I had one come supervise some wasp killing.


And it's sideways, wasp had the upper hand.

Johnny, what a classic pic right there!! Ol' GarGuy has a way with words for sure, but he's pretty dang good with framin' a pic too!!

They do grow up fast! We've "watched" Colton grow up here on the GS, and it's been fun so far too! A son to be very proud of. What a hunter! ...now if you could just teach him how to play baseball!!

This deer just makes all the other BBD stories on here kinda feel "meh" right now.

Starting to see signs of rut in Hopkins county. I saw pictures yesterday of two smaller bucks chasing a doe.

Blanked all weekend again here in Anderson county. Not a picture of a deer since the 18th at corn and only a few pictures on our cams on trails. I don't know where all the deer went. Scrapes and rubs all over but no deer in sight.

Move your cameras to scrapes and turn them on video

No kidding! I saw twelve deer Sunday evening. I could see a feeder from where I was hunting and not one deer went there. Two mature bucks too.

Yeap. The legal bucks spotted this past weekend skirted feeders. Pop watched "a good one" watch does under a feeder and never got close enough. He did it Saturday and Sunday morning

I've got a camera over a scrape that popped up. Had 4 different bucks visit it in the last week. They're all young but that's ok. It's about to get real prime.

I got the same. Only 1 lease legal deer (4.5) working the scrape but it's his area so I figured he would be a constant there. Around 5 other 3.5 and younger bucks visiting and even fighting at that scrape. The old dominant buck in my area hasn't hit any of the scrapes I've had cams at yet. Should be any day.

It's been one of the slowest seasons so far for me out of the 13 years I've been hunting in Houston County. I'm still only getting night pics of bucks hitting my sweet feed at the protein feeder. The last time I was up there I moved my cameras to scrapes so we'll see what's been happening up there. I'm headed out after church tomorrow night and will be hunting Thursday, Friday and Saturday. I'm abandoning feeders this weekend and I'm going to sit on a travel route in a natural funnel that has been known to be hot this time of year...we'll see

I held a kid off a 5 or 6 year old 8pt that would have been a dream deer for him. We had a stud chasing a doe though...just never stopped.
