They are on fire right now. Will be back up this coming weekend. A week before and a week after Halloween is generally the best. Mark it on your calendar.
Had several bucks dogging does this past weekend but none were the 3 good ones we have on trail cams. Holding out for one of those. One is close to 130"
They ought to be on their feet after the rain on Thursday/Friday and temps in the 40's in the morning. We are about a mile or so East of Covena.
Came up mid day yesterday for the opener. Little rain to deal with and a few does/yearlings seen.
This morninginv was slow, action sporadic, maybe a deer or two every hour. Scrapes have been reopened since the rain but bucks are still being lazy. Right now in a ladder on a isolated plot with a beaver swamp to my North and oaks and pines elsewhere. Fixing to do a little rattling.
Shot two sows around 90 pounds in a pack of 7 around 5:30, meat is being donated.
Shot the first and second attacked it when it was flopping, shot the second and she dropped on the first. Nice to have all the vittles stacked up in one spot
