LIVE from the woods 2016 Edition! - 7th Year, lets make this happen...
Fletch replied to burmjohn's topic in Deer Hunting
Back at it. Wish we had been here last evening instead of other commitments! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
I get excited still on every deer. I hope I never lose that. I am not one for hooting and hollering and some of those dudes on TV make me ill. Don't get me wrong I am proud and have a sense of accomplishment for sure. I will kneel or sit next to the deer and admire it. I give my thanks to the deer and there is a bit of sadness as well. I guess just a moment of respect for the animal that will feed my family. Then it's to work tagging, gutting and dragging. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I hear crash smash out to my right and get excited thinking running deer. Nope some big ass bird was trying to get a squirrel. Branches breaking and falling to ground, squirrel just going off and the bird chugging through the trees. I could not get a good look but man it had real white tail feathers. 10:30 I think I'm tapping out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

I'm thinking bacon and eggs at the house beats this barren watch this morning! Not even a squirrel. Days like this threaten the existence of the next young buck that goes by me!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

43 and and off and on breeze. Brought in a hot licking branch and a ziplock of hot scrape dirt to spice up my mock. It was already freshened up. It's just me this morning the youngster wanted some sleep. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

11/5 am 44 Out in the tower with my son who was using the crossbow. We had one out in front of us just a bit before 8am. He was up the hill and he busted us moving. We were switching seats to get my son into position and I did not think he could see us. I was not correct on that. Did check the new cam and a nice buck went by at 3am also a couple more yotes.

11/4 am 42 Out back in the far stand for 3.5 hours. Pretty slow. At 9am I did have a 1.5 yo 4 pointer come right in to me. He peed in scrape but really did not work it. He was just cruising alond browsing and with the wind at his back.

Set up with my son at the tower with the crossbow. 7:45 I see one 80 yds out up ridge. I rookied it. We needed to switch seats in the blind and he busted us. He was in the thick stuff so I wanted to swap before he got closer. I figured he couldn't see us. I shoulda glassed first cause he was looking. Bounded back the way he came. Think is was a small buck. Dang this is a learning curve hunting with two! Send in another deer we need more practice lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Me thinks you hunt quite a ways from where I am. When I start seeing roadkill stack up I know it's on. My wife drives 50 miles a day to work and when they start rutting she starts seeing 1-2 dead a day. She has not seen one yet. Just got done double checking the crossbow for my son in the am. I am so hoping he gets a crack this weekend! My current watch! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

One I made. He pizzed in it and sniffed up and down but did not really get into it. He was just slowly browsing along wind to his rear. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Sitting here collecting info and no one is seeing any roadkill, the big buck my friend shot 5 days ago was not in rut at all and just woods observations says things aren't clicking here yet. Bit behind normal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

I'm off today so sticking it out for a while. I have funeral and services this afternoon and tomorrow afternoon so two sits lost. The silly part is it's my wife's uncle who was a die hard hunter and woulda smacked his daughters for not arranging this around prime sits! Lol Oh well. We are spreading his ashes by his favorite deer stand. I may have to bring the bow!! They borrowed 14 sets of antlers from me to make centerpieces at the reception. We also made a large venison stew as requested. Had some good times hunting together he was a super guy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Finally saw something. 9am a little 4 point skip came on by at 10 yards. Now just need to see one I want to shoot. Another week though and as hungry as I am one of these 1.5s is going down lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
