Deer Huntin

[free_rider20]

Hoe many people on here deer hunt? Last weekend was opening weekend for shotgun. I had to have seen 20 deer that weekend. A lot of does and at least 3 different bucks. All the bucks were really small and/or missing a side. Last night I saw nothin except for 15 turkeys. Tonight I have no clue how many I saw. I know that there were 10 deer within 100 yards at one point, two of which were bucks, a 3 pointer and either a 7 or 8 pointer. I would have shot the larger one if it was later in season but I am gonna be real picky this year. Anyone got any big bucks yet?

[MichaelS693]

last weekend was youth weekend down here i sat by a huge rye grass plot for 7 hours and saw one doe.... the place i was hunting at only allows shot guns thought..... i aimed and shot but missed it was 70 yds away and i was freezin...better luck next time i guess.....this weekend is openeing weekend for us

One of my friends went hunting and his hunting buddy got a 13 pointer.

And my cousins got a doe or two and a 4 pointer.

[crazy canadian]

our riffle season ended last weekend. i didn't have any luck. by buddy shot a nice 9 point, 229lbs though. muzzle loader season starts sat. and you can bet i'll get one then!!

Dad's buddy got a 8 pt, and his buddies friend got a Button buck and a doe. My dad seen a 12 pt. But it was too far away to shoot, some guy claims he shot a 14 pt. but I havent seen no picture yet and he says the buck is at the *****er's maybe maybe not. Ill keep you informed. Hopefully this weekend ill go and spot some with ol' papa

Here is the rest of the story. This is the one that almost got away. We saw him earlier with 8 other deer going west away from us up a draw about a half a mile away, he looked like an Elk compared to the other deer. We were done hunting, just standing around BS'n, rifles in the trucks, when he came over a hill south east of us about 100 yards away. I damn near **** when I saw him. Shot him with a 270 between 80 and 100 yards. My cousin also got a 12 point white tail that day. :macho

[TravEX]

that sounds great,,,,CONGRATS to both of ya,,,later,Travis

[crazy canadian]

nice deer! good luck to everyone else out there who hunts.

[bluebaron]

hunting for me sucked this year i barly ever saw 5 deers, then i had to walk a 1/2 mile in a fricken plowed field then i to go rite back

[crashinmatt]

i hunt a little bit. i know of a couple huge bucks around me. i wont say how big one of them was cuz u guys wont believe me, but i did see it. plus a few smaller ones like 12 to 13 pointers. i havent got out yet this year, but gun season starts this next week. also, where i live, u cant hunt with guns, only bows. they changed it that way, cuz this little town is developing too fast and too many people.

[2K1 300EX]

I've been bow huntin' twice this season, rifle season opens the 22nd. The damn mesquitos are still out so I'm waiting on the 1st frost. Haven't seen **** either just a bunch of tracks. There is a huge doe that I did see last year and it's still around so maybe I'll kill her.

[JustRace]

Opening day was this past Friday. Well from coming in from bow hunting thursday night to friday morning, someone stole my bow stand. Stupid thieves. Good luck to all you other hunters.

[loganB]

Saterday is our opining day and then right after that is the muzzel loader.:)

[Fast-n-Furious]

Our gun season is about half over up here. On saturday i got a button buck and a doe with my 12ga then on monday my dad got a 8pt that weighed 172 he shot that with a .270. Good luck to everyone else:devil

[free_rider20]

I wish we could use rifles, in Indiana all you can use for deer is a shotgun or muzzleloader. I hink it is cause the land is so flat and the bullets would go so much farther and more houses/cars or people would get shot. I keep hopin a large 8 pointer will come. All my friends got big deer already so I am gonna pass up anything that isnt big.

[TRX250X]

Good job to all you guys who have gotten your deer, and good luck to everyone else. I didn't go home from school last weekend to go hunting on opening morning, so I'm really missing out. I'm afraid I'm gonna have to skip riding over thanksgiving break in order to get a deer.

[Zingnut]

This is what I have been after since I had my game cam film developed?? I am expecting to get within range in late Dec. early Jan. after all you gun slinging boys go home.

ooooooohh ya know if that bad came within range of me i'd probably shoot 6 foot above it's head cause i'd be shaking so freakin bad and that's only if i didn't fall out of my stand first "i get so excited when i see a nice purty buck":macho my whole next week will be dedicated to the stand unless i get one early in the week:rolleyes: it's usally the last day

[400exUtah]

Nice deer guys. My friend and I were successful this year out here in the West (Utah-Colorado border). My buddy shot what we call a 4 point mule deer here in Utah. We just count the large tine points. With the double eye guards, I guess the Easterners would call this a 12 point. My friend’s deer was 23 inches wide. My deer wasn’t as wide, but really tall (24 inches tall, 20 inches wide). It was a great hunt, we saw several deer larger than the deer we shot on opening morning, but we chose to wait until later in the hunt just in case we saw the “monster” which we never did. We had a great time though. My friend shot his at about 175 yards with a 7mm mag., Speer 160 grain boat tail. I shot mine at only 60 yards and pulverized it with a 300 ultra mag., Barnes 168 grain X bullet.

Here is my deer:

Sounds like you get a bad case of buck fever. To busy looking at the horns instead of aiming at the deer. :devil :D :D

Good Luck and Be Safe everyone.

[Str8Wicked]

I go deer hunting on a few of our freeways once in a while...

[Str8Wicked]

Freeway Hunting is an expensive sport...

:eek: looks like that durango isn't even the car that hit the deer judging by the front end.

Any of you hunters see Ted Nugent's house on cribs?

Talk about driven down the freeway and having your business horned in on.:D

and you said that is a 4 point:huh

[400exUtah]

Here in the West we only count the points on one side of the horns, or one horn, and we exclude the eyeguards. So, my friend's deer we call a four point and mine would just be a damn tall three point (LOL). However, if you count total points like they do back East, my friend's would be a 12 point (double eye-guards) and mine would be an 8 point. Sounds different, but that's the way it is out here in the West:D

Either way you look at it, it was a fun hunt and we took some nice deer:macho

I saw Ted's Michigan house the other day on cribs. Wow, he can practice shooting his bow in the basement. And all of the different mounts that he had around the home were amazing. I also like his collection of quads he had sitting around to hunt with. I think he said he has like 2000 acres there.

[speedfreaky]

on time i seen a deer on da road and it was just standin dare lookin at mee..funny

[Tommy 17]

i didn't see a buck till the last day of archery... it was a 10 point 35yds away and i pulled back and shot and i had on double coats bc it was raining and cold... i hear WHACK! string hit my coat and i missed it:(

[Ketch]

Hello, I do a lot of hunting all the west but i show you a picture
of last month. I was way north in Quebec.:)

[spliffy]

I Start Hunting Saturday, I cant Wait. Also that Durango With The Deer In The Windsheild , That Is A Real Thing That happened About 6 Miles South Of My Work Probally Like 2 Months Ago Now , The Deer Was Up Above On A Overpass & Got Spooked & The Only Place For Him To Go Was Over The Railing Onto The Highway & Thru The Durangos Window He Went, The Craziest Part Is that The Driver Was Unharmed.

[2K1 300EX]

I have bad f____ing luck....I went hunting this morning, it was 5:00 and I wasn't even in the woods yet(about 20 yds. away) and I hear something take off running couldn't see nothing there are always 2 does that stay together in that particular spot so I guess it was them. Get in the stand at about 5:15 well I waited and waited but didn't see nothing, put my arrown back in the quiver and get ready to leave then I see somethign out the corner of my eye about 10 yards away for the tree I was in. It was a doe and she knew something was there so I sat as still as I could then she walked around on the other side of the tree, I quickly get the arrow out and on my bow but now she is behind me. I waited and she came back around but was about 50 yrds. away and I didn't have a shot b/c it was too many bushes. get out of my stand, left my bow by the tree and walked the woods to look for scrapings or hookings and I jumped a doe that was bedded down in some brush. So tomorow I will start my rifle season 1 day early.

[400exUtah]

Why would you shoot a doe:rolleyes:

You must be really hard up for the meat, are you hungary? Got starving kids to feed? Uncontrollable deer population on your land that you just can't control? Really, what's the point of shooting a doe? Must be hard up for the meat:confused:

we are required to kill does here after we kill our first buck. we have to kill 2 does before we are allowed a second buck. we have way too many deer here.....sometimes over 40 can walk past your stand....all does:eek:

[400exUtah]

Now I understand a little better. We don't have that problem out here in Utah. There just aren't as many deer as there were years ago. We have to protect our does so they will give us more bucks in the future:D

HAPPY HUNTING

That is all I have seen on our land in the past 4 years, except last year my neighbor shot a 9 point on his property and it ran onto ours, other than that not even any buck tracks....nothign but does. Meat is meat to me, you can't eat the antlers:p

we had that same problem on a piece of land. all does...no buck sign....then we did some planting and cutting of trees ....made a lil buck haven as it were:p 2 years ago we took the #2 deer in the state from that land.....but this year ...only one small buck so far;) :D

[TRX250X]

There's so many deer in northern Indiana that are destroying crops that we are allowed 3 antlerless deer in some of the counties, plus our buck, for shotgun season. They want more does taken to try to decrease the numbers a little bit. I also know that the DNR is allowing lottery hunts in some of the state parks because there are so many deer in them destroying all the vegetation.

[400exUtah]

I wish we had that problem here in Utah:D

in Wisconson we have way to many doe's we need to shoot more it is over populated.:)

My dad got a 10pt. yesterday. It goes in the NY state record's, and local newspaper, the rack is huge. It is the one on the left.

[400ex99]

What kind of game camera do you have? seems to take good pics. brand & model #
thanks.

IN KY we have unlimited doe...you can shoot 100 of them if ya want. I've shot many in my day,,I'm more for the meat than anything,,but I also lik big racks too..both women and deer..:D

[400exUtah]

My buddy's friend just got back from a premium entry hunt in Arizona and scored this big old mule deer. This massive old fella's ears were 27 inches wide! The total horn width was 31 inches, but look at the MASS on this big mulley:eek:

You don't see one like this big fella every day:

[free_rider20]

Went huntin again tonight. Saw 9 deer and a coyote, all within 100 yards at once. There were 2 bucks. One was a six pointer, 4 on one side and two on other. The other buck had a full rack(not missin some like smaller one). It never got close enough for me to tell whether it was a shooter or not. The coyote was a nice blonde color, shoulda shot it.

[2K1 300EX]

My friend got a 150 lb. doe this morning with his muzzle loader. And I didn't see nothing:grr but tomorrow rifle season opens:devil
