit tracks but they wont make the winter i dont believe

Thanks baileym62, she had passed on and I was at the funeral Saturday.. I will be working 5 days and 2 nights this week.. So I will only be able to get out there Saturday morning for a while.. Hopefully I will see one then. I agree with skybuster20ga though. There is not an awfull lot of deer up this way now and the winters have raised ol heck with our deer herd. There is still pockets of them though and I have found alot of scraping activity. I am thinking mostly young bucks and that is OK with me if I happen to see one.. I am not overly concerned though I enjoy getting out there.t week with what time I had I did see a doe every once and a while. No bucks around her though..
