Bucks are definitely starting to act a little bucky. This community scrape gets every buck in the area year after year. The past week it's strarted. Also on of our better action camera locations had been where we put a little watering whole beside a clover and chicory food plot. This area usually flooded out the plot so we dug a spot and let the plot drain into it and the deer and turkey have been pounding it! Just some food for thought for guys with property they can move dirt on.

Just want to wish everyone luck as you hit the woods this season!! May many bucks fall! Also to remind everyone to be SAFE and to always wear a harness while in a tree. I had a real eye awakening experience this past weekend in Ohio. Was climbing down the tree after an evening hunt, way back in the woods. I was using a climber and while climbing down in the dark one of my feet slipped from the bottum section of the stand. This style climber is an open face ( no bar). Needless to say I was roughly 15 feet in the air at this point and hanging on by just my hands! After I took a few deep breaths and told my self not to panic I was able to pull the bottum section that was still hooked to my other foot up enough to catch the tree. Very scary experience and that will more then likely be the last time I use a climber! That being said don't be a statistic and wear a harness! Good luck and be safe!

As I sit here at work contemplating as I do every year around this time to try and pin point when to start logging my vacation time! Just wondering what others are thinking is to when they are going to try and spend the most time in a tree this season? The obvious last week of October and 1st 2 weeks on November are the lock, just not sure exactly when I want to do it this year. I usually wait untill the last minute to try and check what weather is in the near future but, just part of the fun is trying to strategies the attack!

Well so far here in Ohio has been tough to say the least! Scouted all day yesterday in 96 degree weather!! Absolutely brutal! Didn't find anything that I could have confidence in so rather then wasting time in a tree I put more boot work In instead this morning. After covering a TON of ground I finally found a great spot along the edge of a corn field. Acorns, tons of trails, scrapes, rubs, and dropping that prove there is at least one buck in that area. Heading in shortly to try and get on one. Very long walks and mountain climbing to get back in there. Much different then back home! We did do some driving around and whent by a house where we saw a buck in the back of the pick up so we stopped to check it out. Young girl killed it and was her first deer! Proves that they do exist!

On my way to our lease yesterday, we traveling south on Drake rd in Hamlin and noticed two deer laying dead in the ditch. Pulled over to investigate and saw two bucks piled on top of each other. Both were missing their back straps. The one was a huge body and the head was missing!! The other was a first rack 6pt. Will a little more investigation we noticed the they were shot with a rifle and not that long ago!! Poachers make me sick!! I wish I could find the scum bags who did this! I did contact the DEC even though there us nothing they can do at this point I'm sure.

I have ran the Accura V2 for the last 3 seasons. Great gun! 100 grains of powder with a Barnes Expander is a nasty combination. Easy to clean also. The only difference between the Accura and the Optima are the barrels. Accura comes with Bargarra barrel and the Optima does not.
