Didn't get out tonight but saw lots of movement this weekend. Had a couple 8 pointers pushing each other around Saturday morning, lots of other deer standing around watching the action. Took a doe once the party had broken up and everyone else had gone home. It was nice of her to run down the ditch for me. Made for a shorter drag and got her good distance from my stand. I don't think it messed my stand up either.
I didn't get out Saturday night. A little too late to go by the time I got the doe taken care of. Ran a couple errands instead and took a short cut down a gravel road. Large 8 point, maybe 130, was crossing a picked bean field at 6:00pm. Grab the binoc and flip a U to take a closer took... By the time I got turned around and 100 yards back down the road the buck was standing in the middle of the road.
Seeing a good buck in the open an hour before dark tells you things are starting to happen. Time to start putting some hours in the stand.
Good Luck!!
