Re:Any Michigan Hunters Here? 01/05/2010 8:08 PM |   | Nice deer Lenny even though it was not the one you were looking for; I passed on a few bucks waiting for the big one that I’ve been hunting for the last two seasons. I finally got the big one to come to an estrus bleat but he didn’t see a doe and would not take another step. He was about 30 yards in heavy brush, so the next 50 minutes we played sweat, neither one of us made a move; he finally decided that either he was hearing things or the doe he heard went towards the food plot. So he went towards the food plot and did show himself at about 70 yards (too far for my bow) and he was really big (about 170s B&C). Maybe next year if he doesn’t die of old age! | THE BUCK STOPS HERE! |

I’m hoping that they will be in peak rut this weekend, our modern gun season opens the 14th. | THE BUCK STOPS HERE! |

All three times I saw at least one buck pushing a doe. I didn’t make it out Sunday due to the warm weather. Still waiting to see the buck I’m after.

Re:Any Michigan Hunters Here? 11/07/2009 7:16 PM |   | Well made it back out today, seen 6 different bucks this morning, 1 shooter, just not close enough, had a 6 point 20 yard in front of me, just too small, on the night hunt, I had a nice shooter 8 point running a doe all around me tonight, just couldn;t get a shot,seen six deer total on the pm hunt, Like I said, the bucks are really starting to push the does, we will have to see how this warm weather affects the rut, I am headed back out tomorrow. |

I can’t think of nothing worse off hand than dogs running through your stand area! Let us know if you get the monster buck (post pics). | THE BUCK STOPS HERE! |

Re:Any Michigan Hunters Here? 11/04/2009 5:13 PM |   | I finally made it out yesterday and got to my tree at 3:30 and no more than climbed up my sticks and there was a 6 point 20 yards in front of me, well pulled my bow up slowly and another 3 point came in, well I let them go and about 5:30 a monster was working his way along the thicket about 45 yards away and I thought for sure that he was gonna close that 15 yards that I needed and the 2 damn dogs from the farm came running and barking through the woods and spooked him and a Doe to the next county. What a bummer, but this was the first time I saw the big boy,I have seen his tracks and his rubs, but all I can say is I will be sitting in my stand all weekend long hoping for a shot at him. |

The bucks are usually in pre-rut by now and the 12th of November usually is about the peak of rut; I don’t think that’s going to be the case this year, looks like the rut will be late this year. | THE BUCK STOPS HERE! |
