Fluteman's bowhunting log

Good luck on your vacation Greg. Hope ya get a crack at a nice one.

Thanks for the encouragement fellas. Sitting in the oak flat stand as we speak. 33 videos on the cam I put over a scrape the big boy made. Hoping he visited it over the weekend.

Got skunked on stand tonight. Got down and headed down the ridge, running into eight deer feeding my way. Sat tight until they passes, and snuck on out. Had one video of the big eight making an appearance @ 6:24pm Sunday, still plenty of light left. Also had video of a small buck harassing a doe.

Gotta love the daytime scrape visit by the huge 8 Greg! Hope you get a shot at him! Goodluck!

Showering up now and heading back to the oak flat. It's 32 degrees this morning, but no frost or dew. Outta be nice and crunchy out.

 

[Schu72]

Good luck!

Should be a good morning.

 

[DJK Frank 16]

Good luck Greg, keep us posted!

 

[epe]

Good luck man.

 

[Fluteman]

Have had three different does feed around me from 7:30-9. No bone yet. Gonna stick it out til around until 11 or so depending on how the rest of the morning goes.

 

[Fluteman]

Just had a doe move through the field with a good buck in tow. No pushing or harassing, just following...

Toot the flute, Fluteman!

Do you want me to text you? It's the new way to call deer in. Cottis did it for me, and I texted him back yesterday and he had one come in...only works with button bucks right now, but they're a start, right?

Keep warm and stay focus! It could happen at any moment!

Nice dude. Keep after it!!!

 

[Fluteman]

Five total this morning. Deer were consistent passing through, just not what I was looking for. Had a decent buck at the scrape cam last night, then he passes by the stand with his nose to the ground.

 

[finelyshedded]

Gotta love that! That stud 8 is around there somewhere. He'll be by sooner rather than later.

 

[Fluteman]

Back on stand today. Have already had one young buck come through with his nose to the ground grunting. Stay tuned, live updates when I have service.

 

[epe]

Good luck man!

 

[Fluteman]

Two different bucks below me chasing a doe around.

 

[Fluteman]

One buck and the doe back up through the field in front of me. The other in the holler below grunting softly.

Fawn below me now.

Crazy the difference in locations. Dad is up by lowell, has had a 5pt go by browsing -eating. Just had a mature doe around him for 15 minutes and nothing following.
