Last weekend of bow season before the militia fires it up next weekend.

Been seeing good numbers of deer; few too many does and some decent bucks.

This one got my attention but I’m looking for a different buck, although makes he the cut. He’s greenlit for my kids but when my son asked why I didn’t shoot him and I answered “ because I saw two bigger ones” he is probably gonna hold off. Guy has way more patience than I did when I was 17

This one will be a nice one in a few years.

This buck is on the list. Gonna let my son’s friend have a crack at him next weekend. He’s fairly regular and a pretty stout dude

This guy is a turd and also on the list for my son’s friend. He has a bad attitude and acts like he’s the man until a older buck shows up

On the fence about this one. He’s either a 4 year old or a 6 and I can’t tell. He’s a regular too. We will lay off him unless my son in college wants to come down to hunt. This would be his biggest buck, poor kid isn’t the best shot and hasn’t had the best of luck when it comes to deer.

Great pics. Thanks for posting. What you take the pics with?


At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR

Nice. One of my hunters just used his new Samsung phone today for video out here. He got it just to video deer so his phone is freed up. He said it has way better pics/video than iPhone. Surprises me.
Not to derail your thread. Nice deer.

Great pics. Hope the kids get after them. And...I always wanted to be in a militia. Will this post put me on a watch list?

Great pics. Based on the two pics I would think that deer is 5 or 6. I'f he's shot, I'd be interested in hearing his actual age. I try to judge deer but I seldom get to hear if I'm right or not. His face width and his shoulders say he's closer to 6. But I don't see a swayed back I would think a 6 year old would have. Speculation on my part.

Good luck to your kids and their friends.

Sat this evening.

This guy came in causing a ruckus, making scrapes and chasing off all the does.

Lots of good deer. I would be happy to take any of them.

At this point I think possessing a weapon and becoming self-sufficient enough to make meat will put you on the naughty list. Forum membership, alone 🤣

Concur, deer is 5-6, not 4

I work hard, drink a little and hunt when I can.

I hope so, the last 3 have been kind of slow.

You almost have as many deer as rocks. Looks like a great place to hunt.
