Congrats eveveryone
Deer movement the last 24 hours has been pretty slow, but I ended up seeing a doe and 4 bucks this morning. One of the bucks was a 4 year old 10 point about 140 inches, and I sure hope he lives a couple more years. He has the makings of a monster buck. The others included a couple 2 year old 8 points and a 6 point.
It's raining now, and I'm hoping it will make them move earlier this evening.

Got this guy coming in pretty frequently always about 15min after I leave. Any tips and tricks to get him to come out a bit earlier? His buddy's are pretty nice looking too. One has the same amount of points but is wider than this guy. We have a lot of over cast today do you think this will get them moving earlier? I could of had him Saturday but I was in owasso sitting i n the parking lot while my wife shopped.
Possible that they will because of the cloud cover and cool. That's what I was hoping for last night but the antlers I was waiting on didn't appear during LSL. Can you move closer to their approach without disturbing?
Only saw one deer Saturday morning and it was this Gal with a curved back ear!
She came in from the wrong direction right too me, no shot other than with the camera phone :-)

So i did something I am not sure I will do again. I let a yearling doe live although I had a perfect shot. She was sooooo small and naive. My buddy was able to call her back to us three times in a row. She must have been really desperate for attention.
My main aim is to put meat in the freezer, but yet I did not close the deal with this one. Would you have done the same? or put a little...but very tender meat in the freezer?
Congrats to all the fine buck and doe harvesters!!

Yeah I probably could. That's actually an excellent idea....thanks.
If they're bedding close by it won't work of course, but if you know that they may be traveling for a few minutes before they get to you, it may give you some time. Kind of a risky move, but sometimes you have to hunt out of the box............which is easier out here where the wind helps cover you up. (except for the last week the wind has been almost zero everyday.)
Finally got some showing on my place. this one is the biggest yet, decent 10 point. what do you guys think he will make hi 130's?
