I'm adding 50 points tonite.
Whoop!
There was no wind in the blind and it was pretty comfortable but the sun was so bright I think the deer could see through the mesh. A yearling and a mature doe came in at first but I wanted to see the buck that was following so I held off. He turned out to be maybe a 3yr old with a 5" kicker off his G2. Needs another year, maybe 2. He sure posed nicely though after he pushed the does off.
Right at 5 another pair of does came from the other direction and I didn't bother to check their back trail and just shot the big one.
After they ran off, I looked back and here came a messed up cull buck that I should have waited for. Oh well.
Still a few days left. He would have only scored maybe 80-90"
You guys have been rocking it!
Happy New Year.

. Congrats Kiwi!!!

well looks like I am done for the year guys. My 130ish points is the best I could do. Time to drag out the rifles and kill hogs at night and scout tons of public for next year during the day.
Everyone have a happy and healthy new year. Maybe I will see some of you on a team next fall.

be safe fellas.

Ive been absent but still in it. Deer movement takes a drastic swing this time of year. Finally caught up with some does on camera. Will try and atleast get one doe before this season ends. Good work team.

Sorry I haven't been on for awhile but I got some points with a big ol doe for us this morning. Heart shot and a short track job .Picked up a good peice of property 5 minutes from the house, just like 6 days ago and only a week left of season. I've got one tag left . Took 3 with muzzleloader, a 7 point and 2 doe's,1 with a crossbow and 1 with my compound . It's been a great season .

Nice shot Mt Archer! - no other changes and your 50 points puts us in 2nd place which is pretty darn cool and my highest finish in years :)
I sat NYE at a spot that has been untouched all fall - two does came by in range.
The place where I opted NOT TO HUNT because it had been hard hit, had one of the big shooters right at last light 😢

Nice job mtn archer!

Nobody is catching team 15 but we’ve had a great showing as a team!

New Year’s Eve will end up having been a wrap for me. Never could connect with a big boy this year. Did go out that afternoon and shoot another big doe with a gun to get a little extra meat in the freezer given all the meat issues I’ve had. Season almost over and won’t get out again before it ends but it was a fun season. Hopefully I’ll have better luck with the big ones next fall - in a bit of a drought on them that I need to break out of.

Theres still time in Ohio… late season hunting kind of sucks when your spot isnt the food source. This is the only recent picture ive got of him and i fear its only a one off moment.
