Hey to all again. Whenever the main page went down i thought the entire website had gone down so thats why i havent been on here. Ive been out a couple of times but been busy with the new job (Jasper Engines and Transmissions) but last week i got permission on a new property and got to it. I saw 12 does on my first hunt which lasted about 3 hours so not bad at all. Second hunt was Friday and obviously with 30 mph sustained winds and trees falling over didnt see anything. Sunday i was in the woods for almost the entire day except an hour and a half spent eating. I had seen one doe that morning. Got down about 10:30 and scouted a bit since i dont know any of the property. Saw 9 more. Went and hung a tree stand and saw 18 deer standing on the ground trying to get it put up 
one of which was a shooter buck at 90ish yards that didnt even notice me. I went and got my bow and gear and set up. next thing i know the farmers here to finally take out the corn. My luck happened to be that i was less than 50 yards from the access trail because the deer were using it at a travel corridor. naturally i thought my night was busted but i figured he might run some outve the corn so i hung around. two hours later and no deer a doe comes up draw back she turned strait away from me and locks onto something... the grain cart coming up the trail. naturally she busted and ran outve range. Less than 20 minutes later i look on the trail and all i see is huge body and a VERY nice looking rack. so i grunted and here he came. he jumped off the access road and froze. Sure enough mr grain cart is coming back. but for some reason he froze and didnt move. once the cart had passed i grunted again and here he comes. before i know it he is 15 yards broadside. Sadly this bruiser had met his match and was missing his right side past his brow so he got the pass. But this new property looks promising and with the corn out it can only get better. AND if that big boy got messed up like that then there has to be an even bigger one running around somewhere. I havent even had a chance to run a camera out there so im going in blind without knowing any of the property and so far its going well. Hopefully ill have a deer on the ground to show you all before much longer. Sorry for the essay but working so much im not sure how often ill be on here so i figured id make the most of it 
My cousin hunts the property that neighbors mine to the north and our two corn fields are connected. He said last year in gun season it was nothing to see over 10 deer everyday in my property's corn field so come gun season i should definately have plenty of targets. 
Good luck all and happy hunting!
