Hey Guys, i have been slammed since arriving back from Solana and honestly there were so many events that happened to other folks I have been enjoying sitting back and watching this unfold.  

Here are a few more pics from the first day as we prepared for our first hunts.  
                                       

Lots of thought in these conversations.

Love that bayonet in Skyler's boot!    :p  

That boy has more knives than an old time hardware store and he got himself a brand new one on this trip   ;)

My First Nights Stand and First Morning were in the same stand.  

 

Both in the evening and in the morning i saw 4 Does.  The first night they were being pursued by a pretty decent Buck but none of them came closer than 75 to 80 yards.  Now i gotta tell ya.  that buck was darn nice.  From that distance it had me thinking.  But then again i am a bit spoiled from last year.  So i didn't give it another thought.  Until later that night.  

On the next morning the same does came in an feed around the feeder but it was terrible still that morning and i am pretty sure the doe that was at 10 yards heard me blink and they eventually spooked off.  Sure wish i could have seen that buck again.

Second Night, I get a tree on the edge of a ravine and a large field up on a plateau.  Robert tells me there are several bucks who frequent this area.  One in particular is called "Big Red".  All he says is that i will recognize him when he shows up.  
   

A little video of my thoughts right after i get settled in this tree.  Funny thing is that "Big Red" is not even going through my mind when i did this vid.  OK guys, be easy on the critique.  Turn the volume waaaaay up.

As I sat in that stand, i realized that i hadn't put on enough cloths to keep me warm.  Heck it was almost 70 degrees when i crawled into the stand and the temperature was starting to drop.  I figured i might put on an extra layer that i had strategically placed on the tree limb behind me. Wouldn't ya know as i was all contorted  around trying to reach for my shirt, 7 bucks walked in undetected and started to feed all around the feeder.  

I had some special arrows left from last years hunt that i was bound and determined to use them.  This particular arrow was used in last years hunt, this past summer froggin with Skyler and Don in Alabama and on a hog hunt with Larry Surtees in SC.  

"Big Red showed up but never presented a shot.  There was one other shooter, a 5 pointer, two fork horns, two spikes, and a button buck. Still, i am judging bucks compared to the past.  Decided not to take a shot.  And enjoyed the show.

Keep em coming Jack. I keep trying to do self videoed "Jack" interviews and am failing miserably, my videos look like Im on the evening news.

All right been waiting for more.  Keep it coming Jack.  Nice job on the video.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

As said above, keep it coming, Jack!

One of the coolest things about this hunt is the ability to participate in the recover of others game animals.  We had such a great car group.  Being there for the tracking and recovery of Randy's buck was awesome.

Boy, we had some laughs and did some learning about each others home turfs in that truck.

    Poor Ol Sky, probably never heard a word of "Sage" advice us old timers were giving him, he was day dreaming about Sally back home. Or was it Suzy?
