2009 highlights...November

We saw the first signs of scrapes on Oct 30th. I cut the corn field on Nov 4th. Deer moved in right away and started using. I saw several smaller bucks and a wide 5 or 6 pointer chasing does on Nov 6th in the cut field .On the 6th of November Dathan saw 3 bucks chasing on the 4 point stand. He elected not to shoot any of the bucks, nothing we consider shooters. I saw a nice shooter on the stand behind the water tank, it happened fast and I could not get a shot.

Even though muzzle loader season is in now we made the decision this year we were going archery only now and in the future. We have seen good improvement with better bucks since we have started passing on smaller bucks.

Bucks have really started working the scrapes now, we got trail cam pics of 4 or 5 different shooters the week of Nov 12th.
