Buck Sign, Let's see them!
« on: October 24, 2010, 10:20:00 AM »
I had a close encounter yesterday with a 140" plus 10 pt. Had him at 10 yards side hill to side hill and shot just over his back. A really ticky shot as the distance can fool you.... and it did. Here is one of his rubs. Would have been my first traditional kill.

I watched three different bucks work this rub in two days. It's by far the biggest whitetail rub I have ever seen. Thats a full size day pack for reference.

 

It was In Indiana!

Adeeden,
Are you sure there aren't any elk in that part of the country?

Work day at our camp yesterday. After the work was completed I went to set up my game cam on a perennial scrape area. There were just too many to try and get them all (7 or so in a 30 yard circle.) I'll have pics when I go back to get them in three weeks.  

Nice sign, guys.

Today I decided to go to some public land that I havent been to for over a year.  

Saw more hunters than deer.  

But ran across this:

 

 

I think I might go back a couple more times before season ends!
