This counts as an anterless deer. Judging by the size of the deer and the antler bases, I think your buck would have rivaled the buck poached down by Cannon Falls.

[Wanderer]

This is the second buck I have heard of that has already dropped his antlers.

Congrats, BTW.

Where's the pic of you in the Jason mask? I like that one better....easier on the eyes....just kidding! Congrats! A late season deer with a bow is quite an accomplishment!

[sticknstring]

Nicely done. Now backtrack him and find those sheds!

I hear you. He probably would have looked like this with his antlers:

wow !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where was that one shot

[LOTWSvirgin]

Was out tonight and boy the deer were moving. I just get to my spot and see five trying to run through the snow they were to far out for a shot watched them for a while till they made there way to the thicket then I start glassing around and find 5 bedded 150+ yards to the east of me about 4:30 they get up and go into the thicket too then seen nothing for no more then 5 minutes then the flood gates opened they came out of the thicket one right after another but to far away after they all walked doen the line to the little corn field where my buddy was I snuck across the open to the fenceline where they had walked while doing that more came out of the thicket I finally make it to the fenceline where they all had already walked look to my right and there are two more while watching them one comes back from the field let that one walk by at 30yds figureing the other ones will be closer they start moveing on at about 20yrds and another comes back from the field and picks me out right a way I think to myself I messed up on not takeing the 30yrd shot when a real nice buck comes walking in and starts browsing at 20 I get drawn on his and wait for the right moment and then let it fly right over his back I know I should of made the shot count and have countless times before I am still looking at tag soup for now

My buddy had lots of luck tonight to but got no shot off cause there was to many deer around him he said he was hunting the corn field this being his first full bow season he was excited as can be thats what it is about though right

[sticknstring]

Sounds like you had a blast. Get back out there, after all, it's your birthday! Have a good one.

Finally got my doe last night. Went out and decided to move my ground blind quick over a big trail that appeared over night. Had a group of five come out and I took the first doe that gave me a shot. Not a huge doe she dressed out at a little over 100 pounds. Hopefully they have a good winter this year with all the corn still standing and bring the numbers up a little bit. Now I gotta switch my attention to getting rid of some coyotes.

[DonBo]

Good job! Late season deer are never easy (as many here are finding out).

[so haaad]

Congrats! And with only three days to spare.

Last chance deer. Started out Sunday morning for last effort to get some meat. Had no luck on Sunday. Monday me and my brother needed to see where the deer were hiding or bedding in the day. Did a little deer drive to see if we could get them moving. On the way to the end of a wood row where the drive was going to start my brother spotted a nice doe bedded 30 yds of the driveway. Couldn't get a shoot at her. He tried to push her my way. No such luck. But he did manage to come up on 7 fresh deer beds. We know had an idea where they are. Moved a stand for the following morning. Still no luck. Tuesday tried another drive to see what we can push around Jumped up 11 Deer in all Tuesday morning. Still no luck coming my way. It was nice to see the wind switch From a NW to a S gave us a chance to sit in other stands we have been wanting to try. At about 4:45 I had three doe come out of a swamp heading for corn. I was still 200 yards in the wood from the field. Never gave me a chance to shoot. Right a 5:00PM another doe came out and gave me a very little time to get of a shoot. Rushed the shoot clean miss right over her back at 35yds. I was happy to have had the shoot and finally see some deer. Disappointed in my miss. It was my first time seeing deer out of my Double Bull Blind, she had no idea I was sitting at the top of this little hill. Can't get out to day but plane on sitting as much as possible on Thursday. Possible do another drive. Good luck to all.

Went out yesterday for the evening hunt. Never saw a thing. No fresh tacks where I was since the last big snowfall. I did here something though..... I think it was the Fat Lady clearing her throat for tomorrow. My seaon is over. Deer Tag Soup. I guess I never should have passed up the 4 does and 8 point buck I saw at 10 yards on opening day. Thats hunting. Can't wait till next year to do it all over again.

[vister]

tag soup is delicious when this years bucks are bigger next year!

[#fishhunt#]

With no deer this year I guess I will have to eat all of the ducks and pheasants I shot this year instead of deer. Huh? Yeah right. I guess I can finally defrost the deepfreeze this winter. Oh well, I heard Rainbow has porterhouse on sale for 4.99/lbs.

[Archerysniper]

Vister I have to agree with you one that.

[LOTWSvirgin]

I was looking for a old thread and came across this one looks like we skipped last year or maybe I missed it but with Bow season starting this weekend lets bring it back to the top

[Archerysniper]

We had one last year But we can start a new one for 2011.
