Work sucks. If given the opportunity the upcoming weekends another freezer deer is sounding wonderful. But would end my county limit. Late season can be fun but I'm not sure I want to endure it trying to kill a mature buck. Trying to think outside the box alittle bit for Saturday morning, or i could just sit in my cozy heated box tower blind and wait for the rounds of spooked deer passing through.
Sunked today, you gotta love it when you climb down and it is 15 minutes past light and you hear shots.
Got the next 3 evenings to hunt as a family in pursuit of The Streak. Looking for #17 for the wife this year. Trying to nurse this baby to 20 and she's retiring! By then, I'll have two little deer slayers on my hand and there's only so many deer in the woods. We'll let the girls be the hired guns and she can be an observer. Kaydence is asking if we can film hunts and have our own YouTube channel, so maybe mom will become our camerawoman!

I’m guessing 130”...he’s got decent mass and good beam length and spread, but has short tines.
Someone is feeling that gun season feeling. 
To her credit, she held steady until the caribou showed up, then she dropped the hammer

I haven’t gotten much better pictures of him, he’s new to my stealth as of yesterday morning

Down in Belmont for 2.5 days of gun hunting. Planning to head in with the climber in the morning. A tag is getting punched soon.

Hunted public today. We walked, I saw more deer today than all week combined. 1, shooter buck- I didn’t know was there. He was bedded on a south slope/ shelf; while watching does work up the ridge trying to plan my shot, I took 3 steps towards the steep shelf and up jumped a buck! I saw a rack then his butt as he crashed over the bank out of sight. I was able to scope him for a split second. No shots fired. Good day though. Hunted a piece I’ve only OnX’d and saw great sign and little human sign. Future hunts for sure.
high 130's. can only tell so much from a pic like that, but a respectable 3 1/2 5x5 like him can easily make 140", and he might.
I seen more deer this morning than in a long time. Good luck folks!

Back in the ground blind again today because we're supposed to recieve more rain throughout most of the day, starting in about a half an hour from now.
Saw three unknown deer already, moving just before legal time, plus a big fat bunny and a field mouse. No shots heard in the area yet either.
I'm pretty sure I watched those deer head to thier beds within 100yrds. of me. If so, I expect to see them again at some point later today.
If no antlered deer shows up today, but another good size doe does within the last 1/2 hour, I'll use my last county tag on her cause I want a good gun harvest, then I'll hunt a different county for my buck for the rest of the season.
So, it'll be a crapshoot today, we'll see what happens.
Good luck to anyone huntin today!

Fond memories of Belmont County as a kid. Not hunting, just visiting the house where my Grandmother grew up in Flushing. What a place!
