Guess what day it is ????
Traveling day … we from Florida so 70 don’t scare us we got sunscreen

It’s 5 days in a row for several good bucks traveling same pattern … any day it will be in daylight and hopefully the kids are in the favorite perch’s

Also the old warrior 6 point I posted maybe in slow motion thread about Paducah asked if I work at CNN bc I’m fake news he is a 7
Kids named him RIP

JT I had oats and honey granola bar and coffee ( breakfast of champions) until the pound cake pictures start. As I’m typing this a beautiful 6pt stroll’s by so I guess all the noise don’t matter.

Buck movement is picking up even with the warm temps, getting a few pictures of bucks on the movie at night and one this morning in southern IL.

I may have goofed not shooting him. After watching him, he’s a solid 4.5 year old. I know there are much better deer in the area score wise. But he was mature

Thanks for all the inspiring hunting updates across the country including the Great Plains of Kansas, Midwest of Illinois & Missouri, and the Southeast of Georgia. Way to get after 'em. Hope ya'll get what you're after in Buckvember & Bucktober with the rut ramping up. Currently seeing lots of whitetails laying on the sides of roads.

Here's more inspiration in recent photos from GON's home page below.



Gwinnett Giant Taken With 7 Yard Chip Shot

Terry Hollis waited and planned for four years for this moment.

November 1, 2022

Terry Hollis with his giant Gwinnett County buck he took on the morning of Nov. 1.

69-year-old hunter from Loganville

16-pointer showed up at 7:32 a.m. on Nov. 1

“I’ve been watching this deer for four years,” said Terry. “Back in the summer, I knew it was going to be a deer I wanted to shoot. I went and bought a nice crossbow, I used to hunt with a compound.”

Terry’s son put a rough tape on the deer. The main-frame 10-pointer has six additional kicker points, and they taped the deer at 200 4/8 inches. The deer has 7 inch bases.

Hey a bite size candy bar! It's surprising what you can find in all these coat pockets. Not sure how old it is but it shouldn't hurt me. Now back to hunting

Looking at the forecast I’m thinking Bubba might be on to something cool AM’s warm PM’s only one good day in forecast before I head north to hunt with Spikes n Spurs in Lewistown Mo where temps drop down into upper 20’s at night and mid 40’s for highs my first trip since 2018 at KFO

Never have thought they worry about the things they can hear and know what and where they are. They worry more about the little noises that they can't positively identify as OK.

Been listening to these danged things all morning. Probably 20 in total with at least 3 of them toms gobbling off and on and all fanned out.

If love to say they've entertained me, but a few minutes of fall turkeys is a plenty

Had this one come cruising by at 8:50 this morning. Was texting my brother and look up and he’s standing in roadbed less than 15 yards, never heard him. Almost bit in the tail again with a phone in my hand. Folks, I’m just a slow learner. Still could have shot him but not quite my minimum yet.

Yes sir, tried to sneak in a quick hunt yesterday afternoon before loggers started thinning timber - I missed it by a day (they were already ready cutting). I decided to hunt anyway since I was already there, they were cutting about 1000 yards behind me, I could hear them talking. Ended up seeing 11 or 12 deer including a couple of 3.5 year bucks, none of the deer paid the loggers any attention.

One day I hope I have high standards like that. The phone gets my in trouble also. One would think I would learn… nope

MONSTER.
Doe came to water. He wasn’t far behind. No shot yet.
They are bedded 60 yards from me in some thick stuff.
