What did the tape measure say on that dude?

He grossed 150 on the dot. He has a couple of small stickers that added up to get him there.

24 hours later the gut pile is still there with bucks and does visiting the feeder all day.

The gut pile is gone overnight. The grass in the background is like a swamp that holds water all the time so it's always foggy at night. Couldn't see what took it away unfortunately.

This year I was drawn for MCAAP. On day one I returned to my stand after lunch at the truck. I was located on the downwind side of an hourglass shaped timber funnel at fields edge. As luck would have it, nature called about 30 minutes into the afternoon sit. The options were downwind in the timber (most common choice, for concealment) and the other was crosswind in the field. I expected the deer to travel the cover and opted for the field. There was one miniscule patch of tall grass about 60-70 yds from my stand in the field. This location would act as my latrine. I entered this roughly 10 acre field on a mission. If the hunter I saw that morning was still on the opposite side of the field (about 250yds away), he would be privi to a common but not often witnessed cosmic event, the Midday Flashmoon. Upon completion and as I rose from position, I felt compelled to raise my hand in the air with a thumbs up. This was for any camo clad viewers that had witnessed this stellar event would know I was OK and they should be too. I returned to my stand and napped till 4pm (cradled in a climber). A half hour before dark a nice buck walking the fields edge was headed straight to me. Arrow nocked and ready, I watched as he turned toward my make shift latrine. He went and grazed within a few feet of last night's dinner and never flinched. I know a lot of people think their stuff don't stink, but what does this say about mine?

Awesome freeking story! Got a good laugh out of that one!

What is everyone seeing on cameras or from the stand? We had 2 shooters on camera periodically up to the weekend of rifle season opener but they have disappeared. Only 80 acres so they could easily be in someone’s freezer.

Lately it’s just been the same 3-4 does at the feeders in the morning and afternoons and 1 little spike. Haven’t seen any bucks at all at our feeders in central Oklahoma.

What are you guys seeing in the first week of December?

Looks like round one is over at our place. Bucks are back to a normal feed pattern
