Any reports from the woods? Sightings? Shots? Dead deer?

    I hung up a tree stand and did a little turkey hunting/scouting. Deer season opens up the 15th for my self so its going to be a long 10 days. i did see a doe and a fawn and found what apears to be a pretty good trail going into a swamp

    My old man's backhand used to land,
    Hard on the side of my head.
    I just learned to stay out of his way.
    There's been streetfights, blue lights,
    Long nights with the world sittin' on my chest:
    It just showed me how much I could take.
    Hard times, bad luck.
    Sometimes, life sucks.
    That's all right, I'm ok.
    It ain't nothin' but another day.

    Well so far taco has first and biggest. Congrat's taco. And I hope you land the big guy when they push him out of his corn field.

    Buckey, I know the feeling. Walking in under that early morning light, it's as quiet as can be. You just can't move slow enough. Those deer know something's coming and just stop and stare until they know you can see them. Then they flip ya the tail. Oh well. You going to move your stand, or not worry about it this early?

    I have practiced a little more, and will hit my good ol' tree this weekend. MMMM, I'm thinking heart & liver for Sunday dinner. I can't believe you guys don't eat that. It's the best darn food you'll eat as long as you don't freeze it.

    Well anyway, good luck guys. HZ, something got that doe pregnant. If you don't see the big one, shoot the little one. MMMM Vielison, my favorite.

    lets have a biggest buck contest the winner gets all of Suspension's drug money.[B)] I Cant wait for my trip out to Illinois creeping up fast Nov 7th through the 19th, I may have a shot at this biggest buck thing. Actually Ive gotten enough nice deer. I'm pretty satisfied I hope some kid or guy- girl (want to be politicaly correct) who has never gotten a real big one gets a crack at it. boy that hurt[:0]

    Buckey, I'm going on hunting trip the 7th-13th in southern IL. It should start on the 5th, but I've got a split-tail commitment interfering with my white-tail obligation that weekend. [}:)]Freakin' wedding!!! But, I'll hunt up to the time I have to go to the wedding, then take it easy at the reception, and hopefully be on the road very early Sunday morning to go to my favorite spot in this whole damned world.

    Ben

    P.S. Please don't hold it against me. This is the only week of the year you'll hear me complain about a split-tail commitment.
