Title: Opening Day in Kansas
Post by: jamesh76 on September 19, 2011, 09:09:00 AM
Just wanted to say good luck to all that get out this week.  Nice and foggy this morning. I wish I did not have to work.

I will without a doubt be sitting in the woods tonight with my Montana and POC arrows with magnus 1's.

Good Luck all.

Good luck James! I know a certain Trapper will be doing the same. If there is an east wind, I know a particular buck that will be in trouble! Good luck out there  :thumbsup:

Yeah......East wind benefits me also in a few stands. However it will be a N NW wind  5 mph or less. from 6pm to dark here where Trapper and I live. Id like to see Tracy post some pics up or a kill tonight.

Yeah, for most of my stands a North wind is the hardest to hunt in the Evening. But the best for Mornings. I hope Terry gets a chance at that buck this year. He sure is nice.

When was it you were coming to KS again? The 1st week of Nov?

The wind was terrible NNW so I had to set up a ceder ground blind and planned on just watching tonight and not taking a chance on spooking them.

About 6:30pm I woke up from a unplanned short nap  :knothead:    :D  and noticed the wind had done a 180 so I jumped up and made my move to the planned blind just in time. Had 4 bucks at 7:20 including the two I am after,This buck with his dryed velvet is very impressive and cool looking.

They were 100yds out slowly coming my way but never made it there before I ran out of light. Great night!

Good luck guys  :thumbsup:  Shoot strait  :archer2:

Nice buck Tracy! You always have great deer over there and large amounts too. I see few, but not with the frequency you do. Plenty of smaller bucks and does though.

I sat last night and had two does pop out about 6:30 headed straight for me from about 100 yds out. Seeing my freezer nearly empty meant I was ready to bend my bow. Well, they popped back into the woods at about 60 yds and that was the last I saw of them. Right about the time I was ready to climb down two smallish bucks walked in at 25 yds and I was confined to my tree until they moved off thirty or so minutes later. Great to be back at it!
