Well archery season went by fast... good luck everyone today. Be safe and shoot straight!

I had the same thing done a month ago. People suck! Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

So on the walk in I had a skunk cross my path... Should I take that as a cruel joke to my archery season? Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Tough weather conditions are on their way. Saturday afternoon thru Monday night. Winds look terrible.

No doubt. Every year, it never fails. Its a sign that breeding is at its peak.

The great view! Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

The most important thing in the off season is doing your homework. Scouting. Learning every ounce of the property. Habit enhancement. Food plots. Cameras. Hanging stands.The list is endless... But it all helps.With all the work done in the off season, now you enjoy hunting. Stay sharp, persistent, and disciplined. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

So far just two young bucks cruising together. Lockdown. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

So here's a pic of the buck that I missed two nights ago at 31 yards. I took the afternoon off yesterday from hunting. I shot two dozen arrows yesterday and it confirmed that the miss was all me. I figured as much. It should never be the equipment. I also Hung a new set midday yesterday with hopes to sit in it for the final two days of the archery season. The clock is ticking...

I haven't. But I've have hunted here long enough to know how this woods reacts to certain winds. This stand is set for SW wind but any south wind is virtually the same.Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Pretty quiet morning. I have only seen a four point so far. Weather wise it is another perfect day to be in the stand. Wind is the complete opposite of what is forecasted. NE instead of SW Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Wow... Blew the shot. Stud 8. Came into the grunt call. Tough to judge distance in the field and shot over his back. Wow... Can I get a Mulligan? Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

330 in the afternoon and the Big 10 is on his feet... thats twice this week I've seen him do that. Might have to relocate a stand! Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Winter storm coming to wny this weekend? http://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/news/2016/11/15/winter-storm-headed-our-way/93895570/ Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Stepped on a mature buck walking on this morning. He was bedded on the path I walk in on. He looked to be the busted up mature buck I saw chasing a doe last night. The wind is goofy but I'm back in the same stand this afternoon. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Lone fawns... At least four of them so far today. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Big old moon hanging in the sky this morning. I have been covered in deer since the walk out. Had another busted up buck just walk past the stand. All that we left of his rack was a 4" spike on one side. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Last night was another great night to be in the woods... animals galore! 4 turkeys, murder of 100+ crows, 75+ geese, 1 grey fox, 1 feral cat, and 17 deer (5 bucks) all made their way into the cut corn field. Lots of bumping, chasing, and grunting. I did see one shooter (big 8pt?) scent check a doe in the field and quickly left. There was some intense chasing by three "ugly" bucks. The first buck had both antlers broke off completely. The second buck looked to be a 2.5 year old 7pt and he had issues with his front right leg that made him look as if he was running with a peg leg and had a terrible limp. Third buck was a mature buck with a busted up rack. His right side looked mangled. Rough crew. The clock is ticking... Back at it again this morning.

Ha!

Saw a mature buck cruising the downwind side of woods face as i was trying to hang a new set after my morning hunt. 11:00 ish Nice to see them on their feet

Dealing with wind this morning. I hate wind. I have only seen a doe and fawn so far. They went by me at 100mph. Gotta assume they were trying to avoid male company. Sent from my E6782 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Saw this guy on his feet yesterday at 330. Unfortunately 200 yards and headed in the opposite direction. All the other action was close to dark. Does slowly filtered into the field followed by a year old buck that bumped, chased, and scent checked every single one of them.
