Great report and cool pics Josh - thanks for sharing!  It's somewhat comforting to hear others missing chip shots occasionally too.   :tung:

Look's like some cool country. I am glad you had a safe trip over there and got to see some deer.

That's why it's called "hunting".

Great report and photos. Thanks for sharing.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

Being out there was still better than the best day of work.  Good job getting out and meeting up with some members, sounds like it was a great time.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Sorry about your luck, Jack. Sounds like a great hunt though.

Glad you had a good time and saw some descent bucks. Just getting away for a while rejuvenates the mind and soul.

Brutal so far... see the same 4 points every morning. And then they disappear for the day. Looking for the 5 point that we haven't seen yet. Weather has been to hot. We have 3 tags and nothing on the ground. But we are passing on bucks and it is killing me.

Just remember...you can't kill big ones if you shoot smaller ones.  Hopefully weather will change....things can kick in quickly.  Got fingers crossed here for ya....good luck. :tup:

Get back up after the big fella. He'll be there waiting for you. 2 days to go? Git r dun.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
