Did you find any?
I looked yesterday but didn't find any. Pics showed they still had them on 2-13 but some pics on 2-16 looked like big bodies that may have lost but couldn't be sure.
Found 4 so far. Best is half a Ten pointer. (I just assume both sides 5 pts)

Went and checked some trail cams on my lunch break. Found this laying 15 feet in front of one in a food plot. This is a buck that I was after this past season. I never saw him in person and wasn't 100% sure he hadn't gotten killed. Kind of glad I never got a look at him because he should be that much better in 6-7 months. He dropped both antlers sometime between the 21-31 of January.

Filed a police report for all my stands and another $1,000 worth of stuff stolen out of my conex box. Lock was cut and they emptied me out. Weed eater had a serial number on it and was brand new. Hopefully be able to track that one down to a pawn shop.

I tried to kill some coyotes.

Had a short set tonight at dark 30. Started with a rabbit in distress and finished with some female howls, barking, Beta male howls and the hunting howls.

It was quiet until I ripped the hunting howls and all heck broke loose. There were several all around me. And then my thermal's battery died. I forgot to charge it before I left and didn't realize until I was halfway to the farm. Suprized I got the time I did.

Good news is I really like my new Felxtone caller. It was half the price of either of the broken foxpro callers in my gun room. Not even worth sending the foxpros back to be repaired AGAIN.

This convinced me that the foxpros are junk. I will never buy another.

Operation is better. 2x the remote range. Many more calls. Remote is more intuitive.. And flextone says theirs are moisture proof (foxpros are not..a light drizzle killed one of mine 2x). I paid alot less for a new unit than foxpro charges to fix their junk.

I did a couple things today. I put out some corn, and let my 7 year old shoot the AR. He is determined to get his first buck this fall.

I must get down to south Ga in the next couple of weeks to put up a blind and a lock on. It's no rush, of course, but I would rather do it now than in the hot weather. I reckon I'm one of the only folks in the world who actually prefers winter time in Ga.
