deer movement and kills

[Cody Gruchow]

i think it would be cool to share where your currently seeing deer. in the feilds? in the woods? in the back of your truck? haha also share any success this year. close encounters? what time are you seeing the deer moving. any bucks chasing does?


ill start with the entire weeks movement i have seen.

Thursday Evening Sept 23rd- rain finally broke so i could get in the stand. arrived and it started to drizzle slightly. got in the stand at 3pm. stand is in the middle of the woods on a well traveled trail to the plots, back by the swamp. didnt see anything for awhile then at 6:15pm a big doe came threw at about 18 yards, followed by 3 other does. no bucks

Friday Evening Sept 24th- sat in the same stand as thurday and didnt see any deer, with the blowing wind i think they were laying low.

Saturday Evening Sept 25th- sat in my ladder stand in a pine tree clump, didnt see any deer again, which is unusual for that stand. perfect conditions

Sunday Morning Sept-26- took my climber out to my go to spot on the backside of the property, by the pond. had 4 does walk past me at about 12 yards at 8:01am. no bucks, even though they kept looking over there shoulders at the trail they just came down.

Monday Morning Sept-27th- went back to the same stand as sunday morning, at first light had a deer walk down the path right in front of me but was still a little dark to see what it was. then at 8am on the dot the same 4 does as the following morning come down the trail  same as the day before. then 10 minutes later a spike and basket racked 6 pointer came down the trail to my left, and bullyed the fans away from the small food plot, but neither of the bucks payed any attention to the does.
