This morning I'm in one of my favorite stands up in medina county this stand has not been hunted yet this year but if its anything like last year ill see deer! Did not scout at all here bc of the woods being smaller and we kinda alway just sit in the stands and let them tell us where the deer are at. My buddy is sitting about 200 yards away from me in a 20 foot ladder Stand and I'm in a 25 foot hang on. I'm on a creek bed where it runs into a bigger creek and acorns falling everywhere I did take a doe out of this stand last year and seen one of the biggest bucks I have ever seen in this stand its 650 in the am stay tuned ill let u no how the morning goes today is October 10th and just as I was abou to submit this I have deer in front of me to dark to see tho ill update later

was sitting this evening at one of my buddys stand and boy was it windy 25 mph gusts of winds it got chilly bc of the wind i sat it out and even tho the wind was so strong i had it in my favor. around 6 the wind died down but i still wasent sure we were going to see much around 705 i seen 6 does working my way and they came straight in hunder me but ofcourse by time they got into range legal shooting light had expired so i had to sit there for another 45 min while the deer were eating on the corn and eating the crush beats we had just put out today seen a few snaps of the trail cam as well. prolly be back at it in the morning we will see tho im exahusted after a long day of hunting hoping the wind stays down

Hunted tonight over a corn field that had not been cut yet 25 yards 3 does and I managed to hit one of the only stray corn stalks on the edge of the field between the doe and the other corn missed her clean glad I missed her clean but pissed off that it happends starting to have a little but of a rough year. Seeing a lot of deer just not getting the shots I want at all

Last night my clean miss didn't spook the deer at all so we will see what happends this Mornin

I don't know much about deer hunting with a bow. The state that I live in used to require a minimum of 40 lb of pull for deer hunting. They have dropped that requirement.

BowGuy2
10-15-2012, 07:33 AM
What's does that have anything to do with? Anyways well got into the stand this morning about 10 min after being here I notice I have 3 deer feeding on the corn 20 yards away its not bring enough to shoot yet 10 min go by legal shooting light is good and I can see my 20 yard pin I stand up without a problem the deer don't see me anyhow. I go to draw back and turns out there is a deer behind me that didn't like the idea of me drawing back at one of her friends so she decided to blow for about 10 min and completely destroyed my chance at getting a shot at them deer they ran off of course. Now here is my question if u guys happen to get blown at by a deer do u guys back out of the stand and maybe head to a new stand location or do u sit tight and just hunt it anyways?

Just passed on a small basket rack 8 pointer I played with him a little but I hit the grunt tube and he came on a string from about 80 yards stopped at 40 then I hit the grunt tube again and he came directly under my stand and looked around for about 5 min stomping every once in a while

If I get busted in the stand I still stay in the same stand. I have shot several deer after being busted. I haven't had any sightings as of yet. I'm getting don a little early because I forgot my stinking release. Probably around 9:30.

BowGuy2

Now here is my question if u guys happen to get blown at by a deer do u guys back out of the stand and maybe head to a new stand location or do u sit tight and just hunt it anyways?

This is a little late but I stay and hunt, I missed a doe last friday at 32 yds, thought she was at 25, and I was pissed cuz I can make that a 30 yd shot in my sleep and as they ran away I could here them blowing the whole way out the ridge haha I thought my hunt would be ruined. However I stuck it in and got some cool footage of a button buck right under my stand and a spike sneaking by at 15 yds.


Keep up the updates, I enjoy reading em.

Good luck on that big boy. I shot a yote one time out of my stand. It was awesome. I hit him broadside at about 5 yards and he must have jumped sideways about 6 feet through the air. I wished I had that on video.

BowGuy2
10-23-2012, 04:31 PM

BowGuy2

BowGuy2
10-27-2012, 05:45 PM

MandRroofing
10-27-2012, 08:39 PM

BowGuy2
10-28-2012, 05:55 AM
Yah sucks big time! I never got to full draw but he was on a rope straight to my stand.. Sucks stupid wind even tho it doesn't matter b I always spray down and never even let my hunting close inthe truck I came home and washed all of my clothes back at it this am

BowGuy2
10-30-2012, 11:38 AM
Thanks dude. I would be putting a lot more time in the woods but this stupid hurricane has me depressed I have used this time to hang stands and put out corn and I'm ready to be back in the woods as soon as this weather breaks

10-30-2012, 08:43 PM

BowGuy2
11-01-2012, 07:40 AM
In the stand this morning and I didn't jump any deer off of my corn pile! Lets see what this morning brings! This site has been dead the last week with the weather the way it is hopefully this weekend this site and the rutting activity heats up good luck to all and be safe!

Bowguy2 out!!!!

BowGuy2
11-01-2012, 08:50 AM
I have seen 2 smaller bucks both noses to the ground feeding and deff sniffing it out. And oh ya i have seen a few pope and young squirrels as well haha

BowGuy2
11-01-2012, 09:33 PM
Busted a doe tonight at 52 yards ran 15 yards and dropped over complete pass thru

ghunter
11-01-2012, 09:50 PM
Congrats. But as previously stated by other members on here 50 yards is impossible. ;)

BowGuy2
11-01-2012, 11:01 PM
Haha yah I have had more that one argument on here about that. If u practice and feel comfy shooting at that distance I don't see a problem in it at all. I don't understand how one can criticize someone just bc one person can do it and another can't and they are the same people at are throwing lead at deer while the deer are running I agree a lot can go wrong at 50 yards with bow hunting but a lot can go wrong at 20 yards and I put in my time shooting my bow at that range all the time and can hit a pie plate up to 60 yards everytime pretty much I have a top of the line bow that shoots over 330 fps so it's not like I'm shooting a rainbow at 52 yards I have a Hoyt carbon matrix and this is 2 years in a row that I killed a deer at 50+ yards and thanks man I aprrciate it! Good luck to ya

BowGuy2
11-03-2012, 08:44 AM
