Any reports from Wilkes? Doesn’t look like any white oaks this year on my place. red oak crop looks fair. Also not much in the way of muscadines or persimmons.
As typical on my place, getting mostly doe pics on trail cams and a few small bucks. Waiting for a mature buck or two to start showing up soon. Usually begins on my place early October.
I finally closed last week on an additional 30 acres that borders my land. Hunted it last weekend and first deer I saw was a really nice mature 8 pointer. He winded me at 75-80 yards at 8am.
Then at 9:00 five mature does came in. No fawns. I shot a doe at 25 yards and she crashed 50 yards away.
When I got down I found a huge community scrape that all the does we’re visiting. The buck was probably on way to check it if he hadn’t smelled me.
While I dragged out doe, saw a few more scrapes and several nice rubs. Gonna be a good spot!!!
Looks like we may get some rain week after next. Gonna finish planting food plots then!
