Congrats!
We gained some laughs, seen a few deer and Levi got a taste of the real buck fever

Skunked.
I walked that shelf at 10:30 and pissed in the scrape while I was at it. Drew him out of hiding. First decent pic he's given me in a week or more.

AwesomeFun ground hunt, he came in perfect to hit the scrape at 8yrds with the boys xbowMeat is the goal this year, quick and easy recovery with the youngest 2.
Just hanging out in the middle of those pictures trying not to laugh. Time to focus on Ty and enjoy the rest of the season.

Sooooo, I learned that I have two one antlered bucks running around .....lol. That buck that had the cops called on himself this morning ..... started his escapades at the house next to what I talked about first. He was in THAT neighbor's driveway & that woman was out with her dog. The buck was moving in on her before she ran into the house. He started thrashing her shit around. The top of their driveway has a 20 ft drop off & he walked over to the edge & fell off ....lol...I shit thee not ! .....& broke an antler. That ruckus caught the attention of my other neighbor's wife who was getting ready for work. We actually shared the same office before I retired.
Anyway, the buck started messing with their stuff & that's when the sheriff was called ......what a day !

I'm in . Not much day time movement here yet . Today I start my week vacation, not liking Monday and Tuesday temps . Good luck this morning!!!
We're in for her first ever morning hunt. It'll be a quick one since we need to leave at 9:15 for big sister's basketball game. We brought coffee, hot chocolate, and a heater, so we'll at least be cozy!

Poor kid is from the instant gratification generation! Good thing old dad put a nice floor in here and is willing to listen to a heater rather than nature! Looks like a skunk here. She thinks she's bad luck. I hate to tell her I'm the problem!

Rut is in full gear. 2 8 points chasing doe. Both grunting. Got to hear one wheeze. And one was drooling while he was sniffing the licking branch…and peeing on the scrape. Had a front row seat! But both were too young. 3 bucks, 4 doe just this morning. Also before the sun came up I got to listen to a great horned owl for 30 minutes. But it all started at 4 am when I went to the bathroom and sat on a damn wasp. Luckily he didn’t have much of a sting as he was half frozen. But he got my leg and finger.

I'm done. Had a good hunt on my last day and last hunt, saw 10 or 12 deer, was right in the middle of them jousting and chasing. Picked Pine because of the doe activity around the feeder, winds weren't good,, chancy but its been a great morning, rising thermals area with 0 wind. I Dont for the life of me understand how I didnt get winded. Two older does came out and I thought for sure that was it.... they never twitched at as close as 12 yds and they were upwind and downwind.. per the milkweed.
8 or 9 does were within 120yds of in every direction, not expected, but they were creeping along the edge of a bowl. Some came out to feed and hit the feeder. A fork worked thru, chasing, then a 8pt rolled up broadway to within 12yds. Still no spooking, another basket 6pt worked they scent checking like that previous 8pt.
Spike came out, but thenl feeder then alerted behind me. The way the wind was blowing.. Calmed down for a min. Heard then saw a big bodied fork and another small buck same time I saw this 8pt 5' from my tree at 21' high. Antlers were outside the ears and big body with decent tine lenght. Said heck with it, last day, etc, shooter and he walked out, stopped, the other 3 bucks were watching him, drew, remembering to bend and "STAY AWAY FROM THE SHOLDER" LoL. Which at a steep angle isn't bad advice at all.
Got the pin on and pass thru with a NAP spitfire Maxx, thought it looked good. He ran 30'-40' behind some brush, with some pine needles ... never heard or saw him again.
So. Sat an hour, texted my buddies and Mrs. Arrow looked great
, walked a half circle at 50yds not looking for blood or wanting to cross his trail but sneak back change and check out the track... no need. He was piled up right where I saw him last.
The bigger ones should get bigger. Xmas dinner venison loins secured.
Good luck to those still hunting!
