Can you tag a buck with an unfilled either sex tag from early archery, since its tadionally an "antlerless only" season? Assuuming yes since it lists the dates to use it right on the tag with no extra notes regarding late season....

Went to my stand yesterday afternoon and to my dissapointment I found one of the 2 shooters ive been watching this season dead and coyotes got to his back half...not sure exactly what the cause no wounds I caoild see n looked healthy all season..maybe combo of exhausttion from rut n extreme...

Thanks for the input I was starting to think the same this year after having severeal bucks catch wind of something they didnt like before ever getting in range. I went crazy to be scent free and have had a couple deer hang out right below the stand or right around me so I didnt think it was me...

Sat from 1-530 today and didn't see or hear any movement besides squirrels, even the fields and pastures (that are usually full of deer at this time) were empty on the way home. Any activity on trail cams is all at night still and very little

Ive been out everyday for the last 3 days and had hs buck and doe estrus out and a drag line, with no intrest to the deer. I even had a buck walk right by the estrus drag I had hanging on a scrape. Tonight I tried hs 2 hot does on a drag but the only activity was the opposite direction....anyone...

Brought a couple in rattling so far, they were both very slow n caution tho, one was at last light tonight he made from about 70 yds to 40 in an hour by then it was to dark to see my pins, I waited another 30 min to make sure was gone instead he was posted up 25 yds behind my stand by the buck...

I sat from 2 - 530 only deer I saw was a big 8 100+ yds out while rattling pretty sure he caught my scent when the winds shifted, on tge drive home though fields were full of deer almost hit 2 bucks....i took 6th - 12th off work so far everyday has been windy with hardly any movement till night

Went out and did some scouting/stalking today with the wind, jumped an 8 pt n doe bedded down, other than that didnt see any other movementr

Ive been out rattling the last 2 days and only brought a button buck in yesterday morning. Im going out tonight sitting on a hillside oak/pine transition, with the little rattling success im wondering if a buck or doe decoy would work better, every buck ive seen had his nose to the ground

Ive seen one 3 out the 4 mornings Ive sat, I cant get an answer on if I can legally shoot it while bowhunting though, or if I need to purchase a fur bearers Any answers?

Thanks, if you can see in the pics theres a tree to the back left im think about hanging a stand on. The bedding area is a v shape of tall grass on the edge of timber to the left of the cam. Im pulling cards friday night, I guess depending on what hours im seeing most activity will be a big...

Anyone had any success taking mature bucks while bow hunting scrapes? I caught a vid of this buck the night after this scrape was made he also tore up a 6" dia locust tree by it. Its right by some tall grass the does a bedding in.I just dont know if I should move my stand to this site or not to...

Ive been readin a lot on these transplant trees for mock rubs, they seem to get great results. I want to try it but where I hunt is a valley of oaks with open knee high prairie grass between hillsides. Thinking about giving a try near the timber edge off a heavy trail by some doe bedding, any...
