I am so ready to get out in the morning, waiting for first late hopefully this crazy weather doesn't mess up things. Good Luck to all the hunters out there.
Thanks Honey! Good luck to you too! But I still hope my luck's better.........
Yeah, I am pretty pumped too! Got some nice pics of some bucks from a few weeks ago...just hoping they aren't shy!
Where I am hunting...the wildlife department is reporting the slowest area to begin rutting. With the wind out of the south, I am having to use a different stand as well. We'll see.... about 10 hours and I'll be headed to the stand!
Can't wait!
Good luck everyone!

My husband was checking cameras tonight and saw a big buck Im so ready!
My husband was checking our cameras and he saw a big buck either big 8 or a 10. I cant wait.
I was out this evening at Lake Creek on edge of a shelter belt by an alfalfa field and saw several bucks 600 or 700 yards to my NW on the edge of another tree line. Watched a big one with the binocs for a time and he was at least a 10 and stood head above the other. As I was starting to walk back to the house seven doe came to the alfalfa field about 150 yards from me and paid no attention to me as I walked away. Four of the does were nice and big. Hope they return in the AM
I have a little doe group Im hoping to see tomorrow too. Really worried though, from observation, the ones on the property Im hunting seem to bed down when its windy. Im hopin they are too hungry to do that tomorrow.
My buddy and I sighted in our rifles this afternoon, and drove to his hunting areas to do a little glassing. Man, he has some quality bucks.
Looked more like pheasant area to me, but the bucks had the does cut out in there.
We saw four wall hangers in 3 square miles, most of which is planted wheat fields, not deer habitat.

I went out to the range with my sons today to get some last-minute trigger-time in.
I've got one big buck that I'd really like to get, but I just primarily want both of them to get their first deer this year (we should have gotten out last year, but I just didn't have the motivation).
This year, I'm genuinely excited about deer-gun season, so naturally, they are too.
Going out to the farm tonight to spend the night and waking up early and going out to our first spot with one of the boys. After the morning shift, my father-in-law is coming out and we're going to split up (one boy with each of us) and we're staying out all day (in one of a few spots) and coming back to the farm house to spend time (and eat) with the family.
We might be starting a new tradition
