I live east of muskogee about 15 minutes from tahlequah and its hard to tell does from fawns here, And the bucks I have seen arent too much bigger. The deer are awfully small in this area. I dont hunt around the house unless I have too, try do do most of my hunting in western oklahoma. But you...
we have gotten drawn 3 out of 5 years, I think if you have multiple hunters you chances are better. and the year you dont get drawn the preference points help. we try to put in for hunts with the most tags.
I have shot two does this year, but no buck yet. passed up a couple smaller ones to try and get the big buck seen on our place but havent gotten that chance yet, hopefully this weekend
I sit on the southwest corner of the field and he comes out on the east end of the field so long as there is a north wind he cant smell me, so wind is not the factor here because the wind is always in my face. I always spray down with scent killer and use a drag while walking to my stand. He is...
That was my plan for this morning to use a decoy, I've never used a decoy on the place before. I figured if he skirted the field he would see the decoy and come on out. He did stare at it very hard and walked around in circles for a second but he was not coming in the open field for nothing. I...
We have had this encounter with a huge buck in Pawnee county for three years. we have a 1 acre field shaped in a perfect square. Our stand sits off the field about 10 yards in the corner of the field. There are no other feasable trees on the field for a stand. the oppossite side of our stand is...
I hunted today from 1 pm until dark, didnt see a thing but a couple of squirrels in Pawnee county. We saw deer all last weekend. dont know if the wind was a problem today or if they just werent moving.
I bowhunted the wma in Okmulgee a couple years ago, The only time they allow guns is for the controlled hunts otherwise its just for bowhunting and lots of deer there also. but the public hunting area there was full of gun hunters
If it would have been a gunshot right there in his shoulder, I wouldnt think he would be walking around worrying about a feeder, lol. probably just got hurt in a fight
first morning we didnt see anything but one squirell. First evening about 5 deer came in the field from all directions, no big bucks but i saw 3 small bucks and 8-9 doe. so i took my doe the first evening. Second morning nothing either, didnt hunt this evening. Gonna stay out for a few days...
Think i have all my crap loaded, i will keep checking all day. I hate forgetting something and its always something you really needed. I guess if i do forget something the stillwater wal-mart is only 20 minutes away
I have been looking at a few different forums, peeing and smoking in the stand forums. Alot of people say it doesnt bother them and some say it does. I have peed from my stand and I have smoked from my stand and still tag out every year. I try not to do these things as much as possible but...
went to pawnee this morning to refill our feeders, there were 4-5 does and a buck at the feeder and that was about noon. hope they come through early saturday
hunted the controlled hunt there 2 years ago, only saw one buck and he was in a hurry to get somewhere, lol. And that was the only one my father or i saw that day
my wife has a bunch of land in pawnee we hunt, and my grandmother has alot of land near talihina. we live in muskogee so when we arent in the other two places we were wanting to find a place close to home so we started looking at cherokee. I know the deer here in muskogee are very small too. I...
