Got it done with the .270 this morning in VA. I'll post the pic once Imgur works for me. Decent 5 point.

Here's the buck I shot yesterday...

Found this today, got a big f'in beaver. We'll be hunting that before the weeks over with.

I feel your pain Adam. We've got one that's built a damn on what was a small creek we had to cross to hunt a stand. Now we either have to wear hip waders or try to make it across a log, neither of which I'm too crazy about. I will say the beaver created one heck of a wood duck sanctuary though. The first time we hunted it this year there must have been 30+ of them in there.

Made up for missing into a tree opening morning

nice buck. Hope you dont plan on mounting him. That cut up the neck is a taxidermist nitemare

 

[Skullglide]

Nope, no mount.

phylo, this was #3 on my list. I have two bigger ones that disappeared at the start of firearms. Taken in northern Warren Co.

Ive been battling beavers. Ive had them pull out of traps 4 times. Missed one with my bow. Smoked 3 with the 6x45 and thermal.

They smoked my standing corn plot. I'm getting even though.

Punched 2 tags this moring.

The buck is 140 +/-

Congrats! Nice buck! Glad to see you got the monkey off your back. I lost the 69 acre woods I've been hunting for the last 20 years. Had to hunt my own property. 90' wide by 900' deep. Saw a buck and doe opening day, and a tiny little one bedded down 10 yards in front of me. On Monday the 16th, I took a nice doe that walked through the opening in the fence from the woods adjacent to my property. Less than a minute later, a small 6 point started sniffing and pawing at her. That lasted like 20 minutes. Looked just like the little buck in your second picture. I could have shot him over and over. Only needed one deer though.

Saw one buck today chasing a doe. It was a young buck. Starting to pick up a little more here.

 

[w_ADAM_d88]

#2 today, big ol' doe, by herself but still had milk in her.

 

[roscott]

Couldn’t believe how many bucks I saw out chasing does just on my drive to work this morning! They haven’t all gone nocturnal!

I’m headed back out this weekend, although goose season reopening has kinda shifted my focus.

Are you sure that's not just a REALLY big aggressive buck rub?
