I went out this afternoon and checked a few cams. Had a couple decent bucks at one spot but nothing I’d want to use my last buck tag on. Ended up sitting on the edge of a thicket and never saw anything. Hunting at the house tomorrow morning and then I’m not sure where the afternoon will take me.

Skunked this afternoon. 2 of the last 3 nights my target buck on our home property has shown up on the cell cam during shooting hours. I’ll be waiting on him tomorrow evening.

Saw a few does last night but the buck never showed. Had a pretty nice 8 show up at my lease so I’ll be out there after him as soon as I get the right wind.
I submitted the team name to Cody a few days ago so he should be updating the thread soon.
Good luck to everybody out hunting! I’ve got a few days of work to get out of the way and then I’ll be right back out there after them.

Finally got on some deer in PA on Saturday. Was nice to see some . Had a chip shot on a doe and let her walk though right before dark. Just wasnt feeling like dragging her out from the far corner of my old mans farm. Once the corn comes down, i can drive right up too them there . This getting older thing is a real issue LOL

This getting older thing is a real issue LOL I sold my side by side last year to go towards buying land next to my house and I’m realizing now how nice having a ride to get around on my lease was! I bought a sled though to get the deer out/move stands etc and that’s helped out a bunch.

99.9 % of the deer I shoot I take out on my deer cart, while it’s tough, it doesn’t bother me in the least. That said, I was sitting there Saturday night thinking, if I shoot one here I have to drag it up the steep hill, across the top, back down to the creek bottom, up hill to the electric tower, then more up hill to get to my truck so I don’t knock down any corn. Or............. I can wait until the corn is down, then shoot one and drive right up to it lol. I hardly ever have that option, so I took it

Well my high hopes of killing one of the good bucks I have on cam at the house have been erased. I’ve got a pipeline on the property that I plant my food plots in. Cell cam started blowing up this morning with pics of trucks and big equipment headed down the logging road towards the pipeline. Guess where all the digging and work is taking place. Middle of my foodplot. Just hoping whatever they are doing gets done soon so I can try to get a bit more seed in the ground before it’s too late.

I’m gonna try and get out in the morning for a bit before hurricane Delta gets here. Been covered up with work lately and struggling to get out in the woods. Trying to get work caught up so in a couple weeks, when the hunting gets good, I’ll be able to get out...

Good luck if you get out in the AM.
I’ve been in the woods but only been seeing does and small bucks. The bigger bucks I’ve had on cam are all in the middle of the night right now. I think the combo of the hotter temps plus the full moon has really slowed things down. I’ll be in the woods a bunch over the next month. Hopefully I’ll get an upgrade.

That’s really shitty David! Their timing couldn’t be much worse!! Not much action going on here either. I’ve let some walk but haven’t laid eyes on a shooter yet. Not in MD or PA. Been seeing some on cam behind my house (pa) that I’ll shoot but the pics are all at night. Starting this weekend I’ll finally be getting some serious time in the stand for the next 2 months!!
