Finally... success
 

Decided to give up on the spot I've been hunting and try some new state land yesterday afternoon. Guess it was a good decision!:D
I had only scouted the land by computer maps, but after talking to the DNR was told good deer concentration throughout. So off I went.
I got out about 1:00 pm, and slowly worked my way into the area. The area was fairly thick in cover, but lots of sign. I found an area that had several trails crossing, with a few shooting lanes. Long story short, at 4:20 two does came in with a tall spike following. I planned on taking the doe but a shot never materialized, and my mouth was already watering for some of that venison. Ended up taking the buck at just under 30 yards. Took out a lung and he piled up within a hundred yards. The best part was taking my son back to help track it and field dress it.

How is everybody else doing so far?

Waidmannsheil LoneWolf, mighty fine day to be out in the woods!! I won't make it back for Michigan whitetails this year, but I shore do miss it. I've had a good year over here, our buck season is already closed, but I did manage to shoot four bucks, Dom.

Good shooting man! Congratulations! I haven't shot anything personally yet, but the rut looms ahead.;) I've also set up a couple of my brothers on does, so we've got some fresh venison too.

gd

congrats lonewolf

congrats

Good Job and I have had one thing after another this season and nothing in the freezer yet. I ordered a new bow and it is in the Post Office ready for me this AM. Guess I will upgrade from my old Jennings T and see if that helps lol
