A great morning for deer in Michigan
« on: October 29, 2010, 08:48:00 PM »


This morning is the first morning if a few where the winds were not gusting to 50 or 60 mph and so I went out and sat where I missed a nice 8 I called in the other day. I can called this guy in and shot him at about 10 yds from a tree. There were several does and smaller bucks all around as well all morning. About 30 min after I watched him go down, I heard rattling and called in a bigger one to 35ish yds and no shot. In Michigan our season starts mid September now and goes through to Jan 1. This is a killer year so far because all the crops are down. I usually only see one or two bucks like this a season, but they seem to be out and are callable for sure right now. 1/2 mile drag to calm me down!! LOL Good morning! This guy had a hole in his abdomen from fighting, at first it looked like an arrow hole. Also, check out the ear. Either a shotgun slug went through or he is a little roughneck.

God bless you man!!!

The winds you spoke of took off half of my shingles, so until my house is weather proof, no hunting for me.

I`m gonna print a picture of your buck, and put it next to my back door so I will work fast!

Sincere congrats!!!  Beautiful Michigan buck and a beauty of a Michigan bow!!!

Many happy returns!  :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:  

(not two, but THREE thumbs up)
