God I’m in the same boat, just not getting it done just yet.  A few weeks to go.  Thanks for sharing brotha and congrats!

@John Billings it been a grind. I’ve had the buck I want to kill at 15 yards three times….. in a neighborhood yard lol he had a doe all three times and didn’t even look at me. The one time I had him close in the stand he winded me and snuck out in the thickest stuff in the hunt unit. Keep at it boss!

@Ryan Wolf I had a big ole boy come in early and quietly creep on our pre dawn.  Then a medium sized 4 pointer go around in a circle with no shooting lane and sit and listen to my soft grunts behind trees for 15 mins.

It’s been a long grind of a year on a population management hunt here in MN. Was starting to feel like I was going to get skunked after all the close calls and  all the missed opportunities. I’ve had 3 trophy bucks in range this year with no shot opportunities. Had a doe duck me and get a hair cut. Found a buck someone shot a month ago barely alive, and got in touch with the hunter and got them their deer back. Finally had a deer hold still and take one to the boiler room. Didn’t go 20.
