Had a Blessed morning out, I let a spike buck walk today. I called him in with the can up to 5 yards, saw another deer not sure what it was and a nice doe and button buck.

Izzy- I can't picture you, Manny, and Ray all in the same place with Ray's trucker stories.
I still smile when I think of those stories all the way to S. Carolina and back.

Finally got out this afternoon for my first sit of the season. Red Squirrels and chipmunks were all I saw. Really nice just to get in the woods though.

Rainy today I hope I can get out tonight but I will definitely be out tomorrow.  Have some good trail cam pics of does moving so the boy might be following.

Saw 2 Tom Turkeys this morning. It was wet and noisy in the woods. I was watching the first at 40 yards an busted by the second that moved in from behind at 20.  Saw another fresh scrape on the way out.

I'll be out again in the morning.
Relax,

At about 10:15 I saw a big bodied deer cruising the neighbors woods at about 100 yards. Pretty windy but a nice morning none the less.

I went out this morning a few miles away until 10:30 but didn't see anything but squirrels. My wife stayed home and hunted behind the house and saw four does and one buck. The buck was chasing a doe around who acted like she wanted nothing to do with him yet.

We might see some early Young Buck/Chaseing activity going on soon!!!

My friend Dean, sent me a picture of a 4pt buck & a doe that he shot,late yesterday morning, on the Fishkill Cemetary property we hunt. He was going to take the doe & when he shot her, she dropped within feet of where she was standing. The young buck, wondering why she wasn't running anymore, kept sniffing and nudging her trying to get her to either get up & run... Or stand up & prepare to be mounted!!! LMAO

Never one to let an opportunity slip by..... He shot the buck too!!!!!

Tyler & I saw nothing but squirrels this morning..... But hey, That's Ok! I'm on vacation for the next 2 weeks!!!!!    :bigsmyl:

Sat for 3 hours this afternoon, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. Seven sits and have seen deer on only one. Discouraging to say the least.........

Saw a nice buck tonight he came by at about 20 yards but the shot angle was wrong, next chance I had he was about 25 yards. That is just outside my comfort range so i had to let him walk.

Never saw a deer in two mornings of hunting other than a buck crossing the road Saturday morning and another buck flat out crossing the road this morning. I think it going to get crazy real quick    :campfire:

Seems like every year... Contrary to popular belief, and wildlife bioligist's scientific calculations. The woods go wild in October!!!

The Does may not be ready... But, the Bucks know what's coming!!!!!  :bigsmyl:
