Went out with the bow for a little this morning. Nothing going on. Found this area last year in early November that was just torn up with rubs and scrapes. Fresh tracks every where. Then by the time I had put it a stand in there it was the last week of November and the sign just wasn't really there anymore. So, I figured it was an a good rut spot (first couple weeks of Novemeber). Put a cam out there mid October, and the pictures confirmed my hypothesis. From November 1st through about the 20th it was buck central. Then they were gone. Till next November I guess.

Drove by my family's property in Zone 7 and had 3 deer standing in the field, This is at 3:15 So i'm thinking do I have enough time to run home grab my bow and put on a quick stock before I have to bring My daughter to swim. I get home it's 3:30, grabbed my Bow run back by 3:45. It's a 45 yard shot, Sneaked up and I dropped the biggest Doe!
That's how it would of played out if I went back, needless to say Were on our way to Swim Practice... Good Luck to all and Congrats to who Connected!

Well does were the goal and that's what we got! I got one and 2 other guys I hunted with got one. Saw over 20 doe and a spike. All pushing. You gotta push in there. They know we're in there and just go to the thickest nastiest stuff. Shout out to Chris platzer (CPand some numbers). He gave me some really good advice on how to hunt that place and it paid off!
