MO Hunting Season Thread 2016

[goingoldskool]

I went out this morning....  loads of squirrels, no deer.  I brought in my cameras and have some pictures of deer....  they are there when I'm not.  simple as that!  Didn't make it out this evening.

Maybe Monday....

Good luck, Shoot straight and God Bless!
Merry Christmas!

Good Habitat equals MO bobcats.

That's a dandy, congrats!!!!

Merry Christmas to all my Missouri buddies!

I'm not throwing in the towel yet... hopefully next week I'll have a story to share.

Stay with em Brad, seems to be feast or famine for the most part here, might see 1 or a dozen.....

I have to get out tomorrow and check some cameras. Got a couple that I know batteries were getting low a month ago. I'm hoping to get a couple hunts in yet before season ends. My shoulder has been feeling quite a bit better last couple days.
I've been seeing a few in field right before dark this week.

Well, I went for a walk yesterday on public ground to do some scouting/still hunting.  I ended up seeing my first ever wild hog.  I jumped up what appeared to be a big boar from about 10 feet away in a honeysuckle patch.  And later on I ran into a group of 6 or 7 hogs.  They were around 35 yards or so.  Several of them were good sized hogs.  I sure hope the MDC knocks these things back, but I don't see it happening.

Jake I think they are hard to get rid of. Birth rate is tremendous.

I sat a beautiful morning stand today and saw 2 squirrels!

Moved aways off tonite in more of an observation stand, always a chance of a stray one tho.....

[JakeD]

I'm ready for Saturday to get here.  I have a 3 day weekend coming up and will be hunting hard to get another deer.  Time is running out!

Well the squeak just worked on my pointer.

[kennym]

I' goin on the ground tonite, are deer scared of small sasquatchs?      

Got my ghillie out and a decent place to try it again.....   :cool:

[kennym]

Well well , back in a bit........ .

Nice work Kenny! I went out for a bit this morning but had no luck. It started raining and I've been a little sick, so I came back to the house.

[kennym]

I've been lucky in more than one way, Jake. Bro has a head cold that won't go away. So far I haven't gotten it!

[JakeD]

I usually don't get sick, I think I got this from my wife. I'm gonna try to get out tomorrow if I feel better. If not, at least I feel better than your doe!

[SlowBowinMO]

Wow Kenny, you are a bow and arrow hit man this year!

[dnovo]

Kenny
Nice doe. Congrats again. You're my hero this year. Thanks for taking us along on your hunts this year. I finally shot my bow again Friday night. Didn't hunt the whole month of December. Between my shoulder and the holidays no chance to get out but I'm planning on a couple more hunts before season ends. Saw 6 does this morning crossing through my front yard.

[kennym]

Thanks guys!

Dan, I hope you can get out there! I love late season.

This morning, a dog followed me and barked for a half hour of buck time just out of sight.

The does smelled me when they showed up. (funky wind)

The coyotes saw me from 5 yards out of my preferred range. They are sharp now!!

All in all, a great morning!! LOL  (seriously)
