Rattling for bucks

im aiming to buddy!!

pulling in to the drive way yesterday.....big doe runnin across yard to woods. went out for a smoke last night bout 11pm........turned on porch light, opened door...walked out.............3 in the yard eating.....1 big doe, and 2 yearlings. all i could see was tenderloin and chops standing in my yard.

 

been hunting hard since october..shot my 9 point out of my climber on 10-9, and didnt see another deer out of it since. Went out this morning, had 5 come by..2 within bow range, but didnt want to take a baldy, plus they were on the smaller size..Oh well, still debating on wether to go out this afternoon or not..

 

did I miss the pics of that 9? Congrats anyway if I did.

 

yes apparently.



I did see 5 does this morning, but after this guy, I want some more head gear for the wall

 

^oh yeah I seen that one. Very nice indeed!!

 

Well my son and I hunted all day yesterday. We had a few does come in around 8 and my son got a 20 yard shot. Problem was they were feeding through so slow he had to hold his gun too long without a rest and he got a little wobbly I believe. Clean miss. We sure had fun though and plan to do it again this afternoon/evening. For 10 years old I'm sure impressed how he can hunt with me all day. We came out for 2 hours to eat lunch, but the rest of the day was spent in the woods enjoying each others company......(and also seeing who could fart the most)

 

look at the farting like deer grunts.....and make a contest of it......loudest...best sounding,etc. i fart in the woods alot as well.

 

yessiree....get nice and relaxed and look out.....I'm raisin' and teachin' 'em best I can ya know

 

damn Stan!!!! nice deer bro!!

 

X2!!

 

That is awesome Stan!! Congratulations!! Great buck with some excellent character....a kicker and a crab claw on the left side. Nothing like the excitement and memory of actually altering the direction of a buck and bringing him right to your location. Great job.

 

Well, looks my son isn't going to score on a deer this year. We had a small buck too far out in the field, and bumped a few does on our way out last night. But I can tell you, him and I had some great time in the field together and his hunting skills are getting much better..........................I might get out a few times in late bow if the weather and work cooperates.

 

Well fellas, lets fire up them horns!!!

Hunted all last weekend to no avail. Got to work this weekend but hope to catch some time in the evenings before we lose DST......

it's 2010 and lets here those tips and stories.................

 

Going to sit in a tree all day tomorrow and the weather is going to be brisk. Bucks should be on the move and the horns are gonna get hot. Shoot straight.

 

Good luck...pics pics and more big buck pics

 

Yeah man Dave. We'll see. Definately will enjoy my weekend off work for sure.
Same back to you if your heading out!

 

Seen three different bucks last Saturday. This Saturday is the gun opener and my kids will be packing their new 44 mag rifle and I will be packing the 44 mag pistol along with my bow. It's gonna be a great time!!

 

I posted my son's first deer in his own thread. What a terrific memory.


Hunted with both kids this weekend and never seen a deer. All the blazing guns have the deer run into deep cover. Going to bring out other tactics over the hoildays.

 

good luck Hoosier, let us know. It's like summer here for the next couple days and the wind is wrong, so much for going in the woods. I'm actually kinda with this season, lack of activity in the woods, but that's hunting right?
