Great buck, congrats!

Nice one!

Cameras bring A LOT of attention to really big deer. Enough that after this year, I wished they no longer existed. They have been very helpful in dealing with trespassers though. Some people will not quit until you catch them.

Nobody here hasn’t experienced the same, unfortunately it happens. It’s good you care about making ethical shots. A few mistakes I’ve made 1.) not shooting through both lungs 2.) shooting too light of arrows 3.) shooting more draw weight than necessary 4.) not trimming every limb in my shooting...

Congrats!

Great buck, congrats!

There seemed to be more movement in October than I expected and I can’t remember things being this slow around Nov 9, ever. I wonder if the full moon and the warm weather sticking around didn’t have some effect? It’s also surprising how long it’s been cold now too. A strange year I think. There...

Congrats, nice buck!

All day sits suck the life out of me lol. I usually hunt morning, take a break and hunt afternoon/evening. When the monsters are out I’ll sit all day if I can. I grunted in a 170” several years ago, only to miss him. I almost always see big deer around 7:30AM and then again around mid morning...

Had a 155-160” 4.5 10 pt. walk within 10 yards this morning. When a few does showed up later, a nice 3.5 8 pt. starting chasing them and grunting extremely loud for 5-10 minutes. A couple other small bucks cruised by too. Great show, seems a little early. Bummed my phone/video wasn’t accessible...

My strategy YMMV Bling calling - no Rattling - no Scents - no Cans - no Grunt - rarely Snort Wheeze - almost never Funnel - yes Trail to doe food or bed- yes Intersection of multiple trails - yes Grunt - if I catch a shooter chasing a doe and she’s not ready, when the chase is over, I’m calling...

Luke built my 700 SML many years ago. It is insanely accurate. I love not having to clean it and I simply can’t imagine not hunting with it. FWIW, my longest shot is probably 150 yards lol.
