Hey guys,

hope everyone is well and healthy .

The cabin will still be available this year. I talked to the owners and they are ok with using it even with the Covid crap.

The MDC finally raised the NR rates , from $225 to $265 . Been figuring that would come , judging from neighboring states. If you're a youngster  tho the rate is $9.50...  LOL

Deer population is good, have seen some good bucks but few pics of them. It's not quite as easy as when you could put mineral out.  Also a full time job with long driving cuts into my free time for some reason...

Oh there are still 2 hunts available....

Late hunts are as good as early, there is nearly no pressure during gun (me sometimes, and rarely the landowners nephew. He hasn't been here for 5 years) and the deer move in to escape guns.

I took a decent buck last year after all hunts were over on Jan. 2, the bigger one wouldn't cross the little ditch and stayed 30 yards out...

Thanks to all past and future hunters!!

Was going to ask if you had any good pics yet.

What's scaring those bucks Kenny?

They probably figure you're there !!

Between pond and big oak , you killed one right there! 

Midday pics, may be flies bugging them.

May be traffic on gravel too, I had a stand there one year but nobody sat it cause the road was visible about 150 yards away...   So never put it back there again...

Learned elk huntin you don't always have to go to the back side of the area....

Pretty good bucks Kenny, looks good!

Thanks David ! Hope someone takes em home. Local farmers say we have too many . LOL

Some promising bucks...very nice...

Thanks for the pics, cant"t wait for Sept 19th.  May see if I can come up a weekend before to get a better layout of the property if that is okay.

Nice ones Kenny!!

those pictures of running deer remind me of the ones that the conservation used to use on the deer hunting regulations booklet , (al agnew) i think was the artist.

what kind of camera is that?
great pictures.

Just let me know ahead so I can see if cabin owners will be down.
