Wish I was out there but my "buck" season is over...taking our 12 and 6 yr old grandsons squirrel hunting tomorrow and maybe take the 12 year old for a deer on Saturday evening if his folks have the room for the meat...we are completely out of freezer space and still have a big one at the processor so I may have to purchase another small freezer...what a problem eh 
Congrats to Mollyann and dad as well...she is a die hard deer hunter sticking it out all day but it was worth it! If I recall this was not her first all day sit?Arrived at the stand at 5:50am. Cold 28 degrees. We planned on an all day hunt and that was what it took for Mollyann to score. We both took a few naps while the other one watched. Buck came out at 5pm and she made the perfect shot.

I know there are a lot of Bowtech fans these days, but I've heard a lot of horror stories lately. Buddy went to draw on the biggest buck of his life a couple weeks ago, pin through the cam let go and everything came apart. Bloodied his lip and cut his nose, blacked his eye. Bowtech offered little support or relief. Maybe all archery companies are that way, I don't know, my Mathews haven't blown up in my face yet.

I've had ZERO issues with my Destroyer and I've used the snot out of it over the years. It still has it's original string on it. But unfortunately when they came out with that technology the longevity research just wasn't there with the carbon limbs. I'm a huge fan but having a friend who owns a bow shop has allowed me to shoot a bunch of bows over the years. I really like the fit and finish along with the 90% let off of the new PSE. Either way I'm lost without my bow and refuse to pick up a gun. But on the bright side my 8 year old shot his 7mm-08 for the first time today and he was excited. I'll be more than happy to put the bow down for the rest of my life to be able to take my kids hunting. This was his first shot at 50 yards. And for those who is wondering these are custom targets made by my son. Keeping it fun. Hoping to have a "Live From the Stand" post soon with my son at the helm.

Yes, last year she shot her buck late afternoon on an all day sit.
Dressed out at 125#. Weights are down. Very dry late spring and early summer put native browse to a minimum. Zero acorns this year and even persimmons are down a good 75%. I'm not in Ag land so everything is native browse and my 5 acres of plots.

Decided to sit on the ground this evening. Wind out of the south. Not good for my Stands. A little warm but I guess I'll see what happens.
I don't post much. But love learning from you guys!
Say a doe right at last light at about 200yds was hoping for a closer shot, but she never came any closer,

I’m overlooking a chufa plot that I overseeded with rye. Looking for does.

I took a small break from Saturday afternoon until this morning. I started to post my "live" hunt this morning, but the only live critters beside myself, were two squirrels, one cat, one fox. I guess the does are locked up or in hiding. The rut is about kaput around here. Gonna change locations tomorrow and hunt "out of town" until Saturday morning. We'll see if there are any bucks stirring in Trinity Co., Texas.

Welcome from another eastern SC hunter! Your property looks a lot like mine, managed pine plantation. Do you have any agriculture around you? And you're obviously not afraid of heights!! You must be 35 ft up in that stand.
