Sounds like a great plan. Hope the deer cooperate . Keep the wind in your face or a crosswind, watch any saddles hard and use ridges to hide your outline as best you can. Hope you drop one

Welcome in.

How bout a slow still hunt. Just glass and work it slow. Ground should be quiet with all the rain.

Happy Birthday ! hope its a great day ! @airedale

Happy Birthday!

big 9 was around on the night before opener. And the doe I passed on the day after opener

Welcome in

I don't think it works that way. I could be wrong. Deer have a fairly small home range they are either there or they are not. Having one or more large bucks in the area I would think would only be based on deer density for the area. Usually bucks will run in bachelor groups in the summer and then tend to be more loners in deer season but don't really change their home range much. They might wander out of it looking for does but wouldn't think having a bigger buck gone will change much.

Agree 1000%. On our spot in 7F there is no food after leaf dyeout. And actoss one Rd a closed golf course and open fields around all the rest of area. They eat at night and bed next to those during the day to recoup. We have nothing to pull them in. Once muzzle starts you can barely find a track here in a week's time. Ghost town. Rut is over so nothing really wandering too far from food. Can't put in food plots cause its a wetlands area. And have heard maybe 3 shots all season that might be on neighboring properties. Once muzzle opens I will have access again to AG fields where I bow hunt. I don't gun hunt there the owner does and I stay out of the way then. And late muzzle I will sit over these AG fields every afternoon I can. After opening weekend not much chance for any action.

It is an obvious sign of communism. Close second to putting ketchup on a hotdog.

Hunt #35 11/29. Light -11:00. 7F . Brought a foldout chair and sat near Littlefield where I was last night just off the edge of the trail. Had a huge fisher run across trail at 30 yards and heard one snap of a branch about 10:15. No deer seen. I have w-sun off next week and will do some hunting but sure haven't seen much of anything in gun. After that will prob be done til muzzleloader. Next weekend Corey and I might do a couple of pushes and see if we can get some action.

Get well guys. Sodfather hope your on the right end of mending up soon.

That sure sucks. See any bullet holes ? If close to road maybe it was hit and someone just cut the horns off. Would think most , not all, but most would take the meat. Either way that sucks

From the ground this morn. Good luck folks.

Add in @Bowshotmuzzleloader Congrats! Epic day

Nice. Must be he didn't put in live thread til next day or just the harvest thread. What a day it was. I remember treeguy got a buck on his birthday the day before too. Crazy. And a lot of nice bucks.

I'd say Wintergreen

Both amazing days but thinking 11/2/19 lives in infamy. Almost all of these were bucks but one I think and it was bow season. Both were awesome days for a lot of people. 11/2/19 Biz, bigpaul,Nomad,Green Drake, Steuben Jerry, Wolc, ChrisW, FLXmatt, sodfather,Al Bundy, turkeyfeathers,

Wow what a day. Ok deep breath and congrats to ..... @50calpeephole @UpStateRedNeck @SpacemanSpiff @Bolt action @Lomax @ATbuckhunter @The_Real_TCIII @MPHunter @BigVal And to @Just Lucky when he finds his buck in the morn! Hell of day and congrats on the bucks, does and yotes!

Hunt #34. 11/28. 1:45-dark. 7F Littlefield stand Haven't hunted here all season. But I've officially been in every stand now this year. Didn't hunt it cause of tagging an early doe then buck on Halloween. It's mostly for bow and xbow. Real tight spot, no shots over 35 yards. Great deer trail that crosses main trail and a huge scrape next to it 12 yards away. Didn't see anything but was thinking one was gonna be in view any minute.

If it happens here it will happen fast. No shot over 35 yards here. Haven't sat in this stand all season. Mostly a bow and crossbow spot. Huge scrape and beatdown deer trail to my left at 12 yards. Would love to join the buck parade today.

If the deer can make me out in orange in the stand then it's already too late for them with the gun. I always wear it in the stand. Plus IF anyone else happens to walk anywhere near they know a hunter is here and they shouldn't be out here.

Hunt #33 11/28. Light-10. 7F opener stand. Didn't see anything. Heard one grunt I am pretty sure in the thickness to my right but never heard anything else. Corey was in wayback and saw nothing.

Guys are downing them. Congrats folks. I'm out, don't have a lot of faith for much action here. I should join the duckers on neighbor property they were booming this morn.

You say you got scoped, but is the true story that you caught that trespasser with this nice buck and had to get handy and take the buck away from him? He got a lucky punch in before you suplexed him in the woods and took his deer.......
