2017 Panhandle Hunting Thread (5th Annual!)

[Mudslinger]

Wind did not lay until late and only saw 1 hog a young 7 and a cow horn spike. Back at it in the AM.

It should be a good morning.

This morning SUCKS!!!! One little buck is all i have seen. ��

Just checking in to see if you were hunting this am.
Good luck tonight.

Barely made it out last night and never made it to the stand. It was a comedy of frustrating delays and I only got out at about sunset. As luck would have it, I got pinned down by a mid-120s 3 year old dogging a doe en route to the stand. I watched them for the rest of the night.

Not a soul moving this morning. Be safe, y'all.

I really thought with the weather this morning it would have been a great hunt. Nothing but a young 6 showed up

Pinned down all day and wind calmed late, maybe they fed all night.
This afternoon.

Good luck men.

They were moving before daylight this morning. My shift release has hit 3 deer in 2 different vehicles in the last week.

Settled in for an afternoon sit. Hopefully something will move.

Well, I had a great morning near McLean. Bucks are chasing does everywhere. Had a few does and some small bucks come through at first light, they were scared off by some coyotes. Then it went still for an hour. But I knew they were on wheatfields late and would be by at some point. Sure enough has 4 does come in and 5 or six up and comers come and check them. At 9:15 looked out and 70 yards away was target buck grunting and trailing a doe. Got my bow up and knew it would depend on where that doe went if I would get me a shot. After 10 or 15 min she made the perfect move and walked right in front of me at 30 yards, he was 5 yard behind her. Drew bow and 50 yards later I have my best deer to date. 148 in 8 point with 40 in of mass.



Find the does and sit tight.

Wow! What are the bases? 40" mass on a 8pt, that's Saskatchewan mass. Congrats

[Johnny_Dodson]

In a stand scouting for a friend but believe one was 5 7/8 and other 5 6/8
Only his last mass measurement was under 5 and they both were around 4

Great bucks Duzy and Johnny!

My morning finished off sucky too with only a small muley buck seen.

I'm settled into my go-to spot with this south wind. We'll see, but I'm excited just to be on stand. Good luck, gents!
