Tonight I gota work late and decided I was going to sneak in and check my camera where I missed my bow buck. Decided I would sit till dark and maybe shoot a doe if possible. At 420 I look up and at 55 yrds is an easy 150s 10pt!! Sick to my stomach that I was not able to pull the trigger! Shaking like a leaf and there was nothing I could do. O yea got this guy on camera there to!

That happened to me the other night too. A beauty 10 pt at 75 yds eating apples. He might have gone 140". Not as wide as my archery buck but had the tine length. All I could do was watch him fade into the darkness. On the bright side, I got a call today informing me that the hundreds of acres of corn surrounding one of my spots was being cut. I guess the deer were pouring out of the fields and back into the woods. I was on daddy duty today but this weekend hopefully I can fill a doe tag or two.

I think that all of my deer are happily grazing across the street in the park...

Back in the woods this morning after four days off. The break seems to of done me some good because I was starting to feel burnt out. Ten days left to get it done.

Had a really cool morning hunt yesterday. Caught this old girl settling into a small patch of Goldenrod. After a stalk and a fawn blatt she stood up and gave me a shot. I have been lucky to be able to harvest some nice deer in my time but this girl is one of my favorites. Weight, 135lbs, she had a broken leg that had healed and her teeth were almost totally gone. Guessing 6 1/2- 8 1/2 yrs old. The matriarch is down! As I went to retrieve her I almost stepped on her fawn, she taught many of those little ones well I tip my hat to her life, I give her my respect...

Nice.  I tagged an 8 point last night right at dark.  He was bedded at the bottom of a steep ravine.  Started up the side, probably to feed in a nearby white oak grove.  Not a huge guy but I`m very happy with him.

Sitting on my favorite ridge leading from a swamp to a cut cornfield. Hopefully a mature deer comes through. 3 scrapes right near my stand are active again

I'm from the ground tonight for the first time this season. I carved myself a little ground blind and I am standing guard overlooking a cropless field.

Some summer sausage going in the fridge to cook tomorrow. If anyone wants to try this is turns out really good! And super easy!

Basically you take 3lbs ground.

Maybe mix 1lb beef in. I did a double batch this time 4lbs venison 2lb buffalo!

But seasonings;

3 tbsp of tenderquick. ( I ussusly do like 2 comes a little salty for me with 3)

2tbsp of liquid smoke

1/4 tsp of garlic powder

1/2 tsp of onion powder

I use a lil extra on the powder but it is all personal trial and error.

But mix all ingredients together well. Form into logs and put on cookie sheet. Put in fridge for 24hrs. Then cook in oven 300° for 60 min!

Saw plenty of deer tonite. Didn't drop anything seemed to me all the deer were bedding close to where they are getting their feed bags on and if they sensed any danger would just disappear back to the bedding area.

Nothing in the field but got busted by 2 deer on way out to truck in thick bedding area. Just heard them and saw their tails
