Hunt #5 on spot in 7J. Never got to hunt it last year as it was an active cow pasture. But have never sat here and not seen deer at least. Saw 3 doe all out of range, 2 turkeys and a beautiful gray fox. Always see deer here but most often out of range. Did tag a nice doe here on the very first time I hunted it in '17. But don't hunt here often as it the farthest drive for me and can only hunt it on an East wind and afternoon. -
Sounds like a humble and we'll grounded boy you've raised. He'll have better days to come but learned more today than if he got the deer.

Nice! Huge Cuda!

That sucks esp not knowing. I once hit a deer high. Looked for hours in the morning and found 6 spots of blood. After looking one last time saw a belly in a creek bed. I hit him real high and the arrow was still in him but I could see it when he took off. Maybe it was just a graze as the arrows are going so fast if they touch anything they make a noise. Tough one to figure

Changed mind and am in 7J spot. Got pretty warm and this spot is good for an east wind and can get in stand in 5 minutes. At least until your bow rope get tangled and you drop your binos..... Didn't get to hunt this last year cause it was a cow field during season. Season before in 17 was first time here and shot a nice doe first night. Usually see deer here but tough to get in range. I moved this stand 10 yards closer so hoping that helps a little. Good luck everyone and congrats to those that have dragged one today

Pm sit have decided to go to "big buck "stand in 6S. Was gonna save it for later in season and hunt a spot in 7J , but can't pass it up. 3 sits in it last year and 3 tags filled on an East wind. So gonna go for it early. Don't expect that streak this season but it's a good spot. My buddy Corey @FISHDO went last night and dropped his bow and broke his sight. So he's got a replacement and resighting back in. I keep telling him he is never gonna get approved if he keeps pulling these hijinks! I think he should get approved for the entertainment value alone. Lol

I tend to agree on that. He said he was gonna wait an hour. Was thinking that too to wait 10 hrs but then it's dark and would be overnight. But where I hunt the yotes would have it by then. So I would make at least a shot at it with 2 hrs of light left. Lots of bino work to see if I could spot it from distance. A gut shot deer left for 24 hours here is coyote feed as much as I agree on this with you.

Hunt #4 on 7F lease in Roadkill stand. Saw a fisher at 6 yards but not a single deer. -
Id give that deer a solid minimum 4-5 hours and look for it with 2- 3 hours of light left in day. Let it lay and expire and then look. If you push it too soon you will just jump it. It's prob laying down somewhere right now. Hope u walk out and find it but I would give it a good wait esp since it was an am shot and you have lots of light yet. Good luck
