We?ve got the elk update thread going, may as well run this too. 
Yesterday was my season opener for archery. 


I had two smaller deer come in, but they got the pass!












I?m currently in a tree right now ready for another evening hunt. 








Good luck to anyone deer hunting this year.

 
Just have to get through two work days and my crazy trip kicks off...

KS, NM, OK.... woohooo!
 
Snuck out and checked cameras today and pretended to hunt for about an hour  :-D


Got some good bucks on camera including this guy:

Awesome!!!!!
 
That thing is a freak!


So far in two days in Kansas I?ve seen a spike, 34 does, and 4 bucks.
So far only the little ones have been in range so no arrows flung yet, except for the coyote I missed.... twice ;)

Sounds like fun for the coyote... :grin: :grin:
 
I haven?t missed a sit yet, I just can?t get these deer to come into me. Saw three last night and four today so far.  I think I?m at 54 deer seen now, 8 within bow range, but only 2 of those were something I?d shoot (does) except one had three babies and the other pulled the slip on me.  I?m hoping something changes here soon. I may go chase mule deer here soon and then come back when I?ve got more daylight buck movement.

Well done!!!!!
Congrats on a great buck :upthumb:
 
I had a big fat doe come in a little ago at 19 yards.... It took everything inside my not to shoot because I saw deer moving behind her... it ended up being a smaller doe and this scrub pestering them....

Well, this morning went just like I had planned and I?m absolutely thrilled (don?t mind my face in my pictures... I?m terrible about smiling because my body is always on an emotional dump 😂 )


Around 7:45 this morning this guy came out at 17 yards quartering away.

I?m in the circle at full draw.

I noticed how goofy he was and it just all felt right with how goofy this trip has been! My heart started going wild so I knew he was the one!
I drew, settled, and shot. 
Shot looked good so I decided I?d still wait a little to see if maybe a doe would walk out. 

About 15 minutes later this little guy walked out.

I got down and based off the initial blood trails it seemed as if the shot was good.
