Didn't get out this AM,head and chest cold!! Coughing too much!! :banghead:   My wonderful wife went last nite and got a bunch of cold meds and cough drops,so I should be back with em tonite!

Clay I live near Linneus,30 miles E and 50 S of where you'll be. The bucks are startin to move in the daytime,saw 2 little ones this AM at 9:30 in a beanfield.A youth hunter shot an 11 pt.(rifle) on the farm I'm huntin,said they rattled him in. Nice deer,but not one of the big ones.........

Brad,ya been up this way lately? I'm glad it didn't wreck the truck too,you've seen my other trucks!!LOL

Cool!!  I was on public land in No. Mo tonight, and saw 3 bucks and 10 does.  The bucks are moving mid day.  Walking in I came 40yrds from a 140 class buck.  Got an arrow nocked and got 1/4 drawn and he split.

Yesterday was a bust,beautiful frosty morn and NO deer sighted!! Last nite between coughing I saw 2 does,45 yds and headed somewhere,also heard the woodcutters,maybe the does were puttin distance on them......

This morn I felt crappy and was really coughing,so I drove around the section,saw 6 does total,not so good for around here!!


Tonite I took a big knit sock to cough into and saw an 8pt at 40 yds, he wasn't interested in my grunting.Had a fawn come by at 10 yds,drew on her,but wasn't interested in shooting. Saw a doe and another fawn out of range,a coon and heard a pileated woodpecker. Sorry,no pics,will try to do better......

Quick update...
Its been tough this week! Remind me next year to pay attention to the full moon phase when plannin vacation!

On the up side,saw 3 bucks today,1 at 2:00,a spike from 5:00 to dark,and a bigger one when it was too dark for me to pick a spot(after hours too). The bigger one was following a doe at about 8 yds,grunting every step.Bro won the coin toss so he's gonna be waitin there in the AM to see what she drags back to the beddin area!
I'll be in the stand we call The Power Pole,a limbless,ramrod strait cottonwood.We had to cut some pinoak trees and tie them up there with the stand!!LOL  Good trees ain't never in the right spot!!

GOOD LUCK ALL!!  :bigsmyl:

Well,Bro passed a 120-130  8pt from that stand. I saw 9 does and fawns yesterday AM and a couple lil bucks and a fawn that walked under my stand along with a doe with twins at 40 yds last nite.

This AM I saw a lone fawn and 3 does and Bro saw a bunch of deer but no bigguns ar shootable does!

Tonite we saw the regular few small bucks and a couple fawns.I've seen a truckload of bucks like thisun at close range,wonder when the bigguns will come out to play? Thats bout 8 yds.......

Great pictures and story. I know how it is to get the cold/flew when you take off to hunt, it sucks.
