Anything stirring out that way Young County hunters? Headed out early tomorrow morning..

Sitting in the blind now DQ. Haven't seen anything all day. Still have a couple hrs though. Had a few durring the early morning yestraday but of course I wasn't here.


Good luck tomorrow. I will be out in the am till noon more then Likely.

Haven't seen a deer in 4 days. But I did get a hog and a coyote. Got one more day to find a deer

Good job pink on the mangy yote and pig; what is that weapon of death that you're wielding there, a .30-.30 topped with a Redfield or .45-.70?

Question Pink, how wet are the pastures out there as I'm not running 4x4? Most of my roads are more pasture lane like with some grass on them.

It's a deadly killing machine. Lol. My great uncle gave it to me when I was a kid and it's been a good one! 30-30. Broke my heart last year when I had to replace the original scope, and added a Redfield Revenge 4-Plex. I'm happy with it now that it has taken a few
Wow the ice and sleet and rain has created a mess!! Been slipping in 4 wheel drive for days

Heading to blind. Good luck to every one today.

Good luck guy's, take 2 hats, one to replace the other that blows away!

Nice kills Pink, I also have a "JM" stamped Marlin "tirty-tirty" and love it

Good Morning and good luck everyone!

that's a mighty fine rifle right there
still have the same version my dad gave me when I was a kid
my little 30 30 has killed more deer than most will ever see
it is for sure a killing machine ...I have loaned it over the years to countless friends
3 of them have deer mounted they took with it .....
several have begged me to sell it to them
of course I don't hunt with her these days
but boy howdy will it clock em at 100 yards

Great job on the pig and yote there pink camo. Big flight of mallards hit my middle tank this am, dozens of dove, cranes and one yote who never gave me a shot was all I saw. Only seen 3 doe since 12/21.

Nice job Pink! Every now and then will pull out the Marlin 30AS for old times sake. Got my first deer with that rifle, iron sights and all.

You're such an inspiration, Pink. Our hats are off to you.

This dude showed up early morning X-Mas. Hopefully he made it through the season and I'd like to see him next season.

DQ, did you do any good yesterday?

7A, I did no good yesterday, pretty windy in the morning with the front coming through and shut down the afternoon hunt around 3:30 to hear the Cowboy game on radio driving home. Hard hunting year. Some decent ones starting come back in to feeders, mostly at night the past 2-3 weeks with the colder temperatures. The wheat foodplot had tons of tracks throughout the year but mostly hit at night apparently. Hoping for more fruitful next year...

Yeah- rough year for me too- I def put in the hours in the blind and hiking around. Unfortunately our deer were creatures of the night- I got skunked.
I guess that is hunting-

Hi guys,
Saw more deer on the way to the lease than on the lease.
Is the Graham young county area known for nocturnal deer?

Almost all of our trail cam photos were at night.

They certainly seemed to go nocturnal earlier this than in years past. Lat year at the ed of the season we'd see 8-10 does almost every evening, this year we saw the same numbers but on the cameras at night. Just a weird year. I rarely hunt the spike doe add on but I might this year, just not big on gutting does that were bred a couple of months ago. It's time to fill the protein feeder though so I might go sit for a spike if it looks like a good day for it. We're grinding meat this coming weekend anyway.

Yup, bow season is usually a good time of year to try and harvest a mature one as well as up to about Thanksgiving. My history has proven that after Thanksgiving, the deer go very nocturnal out that way.

7A, fill up that protein feeder, I'm starting to get nightly mature buck activity at mine for the past 2-3 weeks.

It's on the list for the next few weeks will try to get it done this weekend. I'm convinced that as small as my place is we see the numbers that we do because of the 2k food plot I invest in. Lord knows the real ones all died within weeks of popping due to the lack of rain.

Back at it trying to get a doe for the freezer. Cold and windy saw 4 doe at about 5.45. Boy they had their antennas up as the were downwind of me about 200 yds. They came to a corned road and the shooter I wanted never hit the corn but went right to the cover. The other 3 busted me after about 3-4 minutes. Never got the gun up. Good to have some action.

On another note, saw another yote at 4.30. They are thick. 5 straight sits I've seen one. Never gave me a shot.
Back at it thru Sun am.

Not much stirring on a perfect light wind cold morning. Deer were moving at 6am as I saw 6 deer south of my place including a mature bodied buck. Did not get a look at his headgear but his body and square head told me he was 4.5 or older. May be time to shoot some ducks.

I had no luck this year... Shot one doe and a cull 3pt... All my good buck have been nocturnal... But then again we wanted to cull this year by buddy took out a big 6pt... We had allot of small 8pt and two big 8 and 10pt hopefully get to see them next year
