Yep, when you only own an 80, you’re very dependent on the neighbors, and we have some good ones fortunately. As disappointed as I was to not see that buck make it another year, it’s so much better than having neighbors who shoot anything with horns on its head.

Neighbor leaser shot the only buck I was really hoping would make it one more year. He was 4 according to our pics and took a HUGE jump this past year. Oh well, we can’t tie em to trees or put them in a pen, as much as I’d like to at times. The neighbor to the SE passed him twice and we agreed...

The Good Lord willing, I’m looking forward to the day this is the view off the back patio. It’s more than just the big deer that makes me so very glad to live in “flyover country”!

Well done, congrats!

Dawna got close again to a buck she's dubbed "Temptation" or something like that.:) I'm hoping she shoots a different buck, if she gets one on this property -- he's a slammer; and I think this fella could use one more year. He put on a BIG jump this year. I'm not going to tell her not to shoot...

Dawna got close last night, came to full draw twice on a big nine. She had to let down though both times. It was still legal light, but heavy clouds made it dark early. She couldn’t see clearly enough through her peep to feel good about the shot.

Had a very memorable hunt with our oldest yesterday evening at my folks. This old woodlot behind their house is where I cut my teeth bowhunting 35 years ago. She wasn’t able to get a shot at the second buck, the one we were chasing. Perhaps after a few more years of bowhunting, she will be able...

Tomorrow morning is looking really good

I have in the past, but didn’t have any to use yesterday. Just sprayed it down with scent killer.

Dawna and I sat in the lower barn plot blind tonight. She didn’t feel like sitting in the drizzle. We set out bullwinkle jr and did some rattling. It was a really slow afternoon/evening; I guess the deer didn’t want to be out in the drizzle either. We did get one young buck to come in before...

Awesome!

Dawna is hunting a stand this morning I have been very excited about since I hung it in August. It is a high risk/high reward spot. It will likely be good for 1 or 2 hunts at the most. She rattled in a 2 year old a while ago and he put on a pretty good show at the scrape tree.

The sawtoothes on our place haven’t had the best of luck. I might have to cage and screen a couple just to get them going.

My pack ALWAYS has an apple or two in it when I head to the woods.

Just ordered these 3 from David at Century. I also ordered 10 rootstocks.
