The first 9 days of December have been awesome!
I took the doe on the 1st in OKlahoma. Shot her at 15 yards but I couldn't find blood in them pine needles despite making a good shot. Called a friend with her Bavarian Mountain hound puppy and she trailed the doe 750 yards!

Drove to Kansas on the 6th arriving at noon. Got settled into my stand at 2pm. The big bodied 9pt came in just before dark. I shot him at 15 yards and he went down in sight about 60 yards.

Drove south to Oklahoma and shot this beautiful main frame 9pt on the 9th with a split brow and a 3" kicker off the base! Blessed beyond words!

In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

I for sure have the Kansas buck kill on video.
The Oklahoma buck came in twice. I got great footage of him the first time but didn't get a shot until he came back an hour later.  I had the camera running and pointed in his direction but I couldn't see anything in the view finder. Hopefully I got done useable footage  :thumbsup:
Thanks!
