He’s like the anti-BK. Jay and Nick come to mind.

Some good vittles right there! Nice easy hunt

Nice going! I had a zero this morning until I jumped one driving out, this afternoon, I was covered up. Saw 7-8, at least two hot does, but mostly teenage boys chasing them. Maybe the big boys have all shot themselves out.

Back out again in the AM, then back to BR. Trying to make one more run before the season ends.

You were ahead of me!

After being covered up in deer Monday morning before I left, yesterday was my slowest day all season. Some activity overnight after the front. We’ve had 4 inches of rain this week roads are quite snotty.

Good luck and be safe guys!

Shooting house on our main road looking for chasers

A cull 6 and a big boy 8/9 point are the targets, though Cuz has requested some meat so the cowhorn unicorn might be in trouble if he shows up again. So many mamas still with their babies, one almost looks newborn.

Good luck and be safe guys!

This is in central Mississippi (Leake County). Between Christmas and Thanksgiving is usually our prime, that week was really slow this year, yesterday was bonkers. I had to come back to work a few days before heading back, and a new to the camera 9 pt came and ate corn right where I’d been sitting all morning.

I wish I had as much faith in Blondi as I do the rest of the cabinet (jury still out on Kash).

Gents, it was ON this morning. Does flirting and moving, some serious chasing. Super wide 6 chased a doe across the road, he may only be 2 1/2 years old. Someone will shoot a nice deer a couple of years from now.

3 spikes, from nubs to cow horns, 7-8 does, what appeared to be a 4 pt (on the run) and the 6. A brute showed up at the feeder about 400-500 yards down from me. Could see his lady through the scope when they crossed the road, camera got a shot of my new ISO. First time seeing him. A ton of mass for our parts, 8-10 pts (couldn’t see brow tines, looked like at least one sticker.

Most deer I’ve ever seen in a single sit in 15 years hunting here. Confession. It was cold, and I was hungover, so I didn’t go out until 7:00, and drove my SxS right up next to the stand and got in. First doe showed up while I was lighting Mr. Buddy. Zero cares about that 1000-5 sitting there crackling as it cooled off.

And next weekend will be the end. My cousin is getting older, and 1000 acres is too much to keep up. Anyone got a place with a 6 BR house and 1000 acres I can have to myself? I’ll supply the shooting houses and feeders and the sweat equity.

Yeah, didn’t think so.

I’ve sure had it good.

Never hunted with Jeff, but worked with him professionally for years, and you’ve never met a nicer man. I’d share a blind with him anytime. I was sad when he retired from his day job, but this was always his passion.

Recovered from the mystery illness that sidelined me for nearly a month. Making up for lost time. You need to come make a snapper trip this summer!

For those that have wondered, I was late getting to my blind clearing trees off the road, so I parked my SxS a few hundred feet behind the blind. Had a unicorn spike walk almost under my stand and then within feet of the SxS with zero cares. Had a different (traditional) spike chasing three does a bit later. Since I’m here by myself and felt a cocktail was better than cleaning a deer, he got lucky. Next weekend, not so much. Heard a couple of neighbors popping caps, seems like they are moving again after the shite weather.

Back in the box. Later than I’d planned as I spent a lot of time jumping out to move deadfall blocking the road. Judging from the standing water in so many places and all the downed trees and limbs, this place got rocked by that last storm. Wind has died some, horns only this evening, brown, it’s down tomorrow.
