Just saying eeks333

As your Life Coach and Bow Hunting Sensei rofl
Sleeves are overrated like more than 3 pins banana

Don't be surprised if that Deer don't walk back in to that feeder tonight or in the Mng Sir if the stars are aligned ...
How close is the nearest water Amigo...not that you haven't thought about that but may not be bad idea to have someone check out the closest air motor ...just a thought

That was the last place we checked before giving up. Split up and one group went to one water and the other group went the other direction.

There really is no doubt he could walk back into a feeder this evening. That side has plenty to choose from grin

Well, as my sensei and life coach, you should know I would never wear one when it is this hot out. Now, Kansas and winter months, you bet your rear I will wear it with pride my friend. I would have won the biggest javi contest if I had been wearing it!!!!

No moved to the other side of the ranch for this hunt. Seems my dad has taken over my other stand in the name of shooting a big bodied 8 pointer he let walk a couple of weeks ago (and I am sure it has nothing to do with the big ten that was seen there grin), so I am moving to his.

Over the years, this stand is notorious for having a few mature regulars that stick around until pre-rut. This year it is two old ten pointers with short tines. I won't shoot either one, but wouldn't mind seeing them. It hasn't been hunted but maybe 3 times this year and this week showed some new bucks moving in and the tens haven't been on camera much, so it is a crap shoot what will walk in.

Favorite part about this stand is it right on the border of our leased property and across the fence is a 4k acre part of the ranch that hasn't been truly hunted in 10 years. The actual woods across the fence are part of a 400 acre pasture that has never been hunted. You really never know what could wonder up.

Getting down to the nitty gritty now. I won't be back here until Thanksgiving and when I come back, I will probably be spending more time with my niece, daughter and sister in the stands than bow hunting, so I would really like to go ahead and kill a big one grin

Not that I have heard tonight. Seems slow with the few that have texted. Really hope pops connected and my BIL has a good chance where he is. Hadn't hunted up here this year and camera has been showing activity. I know there has been morning activity because dad drove by it about 9:00 this morning and there were 5 bucks still here.

Guess that is why they call it hunting grin

Nope. Had a small 8 in very early. He ate a few bites, wondered over and rubbed a tree and then walked off. Pretty slow morning

I have seen very few late at this place for some reason. I have had a few on camera and when I rifle hunt the open country, I see some mid day movement, but for the most part, it is over by 9:30 or so
