I wanted to wish everyone a safe and tag filled opening morning of gun season. Everyone be safe and remember to wear a safety harness if your in a stand. This will be my last post until Saturday afternoon. Between BOA Nationals this weekend and deer hunting its going to be a little crazy. This weather has really screwed up the rut in my opinion. I was in the stand for 13 hours yesterday to only see 6 deer. I had been seeing 20-25 in 6 hours. I was able to see a really nice 6 pointer 140 class and either a 12-or 14 pointer pushing 180 class. You can imagine which I would like to see Saturday AM. Good luck to everyone and be safe!!!

This morning at 8:30, i saw the biggest buck i have ever seen on our farm, chasing a doe. Wasn't running my direction though. I was trying to stay out all day, but around noon, the wind started picking up and it started pouring rain and has been all day and nothing was moving because of it.

put a over 1 mile stalk on a buck and a doe and got in range of the buck, but he was between me and someone esle. spoooked a few does in the process too. started walking back towards the farm and this sucker comes runnin out of the woods right at me at 5 yds with his head down!!stopped and ran away but i didnt get a chance to shoot. the guy i hunt with was settin up over there and he had just crawled into a blind and hadn't even sat down whenbucks cam running into the woods. the scope on his 44 was fogged up and tried to shoot ith the iron sights but missed. the buck i had chased was in the group and he looked t obe about a 120-125 class 9-10 point. i got setup after that and didn't see a thing. on the way out i took a 100yd hail mary with hardly iany light shot at a doe and missed.

I'm glad you guys had some action and congrats on the doe coonhunter! We were back out this evening sittin' in the rain and didn't see a thing again. Probably the least shots I've ever heard on opening day.
