3 came in 2 left ..not big but fresh venison...

What a way to break a lousy season ,caught this guy with 3 doe at 8:30 . Broke the cherry on my Henry 30 30 ,70 yards,both lungs and top of heart.

I'd just gotten comfy in a stand I had not sit yet this year. Button...then young doe... then her 8 point date shows up from the opposite direction. All behind me. Tons of brush. Few openings. Split second green light for a quartering away shot. Nailed it. This one is for a friends freezer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This guy tried sneaking through a thicket full of prickers and rose bush. He didn't make it!

After a short stay in the hospital, to have a tumor in my bladder removed. Been following the forum a little here and there, while coming out of the fog of surgery and meds. But I'm back, and doing much better today!! Want to thank those that sent well wishes and prayers, as no doubt they all helped. I ask that the good thoughts and prayers continue, not for myself, but for a couple of others from this forum, who are fighting a much bigger battle than I. Not sure if I'll be able to get back out to hunt this year, but I'd like to, if at all possible. I have a couple spots on our property, that I can almost drive to with my truck or wheeler, for a short sit. Hopefully my grandson will come with me and we start to make memories with the Sako! Take care all. Hold your loved ones a little closer today.

I killed a good doe this morning. 115lb dressed. Try and keep this quiet but I did use a .243 and Barnes 80gr TTSX, it worked out well as it was only about 100 yards......

Well, I've got meat for the freezer. First two deer that I've seen since bow season. Nothing big but really tasty!

Well its been a long 5 years and alot of hope and prayers but i will be taking my dad out sunday only for a couple hours do to his health. He doesnt have much energy but cant wait to just sit out there with him. Hoping a decent body size anything comes through hes got tags for both. Man has taught me alot hes only killed 2 deer his entire life(18years apart) and i was there for his last buck 10years ago. Hoping to be there for a couple more.

My hunting partner just pulled some cam cards and he's making it hard for me to keep sitting in this darn easy chair! This is a blind we set up for early bow. Saw this buck a couple of times and passed on him once, as we have bigger on the property. But he is using this run daily, during daylight, and I can drive my truck to within 100 yards of this spot. He sure would make me feel better if I or my grandson could lay our hands on him! Gonna be a tough sell to the Mrs. though! Already told her, whats the difference if I sit in the chair here, or there? My buddy said just put him on the ground, and he will do the rest. Oh boy, here we go........

Got my second mature doe this morning at 8 a.m. had two young ones following her got my first 1 last Sunday at 11:30 now I have meat in the freezer for myself and my brother who has a bad back this season and not hunting for the first time in 60 years Sent from my SM-J320V using Tapatalk

Seen nothing this am while hunting,however ran into neighbor who owns land I was on. 87 year old man hunting alone and he gave me permission to hunt his 300t acres. As far as I know he is the only one who hunts. That was awesome.

What's a deer look like???? So I know if I ever see one!

Thanks again everyone! Got a buck making daily walks by a blind that we put in for early bow. I passed on him early in bow season. But he would really make my season now! Just a short walk from my truck to this blind. Oh boy, what to do?

Congratulations to those that harvested deer so far today! Looks like it was a good morning to be out. I myself bagged our usual large Christmas tree. Now I have lots of work to do to get her cut up and processed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Pumpkin bread French toast and little smokies. Good in between hunts meal!

Awesome Jeremy ! Made. ME happy too!

Last week this newbie neighbor kid comes in and sits by the creek. Shoots a small doe. Good for him. I see nothing all morning. This morning neighbors north of me come in after 7 in their orange jump suits. I watch them from a distance and hope they’ll bump something my way. I’m in well before sunrise and in a great stand in some thick stuff with good active runs. 2 separate shots not 20 min later. This sport can be frustrating. Who wants to join my pity party?

You guys are killing me. This is the most indecisive I’ve been all season since oct 1... I guess I’m getting up at 4:30...laid down at 9:30 now I can’t sleep. When I see NO deer tomorrow my next hunt will be for TF and the Renegade!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I wouldn't count on it..... I have hunted every single day since the 20th in three different regions 1 to 2 sets a day plus covered a few miles and have yet to see a deer. A total of 39 hrs. I did see two sneak out of the woods tonight as I was headed out after dark(5:00 pm) but have seen no sign or movement in places where they normally travel. This is the longest I have ever gone without at least seeing one. I am taking a couple of days off for a attitude adjustment, and honey do list. I hope that when I get back out things have changed. If I sit out there long enough maybe one will walk by. Good Luck.

I forgot To take a pic, but tonight it was tater tots covered with cheddar cheese, pulled bbq venison, bacon, sour cream and chives.

Nice buck Grampy. Go get him!

Ok,i should put my early success in perspective. At least i have something in the freezer. Wishing you empty handed folks best of luck!!!

Stay short all those hunters will push the deer to the roads .circle back around them, sneaky deer. I've taken a couple bucks like that on state land Sent from my XT1028 using Tapatalk

Never trust a free fart, you will pay in the end! BTW, where do you aim on a woodpecker, behind the wing or through it? If this one above me drops another piece of bark on me, my rifle is going to bark. Sent from my XT1635-01 using Tapatalk

That guy would be on my wall and I wouldn't care what he scored! Holy deer!

It's not a stock, it's actually a new SCR lower made by a company called Ares. It's compatible with pretty much all AR uppers and designed to comply with laws in restrictive states like NY. I like it a lot, especially since it lets me change calibers/uppers at will, but I wish it was priced a little more reasonably. My lower ran just north of $600.

My best to date. Taken in the pouring rain on the second day of the 2011 gun season. He was trailing four doe, one of ran straight to me after I dropped the buck at 75 yards. Dropped the doe right at the base of my stand. Definitely a memorable day.

All the above replies...are correct.... EVERYBODY GETS A TROPHY

middleguy 10 point 18" spread last day of season 2015 Dellaware County by Green County. Total fluke just walking through the open woods at 10:00. Circled around him and he walked right up to me. The locals say he's the biggest one in 20 years in my area. Not bad for a cityit. Moral of the story late season bucks do happen and don't give up until the end. I have a 9 in my area but I am taking off this weekend to let the woods cool down and next week taking off Thursday and Friday off. If it's meant to be it will be.

+1 on what TCIII said. The private land I hunt used to be about 45minutes to an hour, depending on which place I stopped at to get mt drive up coffee. Even after only hunting until noon or a bit later, it was rough driving home. Now, that land is close to an hour and a half drive, and the only two times we got up there last season the fiancée only made it a few hours in the cold. So even heading home around 10:00AM both of us had a hard time staying awake. I would hunt the closer area, pressure should be letting of a bit now in most areas.

On this site I guess it's called 'deer' pressure

In my 3S spot, for over a month now I got 4-5 different bucks hitting a scrape per week that I keep pissing in. hopefully tomorrow morning 1 shows up after sunrise and I fire an arrow through it.
