[IndianaBowman]

You're right Mikey! That squirrel was a tough drag.  

[ishiwannabe]

Nice! A double. Hope the squirrel was running at least....you know, to make it a challenge for ya.   :D

I have to share this.

I went on my patrol at work. I typically see about 30-40 deer each time, mostly does. I saw that many does today as well. BUT every group of does was being harassed by a buck. Spikes and everything else imagined. The biggest was about 130" 8pt with a broken brow tine. I saw a total of 53 deer, including eleven bucks.

Then I got back to my post. As I was unlocking, I thought I heard a grunt. So I mouth grunted. BAM. Three different grunts from the suurounding woods. I tried my hand(mouth) at a snort wheeze. Got a response! First time I have ever heard one!

I played with what turned out to be three bucks for about ten minutes. Two (a six and a respectable 8) came out. Thought about scrapping but the six backed off. I heard them grunt. Saw them lip curl. Watched the 8 rub his tarsal glands together and urinate over them. The other one never showed himself, but kept grunting.

I know I wasn't hunting, but my heart rate was elevated! That was cool! Too bad I can't hunt here....some serious deer running around here....testimony that the three point rule does produce decent bucks in a few short years IMO.

I can't wait to get in my stand tomorrow!?

[Sean B]

Thats pretty cool!!...dumb question...how do you post a picture?

[IndianaBowman]

Sean you can send it to me and I'll post it for you or you have to use PhotoBucket or some other image hosting site.

Jamie, that sounds like a ton of fun.

[IndianaBowman]

Izzy, I'll take lucky over good any day.

[Tdog]

Izzy we don't mean for it to happen but it does. Takes a little soul searching to get through it. Just mean your human. Good hunting Monday.
