Impressive!

Almost a year ago we received some flashlights from one of our sponsor’s…..And I have to say WOW!. seriously, I’m not just saying this because they are our sponsor. These flashlights are truly impressive. For the size, these flashlights are super bright. I carry a PD30 in my backpack on every outting. I have other flashlights that have made it in my pack over the years, and compared side by side, there is no comparison. The Fenix flashlights dominate in performance.

I posted this up because of everyone out there looking for ideas on what to get someone they know for Christmas. I would like everyone to visit their website and take a look at them. They have alot of models to choose from, and with the holidays coming up, they would make a great Christmas gift for a hunter in your family.

Arkansas 8

Josh — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 21:09:21 +0000

Shawn was able to seal the deal Sunday November 21 on a Arkansas 8 point. Him and Jason sat overlooking a field with hopes of seeing some cruising bucks. Shawn made a good second shot at about 70 yards after giving the buck a “warning shot” and missing the first shot. Jason was able to capture it all on camera. Should make for some interesting footage.

Kansas 10 point

After 2 years I finally was successful in Kansas. And I would have to say it was worth the wait! I headed out to Kansas on a DIY public land hunt with high hopes. Last year’s tag sandwich had left a bitter taste in my mouth, but I had a positive attitude about this trip. I arrived in camp late Friday night, November 5th. After scouting and hanging stands most of the day on Saturday I was anxiously awaiting climbing in the stand. Sunday proved to be different from last year, as I seen 12 deer and one good buck. The next day things started to seem all to familiar. Over the next few days deer movement was sparse. I was getting pretty frustrated.

On November 10th, the temps started to drop. The temps were going to drop down in the 30s that night and the deer could feel it. I seen a good buck and numerous other deer. The next morning, november 11th, was the day. The bucks were moving good. I saw 4 different border line shooters and this bruiser. He chased a 130ish inch 9pt off as they were in pursuit of a hot doe. The buck gave me a good broadside shot as he was heading back to tend to his doe. I took it and watched him fall within a few yards. With all the excitement I didn’t know how big he was. The bodies on these Kansas deer are huge, making the rack look smaller than they are. Upon walking up on him, I was shocked. A bruiser of a buck, 161 1/4 inches to be exact. I was taken back, I couldn’t belive it. Two years in the making and I had shot my dream buck. He dressed out at 210lbs. I’m looking forward to checking out the footage and reliving it all over again.

Heating up

Josh — Fri, 29 Oct 2010 13:28:42 +0000

…..or should I say cooling down! The temps are starting to drop and the deer activity is picking up. It’s that time of year!!! I get so excited this time of year when a cool front roles in. The deer seem to really get up and on their feet during daylight hours.

Yesterdays highs were in the upper 60′s and the low for last night was forecasted for 33. That’s a big drop from what it has been. Evan and me decided we needed to be in a tree. We felt like the deer would moving good and hopefully we could get on a buck. We headed out to one of our sets that we have hung on some public ground here in Central Arkansas. Not long after settling into the tree we caught our first glimpse of a deer. It was a small spike or fork horn. It didn’t stop there, we continued to see bucks coming in and hitting a scrape and working over some rubs. While watching one of the smaller bucks I caught glimpse of what I thought was a good shooter. I alerted Evan, and we waited for a good shot and view with the camera. Evan made a good 30 yard shot and the buck didn’t run 60-70 yards. But it just so happened to be in a thicket. The buck had a little ground shrinkage and turned out to only be a 5 point. Never the less, it was a great hunt, and a good buck for public land here in Arkansas. After some celebrating the work began. Congrats Evan!

Mid October

Josh — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 19:16:25 +0000

Things are usually slow this time of year. Big bucks seem to be moving mostly at night. I think mainly due to the warm weather and that they know they need to stock up on groceries and conserve energy for the rut. Hopefully we will get some cooler weather in the coming weeks and the big buck activity will start to pick up during daylight hours.

Jason and Shawn was able to make due during the “October lull” by harvesting a couple of does on camera. They each took a doe this past weekend with their bows.

Things should really start to pick up in the next couple of weeks. We all have some out of state trips planned and also look forward to chasing around the bucks here in our home state. I’ve attached a few bucks that have shown up recently on trail cam. It’s only a matter of time before they get stupid and start running around senseless.
