There's been some really nice bucks killed in the past 2-days.
Saw 13-deer yesterday and have some dandy bucks on my cams!
Today should be good.

Got a stinky young one today.
Came into rattling fast.

Nice. What cartridge you shooting? I gotta try to remember to bring some sheds with me this weekend.

First neighborhood rutty buck I’ve seen this year.. There was a big spike chasing a doe and fawn in my driveway this morning. He was grunting at them.

I was in another blind at the opposite side of my property and my son was on his way to baseball practice. :bash:

 Now there is a blind with my son on it today. :chuckle:

Picking up several BT bucks on our property but a new one showed up last weekend.
Everyone lives off the land.  Some of us simply have more fun doing it.

Lots of rubs tonight and saw a small 2 or 3 point I couldn’t get the kids on quick enough. Looks promising!

Seeing a lot more deer activity during the day over the last week. The last couple of days of the modern season should be great.
The best friend a guy could have asked for. RIP chasing pheasants in heaven Denali girl.

Saw 9 deer today. A small forky and a spike were the only bucks.  Bumped the Forky who was bed down with a doe and the spike was by himself. 

Will be back out in the AM.

Buddy showed me a video from his father of an avg 2 point just running around like crazy. Saw him in 4 different clearcuts in one afternoon. At one point he was 40 yards away with no care in the world except girls of course.
