ukcatfan17 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I put out a moultrie programmable feeder this year and set it to feed 1 time a day about 5:45. Been having does on camera a lot and some bucks, but not as consistent and mostly during the night which stinks. I drove my utv out Thursday eve to put out corn in all my other spots and saw a doe at the feeder when I rounded the bend. Hopefully they will keep coming when crossbow starts.

ThrillVille Cardinal51 Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 I don’t know if any of y’all remember, but last season was the first year I took bow hunting seriously. IN the summer, I bought myself a recurve bow and was amped about hunting season. Well, after about 5 or so stone cold misses last season I decided to convince my wife to let me buy a compound bow. I did, and killed a doe the very next sit. Since then, I’ve felt like I’ve had a score to settle. I have a hunting bucket list, and killing a deer with a trad bow is one. Well I just bought a new recurve at 40#. I already feel much more acurate with it. Hopefully I’ll be able to hit what I want this go around!

ThrillVille Cardinal51 Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 Weather has turned better for hunting this weekend. Anybody have any action? I’ll be headed out tomorrow morning to Taylorsville lake. I’d have killed a doe in this spot if I wasn’t an idiot two weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThrillVille Cardinal51 Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 I went out to Taylorsville this morning. Saw 7 deer from my stand, and had a flock of turkeys come in. I didn’t get to put anything on the ground, but it was exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThrillVille Cardinal51 Posted October 7, 2018 Author Share Posted October 7, 2018 I’m liking Taylorsville Lake a lot. Every time I go out I see deer. One of these times I’m going to seal the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NKYknowitall Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 He likes to show up, according to my camera anywhere between 12pm and 6pm then again throughout the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukcatfan17 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Went out Friday afternoon with my 2 sons. We each now have a place to hunt from, either ground blinds or 1 ladder stand. One son had a small doe out by his ladder stand and I eventually came my way and ate corn for awhile. An even smaller deer joined in and both returned a couple more times. I’d say the larger of the 2’s back was no more than 3 feet high...maybe a yearling, so I didn’t shoot. She likes to hang out around my feeder so maybe will lure in a buck later. Also had 6 turkeys show up, then walked out to where my other son was sitting in his blind. All hens. Can’t shoot them since we bait with corn....rats. Also had a squirrel and rabbit show up, then a noisy large screech owl flying around the woods. Saw it in a tree as I walked out...probably a good 18 inches tall and a long wingspan when he flew away after I lit him up with the spotlight. Just looked at trial cam pics and there is a buck with a huge rack I’ve not seen before further up in the hayfield nearer my mother’s house. It was at night so the pic isn’t great, but looked to possibly be a 10 pointer. He makes the 8 pointer look small. Now I wish I had a blind set up in that area....lots of bucks, but only after dark. Need to figure out how to get them out earlier so I can bag one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThrillVille Cardinal51 Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 Anyone out since the weather change? Any action? I’m headed out this evening after work for a couple hours at Taylorsville Lake. I’d have liked to sit where I’ve previously seen deer in the evening there, but the wind is all wrong. I’m kind of winging it tonight with a spot that looks like it could be decent on the map. I’m really looking forward to my sit tomorrow morning. Hopefully the youth season doesn’t botch too much for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThrillVille Cardinal51 Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 FYI if you go out this weekend, remember the orange. There’ll be kids with guns in the woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
