it's gettin real close in my neck of the woods. Saw 3 bucks this am and they were all separate, unlike last week when they hung together. I know usually it is a little later in So. Ill so buckey might just catch the rut there. On the other hand if it holds off til 19th, i'll catch it when I go south.

    yes it has been buckey which to me means that the first cold snap is going to invigorate the crap out of them. It should be a very good week to be out.

    Another way you know the rut is close is to look at how you guys were all over answering gagirl's questions.[}:)][}:)] I could almost see the swollen necks and sparing going on through my computer screen!![:D][:D]

    taco- We generally go to "The Frosty Mug" for bugers and beers when we get stuff unpacked and ready for the morning. We probably won't make it down til around 6:30 or so on the 19th. We should be back in mouse town by 7-7:30. I'll post something as it gets closer so we can make a plan for the barley sodas.

    dang, here I am just cruising through post reading and learning then BAM I get slammed. Me pull pranks? Come on now......though last year a friend at work somehow got signed up with his e-mail address to receive porn at work, gay porn that is. Still have no clue what happened there, he was pretty embarressed when he had to ask the IT group guys to help him fix it though. [^]

    The weekend of the 8th, or the weekend of the fifteenth will be the weekend you better be in the woods. I am leaning towards the 15th, but I aint sure-but I do know it will be one of those weekends. And you can take that to the bank!!!

    its getting close in my neck of the woods too. I was out cutting some wood in ahedge row and right where i cut the other day there is a scrap and a rub. with the smell of chainsaw gas and my scent all around they still made a scrape go figure


    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.

    My buddy who owns the farm I've been hunting told me this evening that they saw the "monster" last evening crossing the road to tend to two does. The colder weather is a day away...now if I can beat this damn virus that has a grip on me. No use climbing a tree only to alert the deer to my presence with plenty of nose blowing and coughing. Woe is me...[:(]

    I think I'm getting older or my a$% has less padding this year. After 3 or 4 hours I got aches that I don't recall having in past seasons.
    Oh how I wish I could be a squirrel, I bet they see plenty of big bucks, least more than I do. [:(!][:D]

    According to my source in S. Illinois the Deer/car accidents have increased significantly. You know what that means! [:0]
