Velvet Fever!
Well, I must admit - I've lasted longer than I thought, but I've got the itch. Drove like hell from Denver yesterday - getting a nice ticket in Central Nebraska, just to make it home to glass last light, and we made it! Didn't see many deer, but getting a good wiff of a cool summer July evening sucked me in and now I'm going after them!
Talked with Craig Niece and Justin Zarr last night, they saw and filmed an incredible number of bucks last night, including some real gaggers! Justin was pretty pumped when I talked to him last night! Friggen sweet guys! It's nice to know that we've got multiple team members out everynight capturing footage of deer in they're areas. Sure is cool seeing a nice buck, and capturing footage is just a big bonus! Fun to share with everyone! Hopefully after filming all week, I'll head back to Michigan this weekend with a couple tapes of monsters! I can only hope-so! Keep at it boys, I love the velvet footage and would like to have even more in next years video, so make sure you're getting good footage eh! |
RE: Velvet Fever!
To bad about the ticket, but some things are just worth bending the numbers on the speed limit signs every now and then.:DI have noticed the batchlor groups around my area are no shows lately compared to three weeks ago :(But the weather has been pretty humid lately. good luck getting those slobs on camera!! ;)

The question is can you hunt it? |

ORIGINAL: TallTines6 Whoa baby! That's a good one! The question is can you hunt it? I don't care who shoots him, as long as they get it on film for next year's DVD. Here's a shot from the back. He's got great height, tines, and mass. He's definitely a stud buck. ![]() |
RE: Velvet Fever!
YEAH!!! That's a good one for sure.
I saw some nice ones last night also. Posted in the bowhunting forum. |
RE: Velvet Fever!
What a buck, man you guys have some awesome genes out there. I was just talking to my dad and it turns out his good friends' brother just closed the deal on a 175 acre lot somewhere in IL, so maybe I'll be out there sometime in the next couple of years:). |
RE: Velvet Fever!
Oh boy Justin, that gets the ol heart rate going!! That is a slob!! |

RE: Velvet Fever!
Well Ghost and Todd. You guys are holding out. I wanna see the pictures of you adventure together this week! How many Booners were seen??????
You guys are killing me. Justin, Awesome buck !!!! I hope one of those guys puts one threw his boiler room, and on video ! He's a tank! |
RE: Velvet Fever!
I've been out 4 times this week and haven't seen squat, in some of my best areas. I think the moon phase is screwed up right now as I've been hearing the same type of report from most guys around me here in Iowa. I'm heading back out on the same quest as everynight - praying for a giant!
|
RE: Velvet Fever!
I took a ride with my dad last night and we saw 2 bucks out in a bean field, and that was it. I got a little video of them from the car, but nothing that great. I'll be out again to check my camera probably on Saturday or Sunday, so hopefully I can see something.
Anothertwo weeks or soand they'll be moving off the beans, so we better get them while we can! |
RE: Velvet Fever!
Justin, this is my first posting, I just registered, I couldnt take it anymore, I had to jump in.
Can I hunt with you this year? he he! That is definately one tremedous monster buck. I sur ehope one of us can let the air out of him! |

RE: Velvet Fever!
Same last night - couple dinks and a few does, other guys further west of here had the same luck!
|
RE: Velvet Fever!
Guys further north of you have been having damn good luck as well Toddie, DAMN good luck. We were glassing a couple really great bucks and all of a sudden a "surprise" walked out into our alfalfa field. It's nice when the 150's start getting dwarfed. ;)

RE: Velvet Fever!
Wow you guys are killing me, My partner and I were over in Clarinda IA for work on thursday night and we drove around for 3 hours and we only saw about a dozen doe's not one buck out in the beans!!! It was also 97 degrees at 10:00 pm so I don't know if they just moved late.. Walt

RE: Velvet Fever!
