    Got home early today and hung out around the house. Talked to mama and she gave me the green light to hunt tomorrow morning since we cut or trip short. Not sure where I'll go but I'll be out somewhere. Very blessed to have the wife I have. She also told me to stop chasing horns and fill her freezer. Lol she has a point she tends to bring me back in and remind me why I hunt sometimes.

    Looking like our trip will be cut short do to weather. Calling for severe storms here all day tomorrow. So we picked up camp tonight just in case we need to get out of here in a hurry tomorrow. No deer were taken but plenty of laughs and lessons learned. We are planning on coming back down during their opening day of rifle and already talking about next year and what we can do different.

    Working on it. We have 2 guys in that bottom right now and I'm covering the area he came from just in case he came back.

    View of the night. Have q heavy rub line and scrape on the left side along the swamp a big CRP field that the buck came out of this morning. I'm in a red oak and I have apples all around. The grass has clover and 300 yards out in front is another swamp I'm keeping an eye to see if anything comes out. I had a fawn come in while I was setting up and bust me but just bounded across the road which is 50yarde away.

    Scouted some more this morning and saw a nice 8 go across the road and into a river bottom that's only 15-20 acres in size with fields on both sides. So 2 of the guys are going to sneak in there to cover it and hope to catch him coming out of his bed. We also jumped 3 does scouting.

    Normally stuff like that wouldn't be it was a little over the top and to close for comfort. Could here people almost at the point of having a fist fight. We may try again later in the week but for now we have other pieces to check out.

    Thank you. No luck on my birthday hunt but still a great day in the woods with good friends and my wife's homemade chili when we got back

    Nothing tonight. Come to find out there's a gun range close by and they were shooting all day. Plus it had a bunch of traffic. So we are going to ditch that piece and focus the rest of the trip on the other.

    View for tonight in pa. 2 scraped 20yards to my left rubs in all directions. Little bench that goes straight uphill and then straight down hill. Wind was perfect came in from below the ridge and came right to my tree and up 16ft. I have a friend above me 100 yards covering the next bench. Point of the ridge is less than 100yardd and its thick. That's where I am expecting the deer to be coming from.

    2nd spot yielded less sign however the biggest scrape we found was here along with a good rub. However as I found the scrape someone hiking walked right through it and onto the island I was planning on sitting tonight. So I will give a break tonight and check it tomorrow. Other picture is view from our camp

    Found what I wanted to see on first quick scout. Rubs leading up put of an apple orchard with rubs on each side of the trees and 2 rub lines met at 1 spot with the scrapes on a bench at the end of the ridge. It got thick about 100yards in front so we backed out. One will sit that bench and the other will swing around and sit the next bench up. Wind is supposed to be the same as this morning. Off to go check a swamp now.

    Truck and trailers are packed, food bought, truck gassed up. Waiting for the kids to get home from school then off to dance and dropping the youngest off to my wife then heading to PA for the week. My wife made a pot of chili for the trip so that will be tomorrow's dinner. I'll try to update everyday while I'm down there. Not picky it'll be first legal buck. 1.5 5 point or 4yr old 12pt doesn't matter to me just want that experience with my friends.

    Finishing packing for my PA trip. Leave tomorrow around 5pm to head to camp. One of my friends is going down at 3 to setup camp for us. Really excited about this trip

    Proud of my nephews ones been hunting 2 years the other 3. They've already both taken good turkeys and their first deer. Both deer taken in their first years of deer hunting. They are going to give us a run for our money the next couple years. They are like sponges tell them something and they just soak it all up and never have to remind them. The rest of the year is to try and get their 1st bow kills. Honestly wish I had their composure when I was that age. They keep there cool until the shots done.

    Nephews first deer. They don't want his face shown.
  20. Swamp_bucks
    And my group is on the board. Just got a text message my nephew just took his first deer yesterday a little spike.
  21. Swamp_bucks
    Next day I can hunt is tuesday morning before my PA trip so if the winds right I'll go back in
  22. Swamp_bucks
    Mainly I won't be here. Do you think he would be back quick since I didn't jump him from it? This hunting buck beds is still new to me. Take any info on it I can get

    Congrats to all the youth hunters

    Nothing again today but one of my target bucks is back. Reopened 10 big rubs found his tracks and his bed. His bed is 15yards off the road. So now I know he's back time to play the chess game. I opened up a scrape while I was there. I won't be back for another 2 weeks since I was so close to his bed. Needs some time to settle back down

    Nothing tonight the oaks I was at had 0 acorns on the ground and nothing in the trees. I think something was on the ridge above me where there are more oaks because the blue Jay's were going nuts all night.
