Cameras have gone silent except for a few small bucks. I have 4 hunters coming in for 5 days. Cold front should help!2 points

High expectations for that first buck but have to give him Kudos for wanting one of the best. Not a better feeling when you harvest a deer alone, add in a top of the class animal and it doubles…Take a mature target buck one on one and it’s out of this world. The best thing is that he has plenty of time to make any choice he decides but that first one will be special regardless what he drops the hammer on.2 points

I have had this happen a few times over the years. This buck is leaving a sanctuary bedding area and crossing a field and road to go up a big hill to get to a wood lot of acorns and a small corn and alfalfa field. He does all this and still gets back to his bed well before daylight. Pretty sure this is the same buck but hard to be 100% on it. Pretty cool animals.1 point

Nephew shot a nice 10 pt late morning opening day. This was after we gutted two other nice bucks and a Doe in the same area. Here they come chasing a Doe. Small buck then the 10 pt he shoots it dead waits a minute and out comes a giant and stands over the dead buck. He just watched for a minute and then it took off in the direction of the Doe. All it takes is one hot Doe to get them to lose their minds....lol1 point

The only 2 things that breaks the routine of smart never seen big bucks is the rut and the first few days of rifle season. For me it has always been the last week of southern zone bow season when the rut really peaks and then opening day rifle when the orange army takes to the woods stirring up big bucks and making them move.1 point

Two years ago like clockwork right before shooting light I watched a big buck make his way back to his anti hunter sanctuary across the road before dark with my thermal spotter. You could tell by his movements he was a mature buck on a mission. We set up a camera and got a couple of pics of the bruiser, but no one harvested him and he dropped off the radar after a week. I named him the vampire buck. SJC1 point

When the magnolia flowers fall in May it’s like crack for the deer, their under it during the day vacuuming them up. I have to mow the lawn around them, they won’t move.1 point
