Well, the weather has not changed too much, and the acorns are still falling. However the deer have decided the rut is almost here, so they better go ahead and move.

We have four hunters up this weekend, and most saw deer last night. One even saw a probable shooter, but could not get a shot at him down in the bay. I also checked in on the Webb Center hunters this morning, and they had one 15 inch wide 7 point on the truck and were going to look for another one they could not find.

I am still crushed over losing my buck Thursday night, but it happens. And while I would like to think that I missed, I saw my bullet hit him, so I am sure we will find him once the buzzards get on him. And just so you have an idea of what I shot and why I am so upset, the fat 7 point in the first picture was one of the deer I passed up while waiting on the one I did shoot!

The other couple of bucks were just some nice ones that showed up on the camera at the Big Oak and the Back of the Pasture. I also thought everyone would enjoy seeing the two bucks fighting over the corn as well as the coyote stopping by for a bite.

I will have more updates later when I come out of the woods tonight – hopefully with a nice kill shot of something one of us knocked down…
