Had 2 doe come through and gave them a pass. Not 5 minutes later a shooter buck came through on the heels of a doe. I watched this charade for 15 minutes. They were just out of range of my crossbow the whole time.

I feel your pain! In the last 12 hunts, I've only seen 2 deer!! I see all the reports of bucks on the move and chasing, but can't help but wonder WTF is going on in my area!? I checked 2 cams near a stand that I haven't hunted recently, but only have pics of 3 deer passing by in the past 9 days!!! I'm off for the next 2 weeks, so hopefully something will flip the switch and get those bucks moving!!

Any action in 9A? I don't know where everybody hunts . . . .

So had to head out at 10 am nature's  call dog had to go to .  Picked up a trail cam , extra hunting knife , binoculars,  all left on my bench this morning. I'm back in as of 12. Planning on sitting until dark. Finally some piece and quietblooks like squirrels  are midday napping. 

All the scrapes that were covered yesterday are back open . I sprayed a squirt of doe e in each one .

Unfortunately for me I have to go clean up some down trees on my place this afternoon. I'd rather go out hunting and not be running chainsaw all over the place but it needs to be done to have the right access trails opened up for getting to stands.

[Arcade Hunter]

I'm sick af and had to leave .  Congratulations to all that got one... Moog and Grampy... Nice job!  I'll take a day off during the week to catch up.  Gonna rest up

[biggamefish]

Turkeys are nuts this afternoon. Calling and gobbling.  Crazy had them at 10 yards.  

 

[Team Hoyt]

Back out til dark 

[WNYBuckHunter]

I’m back in the woods for the evening. 

[BigVal]

I'm headed out shortly. Geese just landed in the field I hunted at 1pm. They like to keep me guessing 

[BowmanMike]

Gotta ask. These new bow hunters practice much?   And shoot a doe and then shoot the trailing buck a little irresponsible IMO    2 blood trails intertwining only says bad things.

My first archery doe was this year. . 2 more were perfect for me to zip another hour later. I know I heard the first crash but no way I was going to shoot another without knowing100 %   Shooting 2 first archery deer in same day would have been epic and broke this forum but NOT even a thought

Was doe being tailed by buck recovered?

Yep. I’ve seen both shoot and they are pretty good. As for shooting a doe and then a buck, I imagine any young hunter would take a shot at a buck, doe down or not. Both hunters are new to archery but not hunting deer. I’m ok with the decision. The buck was not recovered. I’m thinking it was not a good hit.

I'd be happy to be a mentor to these new hunters.

Hunting back yard with my son tonight. He told me all about the huge buck he saw this am. Much bigger than any of my 4 mounts he said. Also said he was rubbing a pine tree, hopefully I get a look at em!!

[Moho81]

Another skunk of a morning. Went in to warm up grab lunch and stack some fire wood. Back out now over looking a field. I hope to see one even if it is 500 yards away.
