From the stand
osage outlaw:
Great job Scott! Those stone points are definitely lethal.
osage outlaw:
My wife sent me these pictures she took out the back door yesterday.
And today I'm at work and my son sends me these pictures of a buck crossing the road onto our property. Plus my Dad was texting me updates from the stand all day. The bucks are running wild right now.
BowEd:
Congratulations Scott.Great story and an exciting hunt.A miss and a hit....You lucky dog!!!!Way to stick it out.Those close ones' are just too easy for ya.....lol.Primitive all the way!!!!
Nice pics OO.That's about the size I was looking at yesterday here with this story.
The bucks are finally going nuts here too like OO says.Chasing and grunting all over.A blast to watch!!!Got at least two big bodied 3 year old 8 points getting close to the danger zones with me here.Passed on a doe and her yearlings under my stand for an hour or so yesterday.
No pics but I'll try to describe what went on here now.I got into the stand with 2 yearlings looking at me 40 yards away.I was'nt moving to another stand so I climbed up.They eventually both just went and layed down right where they got up from.They really have no reason to be afraid of man yet.I figured their mom set them there to wait for her.An 8 point comes by to check them out and leaves.Does'nt offer me a shot.A different 8 point chases an old doe out a block or so in front of me over a hill.
Eventually the mom comes by to pick up the yearlings.They circle around and begin to feed on hedge balls and browse right beneath my stand.Like Scott figured too nothing better than a live decoy I passed on these deer.All this commotion happened I'd say in a period of 2 hours I'd say.This nice weather is a blessing now.I just could'nt shoot at any of those three yesterday with the way things are gong on here now.I'm gonna pick and choose my shot here and live with the consequences.
BowEd:
Scott...I'm not a user of those kind of quivers but that looks pretty cool.A copperhead skinned one on an osage bow.
Stringman:
Thanks Ed. This time of year is pure magic and the more you can be out the better! Love watching the woods when anything could happen!
