Post by: Fred on 10/20/08 - 11:03PM
So who's ready for Deer season? I went scouting last weekend, already confirmed my zero on Iron Sites, just got a new weaver rail and Scope for my Shot gun (useing Slugs) ordered a clibing Stand and will be picking up a new 2 person ladder stand. Nov 1 & 2 is a youth hunt and Nov 15-25 is modern firearms season here in MO. I AM READY!!!

I'm ready; will be hunting with my new 700 Remington XCR Light Tactical chambered in 308; got my boot time in and have a plan all laid out. Should the Great Spirit grant me a bounty...  I'll come back and post some pics of that bounty.

hey sounds good Fred, Have to clean the leaves away from my spot-they make too much noise and wake me up when I roll over.

Get a tree stand ole man river. No noise in the trees and you can see further out. If you do take a shot it is easier to see where the deer goes. But you know all this. I just bought a climber stand on EBay for $94 shipped!!

Good Job on the 5pnt!!  I think you all have the same 4pnt restriction we have.

Yes sir 2 Stands in place, Climber in the garage, "baits" put up, corn thrown around, camera put out. With everything we have put in place SOMETHING should be around there.

Larry you take a look at camera film yet? If not maybe I'll go by today and go pull the card.

That one was on a managed hunt which didn't have a point restriction.  I do hunt southern counties which don't have the limit either.  But, I'm pretty much a meat hunter.  If it's brown, it's down.

You I have tried every way I could think of and the Horns ALWAYS turn out tuff. I'll take a large doe any day over a buck. I've killed my share of bucks already

He's no trophy buck but he'll grace my table and wall nice enough... Shot from 150 yards at high noon, ran about 75yards and dropped... still have to fill my anterless tag, but not sure I'll get to go back out...   Thanks Brandon for helping pull him out of the deep, deep, deep, (did I say deep?) hollow. Couldn't have done it without your help.

Thats a nice deer. Send his friends my way. I have yet to even see one since I have been out

Thanks for the compliments...

I hunted Saturday morning till about till about 10:00am seen several doe early on, had a good shot on 2 but passed cause I was waiting for a buck to come around... but he must have got wind of me that day. Went back out on Monday didn't see nothing in the morning then about noon I got the 8pt in the pic while still hunting. Didn't hunt the rest of the day because by the time we got him out of the hollow, field dressed and to the meat plant I was wore out... I took Tuesday off also so I could fill my antlerless tag and didn't see squat that whole day.. but it was still worth it just to be out in the woods all day.  :P
