Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Bowhunting Live From My Stand 2020

Good luck Dan, I shot a nice doe yesterday evening, so have some meat. Now for a Buck.

Stuff is going down here but I was in wrong place wrong time again
Ended up seeing 4 doe in morning (hunted till 11am) and no deer in my afternoon sit 2pm till dark
they were running all around near barn where I park and across street 5 bucks 3 being shooter...my cousin passed another nice 8 pt on that side of the road

Guess I was right to have waited for the front to move through my area.

Took a decent 8 onTuesday afternoon 10/27. One shot through the pump station.
Blood trail for 80' where I found him lying.

As is the theme this season hunted the wrong property it was going down late morning yesterday where I wasn’t

This was pretty cool picked up this buck coming from 120 yds away then past 2nd camera as I watched him and then he passed giving me a 15 yd shot
It’s sad to say this is the 1st buck I could have killed this season normally I’ve passed 20 shots on buck by this time

Windy as heck yesterday afternoon and today like wizard of Oz wind
I saw a couple small buck and doe yesterday morning and a couple bodies in thick stuff I couldn't identify
I hunted till after 11 am and then decided to check on the old Turk property I've not checked camera cards since 10/21
I was plesantly suprised to see a good buck has shown up on 10/30 and 11/1 albeit at night so far
Wind looks like it will have me sidelined today and tommorow

Great pictures ! thanks for posting them very much,Pete53

Buck showed up again on turk property and Jabbar has made an apparence tonight!

Sorry for the late posting but everything has been hectic with the hunting,work and election
Yesteray morning I has 2 small buck come right past me on the Jabbar property,there had been activty on my cell cameras all night and Jabbar was through the area. Things petered out fast as temperaters rose to 70 degrees yesterday.
The afternoon hunt had me scratching my head on where to hunt. I drove all the way to the Jabbar property and as I got there decided to leave and go to the old turk property.
I finally had the right wind to hunt the pine stand over looking the golden rod field with apple tree.
Bumped 2 doe coming into the property.checked camera cards on the way in and the big 8pt had come by apple tree cam at 3:30 am
I settled in with the 70 degree weather and bugs flying around my head.
I saw 1 doe in the distance and she worked her way away from me.

Then with about 1/2 hr of light still left I saw movment 140 yds away on the ridge across from me,it was a buck and he looked good with the breif glance I got of him as he slipped acrose the bank and out of sight.
Now what happened next is something I have never seen nor experience in all my years of hunting!
As he slips out of sight I grab my grunt call and give 3 loud deep grunts. Next thing I see is a flash of brown 142 yds away come barreling towards me,he turned and came running at full speed he went down into the gully and up over the crest on my side he runs over and straight at me he stops about 70 yards aeay dead i n front of me. He's looking and starts to walk right at me,
He stops again and he starts looking in to the hardwoods beyond me and to his right. I have had 2 squirrels chasing each other around all afternoon so I figured he hears them russeling in the leaves. He turns towards the hardwoods and strts to walk that way but on an angle stil in my direction. I hit the grunt again once he id in the woods and he stops and looks but move forward and the I see the doe that had gotten his attention away from me .
He runs at her and she eludes him and starts walking right towards me! great she is going to walk out right on the run past my tree I think!
Nope my bad luck kicks back in and the buck runs at her again and she bolts back in the opposite direction from my and he follows her away through the hardwoods towards the front of the property.

I sat for the rest of the hunt and saw 1 smal doe work her way to the apple tree. As it was almost time to climb dowm my alert goes of from one of my cell cameras. Stone fence camera it's jabbar going past my stand to the scrape it over looks. Can't say it was a bad call going where I did as I almost grunted in a shooter buck. I got a picture of hi going by my stand and camera on the front of the property.
I'll keep trying to it will be unseasonably warm( 60's to 70) degrees all the way till next Thursady.


Buck I grunted in(time is 1 hr off )



Jabbar paying a visit

Long Island,N.Y. score 198

Coyote christened my BIL's new camera.

LOL... he’s making a statement.

OK back to real stuff (sqweeler start your own thread)

Morning yesterday was slow a small spike and doe 1st 1/2 hour after light
Afternoon was much better saw 3 buck 2 of which were shooters. One on neighboring property in a green field he started heading in my direction but never materialized. 2nd was a long beamed 8 pt and he came out of the thick bruch right in front of my stand and crossed at 35 yds but I had no shot, I grunted and he continued over the stone fence and then walked the hill paralel with me with his nose to the ground I hit the grunt again but it didn't even phase him. Two totally different reactions to grunt the past 2 days on came in like a freight train and the other never acknowledged it
I didn't get any good pictures through the night and very little movement at all.
I hunt the 1st hour or two this morning then last couple this afternoon
