Been hunting the Colbert area all year. The week of the 12th a lot of chasing. All young bucks. Hunted in the wind the past few days. Bucks are alone now. Had 10 does together. About 30 minutes later is when I saw the buck. Had one last night by himself.

Hunted from 12:30 to dark this evening. Deer were really on their feet after the rain with this cool weather.
Saw 9 does and 3 bucks

Found the first shed of the season, even though it’s not from this year

Any of you good folks, hunt turkeys?

Any of you good folks, hunt turkeys?

Well nobody answered me. I guess I got the whole place to myself. How 'bout deer, any one but me going to hunt them?

 

[Kootie]

Yes Sir - I'll be there.

 

[Esau]

Yes Sir - I'll be there.

Good to have some company. It looks like it may be a good year!

 

[Kootie]

I agree....cameras showing good quality and numbers. Saw plenty of Fawns this year and they seem to be surviving. We started relocating a few stands, trimming shooting lanes, etc....Still to Hot!

 

[Lshaw97]

Yeah I’ll be hunting every weekend I’m home from college and maybe more haha

 

[Esau]

Been in the woods for the last few days. I have walked about 7 miles and it seems there a plenty of deer. The soft mast is doing great. I am only finding a few scattered acorns, not the bunches I'm hearing about in other places. How about you folks, seeing many acorns?

 

[Kootie]

Acorn crop looked about average to me. Shaping up for a good year

 

[Lshaw97]

Spending the first afternoon in a ground blind, any one else grab the bow?

 

[Kootie]

No sir....waiting on rifle season.

 

[Esau]

Got out in the woods Saturday. Beautiful morning, saw several deer nothing in my bow range. I limit my shots to 20 yards and in, so it is kinda tough.

Any of you fellas that hunt southern Madison county ever run across any rattlers? I'm just curious. I'm across the river in Oglethorpe. The saying is they stay South of HWY 78 in this county.
