    It happens Randy. Glad you found it and got closure. I’ll come take care of that 9 for you. grin

    Back with the rifle this morning. I’ve seen two bucks already including a real nice 8 that was rubbing on a power pole and made a scrape at the base.

    Look up from typing and a third buck was going through. On the move after the rain yesterday.

    Quite the show this morning. Seen 5 bucks now. The bigger 8 and two small 8s are all chasing a doe. The bigger one had her cornered, but then she took off and they all went running. Then a 7 came through licking his lips. hah

    Connected on my biggest bow deer last night! I also connected with my antlerless tag a minute later. It was a hectic few minutes!

    Dude, that is one of the most “classically” handsome typical bucks I’ve ever seen.

    DT, you’ll have better odds playing the lottery. toast I’m thinking about giving up the rifle and bow and just sit with the video cameras

    Last sit for me in NW MN. Trying to fill a antlerless tag. I’ve had a couple fawns out for almost an hour now.

    Heading home in the morning and will hunt the farm over the weekend.

    Pretty bleak here in 169 and 197. Been at it since opener. Seen 8 deer, 7 in the dark driving. Talked to a local today… says plenty of wolves.

    He said wolves took down a deer 20 yards from the front door of the bigfork school, and the school is passing it off on German sheperds! coffee

    Super foggy until about 9:30am. At 10:15 I just happened to look back and saw a sizable buck bounding through the timber/brush about 100 yards behind me. I could tell it was at least an 8 pointer. No chance to get the gun up or shoot, and it was gone to the neighbors land to the east. About 15 seconds later, I heard one lone shot over there.

    Not sure if I’m gonna go tomorrow or not. I’ve seen 52 deer including 16 bucks in 6.5 days of hunting which is a tremendous season for me.

    Windy morning in Iowa. SE wind which is not ideal for my stands. Lone doe, a button buck, and then a young 9 just came by at 20 yards. Was at full draw before deciding not to shoot. I love the November days after the 10th and close to the 20th!

    Lots of shooting around me this morning. 3 shots straight to the south where that giant was hanging out with 4 does for days. Hope they got it my buddy typically hunts there the second weekend so fingers crossed!

    I’m sitting on the ground in an area where we saw a couple last night walking out. Where I first sat down didn’t like as sight to the west was not great. Decided to make a little move and as I got up and look to the west a nice 8 and doe staring at me! Off they went. This was about 10 minutes ago. Barely anybody out now.

    I went up to try and take a doe, didn’t have any movement last evening, but then a bunch this morning and late morning. Let a yearling walk, think it was a nubbin buck. Had another doe get the drop on me putting my phone away lol. Get all loaded up to leave, driving out and a doe comes running right by where I was sitting and crosses the road to the neighbors. Stood at 40 yards broadside lol.

    I boated across to wisco this morning and had another fun sit. Didn’t see any big ones but lots of small bucks and 8 doe. The full moon allowed 0 head lamps to get in. And I did find the highway to venison land.
    I sat all day be got a emergency call to come home at 345. Mama and baby have the pukes. So dad to the rescue

    Thanks guys. Nothing fun in my house tonight. Glad I was able to enjoy the first half the day swaying in a tree with the gale force winds. Was hoping to sneak out in the am but I’m guessing I’ll be tending to my ladies

    You are a good man BC! Both of those girls will love you forever if you need to stay home. It’s dang windy out now. Could be worse I guess it’s not that cold.
