bachelor group of 5 bucks this weekend

[2BHNTN]

I had a couple stands I had to get up prior to the 15th thats just around the corner btw. I got up there around midnite and parked my truck on top of a ridge that gives me a good view and took a snooze waiting for the sun to come up. I woke up around 07:00am rubbing the sleep out of my eyes, and looked across to the opposing ridge. Much to my delight was 5 deer, and couple of em look like they might be good bucks. So I quickly grabbed my bino's and steadied up on them. I be danged, they were all bucks. Three of which were good shooters, and I mean the smaller of the three being approx low 140's, and the biggest being a giant, approximately high 150 low 160's. Wide and Tall. There was two smallish bucks with them as well. They were not much more than 75 yard from where I was planning on hanging a stand. I have high hopes for this season. That's the stuff that keeps me going.

Good grief. This place is 3 hours away from where I live. September 15th is right around the corner. Did I not use proper english, gramma errors, etc ?

MoCraig, your wrong. re read, he was saying that the 15th was just around the corner.

then the next line reads.

Thanks passthru, glad to see you posting. A guy tries to make a serious post and share his happiness in the discovery of what could be a promising season and he gets chit on. Never ceases to amaze me.

Im thinking that 5 bucks, three of them possibly being in the 140" or better range would be enough to get anyone excited, It sounds like a good area you have!!

Passthru,

This will be my second year hunting it. Place is near new boston in linn co. Passed on many bucks last year, some smallish, a couple in the low 130's would be my guess. I had been seeing one really nice in that I was holding out for. This is also a county that was using the 3 point on one side rule. Maybe it's starting to pay off already. In any event, I am dang excited about the upcoming season.

Craig,

Perhaps 2B will be willing to tell you what lesson you learned from that mistake.

Don't forget to ask about tips on when and what to delete from the Musky forum. He's a smart one you know, real level headed.

I have a feeling that any post you dumbass's post on will end up in the lodge. You boys are doing real good on what JimDog already laid down as the law. That is your lesson for moment. Yep, you boys are the smart ones.... no doubt about it.

Watch that potty mouth 2b, this aint the lodge!

I have never in my life seen a buck that has had his velvet shed in early August. I guess it could be the drought, but I have never seen it ever. Interesting.

[Great White Hunter]

I saw a small one the other day with his velvet off already.

If SF had an ounce of wit in his veins, he could counter that with a fairly decent comeback. By that, I mean a SF comeback.

Where does it say they were no longer in velvet? I can't find it.
