Go get em guys! The clutch went out in my truck so I’ll be wrenching today instead of hunting, yuk! Cameras are showing lots of individual bucks, I’m thinking the bachelor groups around me are starting to break up. It’s gonna get good very soon!
Getting ready to head out. New spot on public, one main trail and some faint intersecting trails through the main trail with big hooves, hopefully those bucks follow the script today.
Good luck today fellas. Have to take a stupid class for work today, should actually be a day off for me. Oh well, overtime money from today will help me pay for something else hunting related Unless the wife says no. I have been spending a ton getting back into deer hunting. Nobody told me all the money I made is really hers when we got married. And all the money she makes is hers too
Checking in from Jackson co. Calling for north wind here, which is the worst wind for my number one spot so out in the swamp this morning. First hunt this year out here theirs just not the sign like in years past. I not alone, must be 100 robins around me. Probably couldn’t hear a herd of deer out here with all the noise their making. Little fog out here. Good luck fellow hunters.
Out in washtenaw. Had a nice 2.5yo 9pt hang around for an hour. Saw a nice wide 10pt for a minute that im guessing is a stud 2.5yo but never got the chance to look him over. Hoping to have a fat doe or Turkey come by. Less than a week until my first out of state trip to missouri!
Back from Alaska now, didn't want to come back. I have never experienced such beauty. I will be back soon.
Still undecided if I am gonna hunt yet tonight. I have a lot of stuff to put away and get a few things done since I have been gone, but they will still be there when I get back from hunting.
Saw some really nice bucks on my way home from Chicago last night. One BIG one standing in a field near Paw Paw @ about 5pm without a worry in the world.

A lone antlerless deer snuck through one of my lanes before I could get a good look at it. Wondering if it was my target button Beauregard, Titan of the Timber???
I've analyzed several pics of this TOAD and I'm convinced that he's past his prime (7+) and the overbight has held him back his entire life from growing the kind of antlers that get you out in the woods.
Might have to cull him this year. You can't say I didn't give him time to get it together.
It’s him!! He’s now at the end of my north lane. There’s no mistaking those glistening nubbins. Got the grunt call on the pre-pubescent setting and going to see if I can draw him in.

Saw a nice buck hit outside of napolean on the way to work. Had a big body and heavy rack. Car was messed up good and 2 other cars had stopped to take pics and the deer
Too many geese flying around for him to hear my calling. But in the past 5 minutes he’s come almost 35 yards closer. Here he is at 118 yards (still a full 38 yards past my max x-gun range. My heart’s beginning to race!
