Thread on all of the midwest LIVE FROM THE TREE going on all season from state to state from Bubbabuck and the gang telling stories of the beast coming by and the near chances off having a shot while Jim Thompson is reporting from his house this year instead of the stand but if he was in the stand he would be in the wrong spot not seeing any deer and just taking pictures of his feet and posting them.:bounce::bounce::bounce: ::ke: :stir:

10-4. I look forward to reading about the adventures. I hope to get to go out west hunting some day.

Day 15, Baby... Day 15... two weeks from tomorrow!

Watched the game in St Louis last night and saw all of those bundled up people... will be hunting very close to that area - glad to see that cooler weather coming in.

I am not packed YET - cause I am still hunting in SC - but I am starting to "organize" my piles!!!

Let's see here... 15 days = 360 hours = 21,600 minutes. I can almost see that far!

13 hour drive (one way) and fuel bills.

Lease fees (2).

Motel costs.

2 permits in Illinois and 1 in Missouri.

Eats.

Cold beer.

Misc. Supplies.

$$$? I quit counting!

Sitting in a wooded ravine between a bean field and a cut corn field on 5 November at 6:00 am with a steaming cup of coffee... as you sit there in the darkness... waiting on daylight to begin to peek through... praying that a big boy cruises by?

Priceless!!!

Good to hear bubbabuck is going to finally re-introduce JT to deer hunting in the Midwest whitetail wonderland for the 1st time going this year even though "rumor" has it we keep hearing he's still living up there. Glad you did not let Jim give up on this great American tradition after his 1-month deer season delay. LOL

Yep....I always wanted a kid to take hunting with me.....well I got one !!:O:O....Except this one never grows up !!!!:eek::eek::eek:.....and eats alot !!:hair:
