I was on the road at daybreak Friday and the deer were everywhere. Saw bucks, does and fawns and bucks chasing does everywhere. No wonder that buck you shot had no fat, the does are too busy looking sexy and keeping his mind off from food.

He was definitely on the prowl. Makes sense. I've heard of bucks dying during winter because they were so wore down from the rut. I wonder if they have a smile on their face when they go.
Opening day of rifle here in Oklahoma.
Shot a bow buck yesterday.
Looking for a bruiser now.
Good luck everyone

I’m back in the blind again. This time with my youngest Son.
He hasn’t hunted in almost 10’years as he was busy wrestling in HS & College.
Now that he has completed college, he’s in the blind.
We have seen a Wood Pecker, and that’s it.
Not even the squirrel I have seen regularly is out and about this morning.
One thing I will say, this kid has more sleeping positions in the chair, than I have fishing lies *Cough* stories.
That said, I attribute it to actual FRESH AIR.
It takes over some times and causes me to sleep as well.

Sparty,
What road? I’ve got a pop up, I’m not proud, I’ll hunt the roadside……..
*No officer, I’m not illegal, this a Autonomous Safety Zone for hunting*

Find the squirrels, find the deer.
Hey OE, my son was a HS wrestler too. Finished 2nd at State, Div. 4, 2 years in a row. He made a bad hit on a doe yesterday. On the 3rd search 14 hours after the shot him and a buddy found it. 734 yards from where he shot it. Those wrestlers just have no quit, eh?
No quit at all, none what so ever.
This is the first time he has been firearm hunting in almost 10 years. So far we have seen nothing, but he got a spike during bow season.
This spring he finished up wrestling at CoralVille Iowa for the DIII National Championships.
Qualified, no easy feat, wrestled to the quarter finals, and lost to the eventual DIII Champion, and his next match he lost as well to the eventual 3rd Place finisher.
6th, 7th, & 8th, he would have mopped the floor with….
But as you know, it’s how the chart gets seeded some times.
His senior year every one bailed from his weight class. It was packed, with hammers.
Doesn’t surprise me when you say he was a wrestler, tracked to some 700 yards and didn’t quit,
