A big bow buck from guess where? Bedford County
Richard Hurt shot this great eight-pointer on Oct. 6 while hunting in Bedford County.What a great bow buck.
The arrival of this cool front should help the hunting. Things can get quiet for seeing good bucks in mid-October, but it won't be long before they really start moving.
I hope to get out for a quick hunt Saturday morning. I plan to go to one of my best stands, which I haven't yet hunted. The past two years I've killed a deer (doe) with a bow the first time I've hunted it so it's asking a lot to do it three years in a row. But why not?

Percy KutionI feel fortunate that I have never felt that it was incumbent upon me to cause senseless pain, suffering, and death to a wild animal to prove my masculinity. Utterly crepuscular, morbid, morose, and macabre.

BacklashRichard way to go, This season is coming along great with Bucks, Elks, and Mule Deer congratulations one and all.
How about sharing some general information with us please.
What time were you in your stand or ground blind?
What Type of bow you were using, how far was your shot?
What type of broad head used mechanical or fixed blade (Sonic or Muzzy)?
What time of day and weather conditions when you took your shot?
Did you use a scent or did you stake out acorn tree.
By sharing this data the average hunter can calculate the best time to be out and what is typically the best equipment used to make a successful hunt.
