Updated....New year, new clubs, great start!

[dsweat]

Lost my favorite lease a few years ago and it really killed my enthusiasm for hunting. Have spent a lot of time in the boat since. My Pop called me up a couple of weeks ago with 2 lease options. After discussing with the fellas, we decided to get both. Received these pictures this weekend. One from each club. Headed down to get stands in the woods soon! I think I have the fever again!

This is buck to right in upper pic. Amazing 2 weeks of growth. Should have pics sorted by Monday to show growth of the big one. May never see them but it's gonna be fun trying!

Wow. Good move on the new leases. Are these small personal leases or clubs? I'm not having any luck on anything close to shooters on my cameras. Trying to be patient! Good Luck!

dsweat,
If I was a betting man, I would say that you just might have hit a nice jackpot for sure !!!!

Those are some great bucks for sure. I am assuming that your area must have some type of agricultural fields etc that adds a lot to the diets of these deer.

I would say there is a fair amount of corn and peas in both areas. Winter clear cutting has created a lot of new growth and put a lot of food on the ground. We have had several feeders going for last 5 weeks. Amazing growth on several of these deer over that time period.
