I have been seeing deer regularly over the last couple days.  Had this guy give a nice close shot yesterday morning.
 
That's the first deer with my new Robertson.  I think I kind of like it.

Hey Bona

I was in a treestand on the edge between an open hardwood and a 6 or 7 acre thicket.  There are two drainages that begin along the same edge.  Usually several scrapes and rubs along the edge.  The other 3 sides of the thicket have about 20 acres of native grass planted around it.  The deer came up through the open hardwood worked a scrape then walked by me and gave a 13-14 yard quartering away walking shot.  It was a fine morning.

Nobody has any updates?  Somebody has got to be in some deer somewhere.  I am still seeing quite a few up and running.  Made some more meat on Thursday evening.

I am seeing deer, but I have not been able to be in the right spot!  Mainly seeing does and small bucks.  Still not seeing any serious chasing.  I did see a small 4 point about 20 minutes behind a couple of does this morning.  Putting in a lot of hours, but no meat yet.  Good luck every one!

I saw two 4 pointers this evening. I had a ten yard broadside shot at one but as I lifted my bow another hunter walking up the trail about 100 yards away spooked it and it ran. I thought I had some meat for the freezer. Oh well I'll be out tomorrow morning.

Shot a nice doe last Sunday. Watched her go 40 yards and then down. Helped my buddy with a deer he had shot earlier...Came back for mine and found four wheeler tracks and no doe! I was less than amused. It would've been my first deer with a wood arrow....

I've got all this coming week off headed into the Indiana firearms season, so we'll see what happens. Nice deer being killed in Indiana so far, congrats to those of you who have been successful thus far, and good luck to all who haven't yet.

Been seeing several deer, a few nice bucks. I think the rut is finally starting to heat up I my area. I haven't been the right place at the right time yet, but I hope to get it done before the guns start blazing.

Saw a beautiful 10 pointer this morning around 8:00 or 8:30 am, nice thick white rack. But it smelled me right away. No more chili during deer season.  :)

This morning was quiet until about 11am.  I saw 7 does and 5 bucks before 2pm.  Small buck pushing and grunting at a very small doe. Ir was a nice morning to hunt.

Had two bucks fighting down the hill below me at first light this morning.  They finally made their way by me about 10 minutes later.  They weren't the big guys but they did not like each other.  Thought it might be an interesting day the way it started but that was as exciting as it got.

Slept in this morning but made it out this afternoon.  Saw 10 does.  Made a 20 yard quartering away shot on this doe from the ground.  She made it about 80 yards.

My nephew works for the highway dept. and he told me he helped pick up a doe and a nice buck on the side of the highway across from the property I hunt. The buck had his antlers cut off already. He saw deer in the field too.

So I went out Monday with high hopes. I sat from 2 til dark and saw nothing.
