Same here. Our season opened last Saturday and I went fishing yesterday.:rolleyes: I always get a deer or two with my bow every year, but I just aint got very interested this year yet. Cooler temps and less skeeters might help.:o

Bigby Thats A Nice Rack! I Think I Would Be Cutting A Few Trees To Get Some Better Shooting Lanes. Good Luck Hope You Get Him.

Guess I spent too many years hunting those Cornfed monsters in Illinois. That one still looks like a non-shooter to me.

Then you should have to come down and hunt southern Missouri. They would look just like new borns to you.

BOB YOU SAID THE MAGIC WORD "CORNFED". THE BEST I EVER GOT DOWN AT THE FARM WAS A SMALL 10 POINT WHICH SCORED 119 5/8 AND WEIGHED ONLY 134 POUNDS FIELD DRESSED. KIND OF HARD TO PUT MUCH SIZE ON THEM WHEN THERE IS NO CROPS FOR THEM TO FEED ON. AND YOU SURE KNOW THEY ARE NOT GOING TO GET FAT ON FESCUE OR HICKORY NUTS. AND WE SEEM TO HAVE WAY TOO MANY DOES. THE BIG GUYS ARE VERY FEW AND FAR BETWEEN IF YOU CAN FIND THEM. AND I AM NEVER THAT LUCKY DURING FIREARMS SEASON. BUT THEY ARE THERE IF YOU WANT TO WAIT, WAIT AND WAIT.

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS BUCK TAKEN LESS THAN QUARTER MILE FROM MOM AND DADS FARM. AKA RIGHT OVER THE FENCE ON NEIGHBORS PLACE! NEIGHBORS DAUGHTER INLAW GOT LUCKY!

Trophy Whitetail Missouri Deer

BIGBY I cant tell you how many deer I have shot with that verry look on there face

Our corn is still standing but the neighbors' cornfields are bare now. I hope to get a BIG boy this year! We saw several wall hangers after season was over. :p But I can't manage to draw my bow when he's standing close enough. I get too shook up. Let him go out of sight and I can. LMBO...... I'll wait for the firearms season. I CAN pull the trigger when he's standing there.

Good luck all.

I was shook up last night, first time I hunted this farm. Could of took a shot at his liver or maybe the back of his lungs but I didn't want to wound him so I decided to pass, he never knew I was there. The farmer leases the land out for firearm season so if I get another shot at him I'm taking it. Going back in a couple of hours, trying a different tree.
