Thanks BJ , much appreciated. Ya my woods are a mess also Glen, but the deer don't seem to mind, ;) just going to have to put in a lot of boot work after he is done this winter and make some adjustments on stand placement and maybe cut a few trails. Still makes me sad to see but like I have said before "had to be done" We still have a lot of ash but word is the same thing that happened up north is starting to happen here so just a matter of time.  :( Got a few stories and pictures to share as soon as I get time to rework the pictures, Beau/Joe and I are heading down this evening for a couple of days hunting, I have bucked out so will be doe only for me and not sure how much I will hunt , got plenty of other things to keep me busy. 2 more deer to skin and process and a couple of hides to flesh and get in the rack. Story on my last hunt when I get back. Hope yall have a Blessed weekend , I know I have. Life is Good. :) :)

I went down to the cabin last Sunday evening to help Beau track a deer, It was late getting it out so decided to stay a few days, had deer to sking and cut up and a few more projects that I had put off the last few weeks, Miss Joanie is doing much better and with cell phones I felt pretty good about her being at home alone. Have been having some problems with kids coming in on ATV's and 4 wheeler's so needed to put up some cables and signs, don't know what is wrong with people but happens everywhere it seems. :) New signs and getting meat ready from Beau's deer to package.  :)

Didn't show of Beau's weapon because it had training wheels on it  ??? ;) :) But it was a nice 137 lb 8 point and made about 19 lbs of burger and 21 lbs of steaks plus 2 shoulder for the Classic feed.Got it all cut up and in the freezer. My girls love this time of year, fat and sassy.  :)

Then it was my time  :) #2 for me, he was 166 lb 7 point, had a brow tine broke off and a G2 broke half off, you could tell he was quite the old warrior, still green scored 117 inches. I heart shot him at 8 yards and he ran 75 or so. Easy track but not such as easy drag out. Got him skinned the next morning, hide fleshed ready to rack and head ready to euro mount, the sprayer is one Clint [osageoutlaw] sent me to get the brains out when you are mounting one, he knew I love to save them and this thing works like a champ, pushing them right out mostly intact. use it on everyone I euro mount. :) :)

Jimmy Blackmon showed up to work on an old stave Gary Davis had given him 10/12 years ago, I spotted it right off and knew it was one of Gary's, he made some good head way on it , Gary made it easy to make good head way pretty fast. ;) I sure miss him. :( I got Beau's deer cut up and ready for the freezer, I am feeling more like my self again Hunting/skinning and processing deer this time of year and it feels pretty good.  :)
