Been out a couple times this month. Have seen deer almost every time but still waiting on a buck to get into bow range. Not sure if I will get out again before season closes. Good luck to everybody...

Hang in there 213chrisp. I bow hunted for three years before I got one with a bow. Can be very tough at first with a steep learning curve, but it will get easier, especially once find find a few good...
edges can still be productive in the morning, especially if deer use the edge to travel back from food source to bedding. Also less chance of bumping deer if you set up on the edge... if there is a...
Congrats on the nice buck and doe blackbeard. I had been missing all of your updates while the site was down, so it is nice to have caught up on them and its nice to see you including your boys in...
I also have found that good scent control is key. For a lot of the stands I hunt, deer can be coming at me from multiple directions so it hard to play the wind to my advantage even if i try.
You are allowed to go into the woods whenever you want, just can't shoot a deer until 30 minutes before sunrise. You are right on track, generally a good idea to get to your spot 30 minutes to an...
Hey good luck with your first hunt, hope you have some action. It sounds like you have been doing your research which is great. If you are like me, you will also end up learning a lot from trial and...
Congrats Griz, that's an awesome buck
Congrats, great story and memories
I agree that the pressure from this weekend will educate more deer and possibly make buck hunting more difficult. Although, if you have the luxury of your own land or exclusive hunting privileges on...
Wow that is pretty sweet. Thanks for sharing!
Wow, that's a hek of deer. Rare combination of mass and time length...
Congrats on the nice buck!
I will be out in the morning. Evenings are usually better for me, but there is nothing like the excitement of watch the sun come up for the first legal minute of shooting light of the whole season.
What a buck! good luck hunting him. Never know what might send him your way during the daylight
I'm in this year
Congrats Allen and Big Holla. Awesome story and thanks for sharing.
Columbus is a decent city. Good restaurants, plenty to do, and crime is not too bad. Much less of the cramped urban feel compared to DC, and as has been said above, you can be out in good hunting...
I have never had a hunt under a couple hours, but this past year my brother did drop his first buck the first minute of legal shooting light on the first day of gun season. He never was one to let...
Welcome. I am sure you will like it here. I am definitely interested in hearing and seeing what the hunting is like in Ontario.
Thanks for posting. My favorite is the pic with the tree rats on the run!
haha got a good laugh out of that one.
Cool Pics Big Holla. I agree with Griz that those Brow Tines in Pic #2 are pretty sweet.
great story, thanks for sharing. I had heard one other story of a buck charging a guy and didn't really believe it but I guess it does happen....would shake me up for sure.
Thanks for the update mrbb. I enjoy reading about your hunts. Gives me a quick escape since I cant get out there nyself right now.
