Hey Mike: Big fan of yours.  I love reading about your passion for deer hunting. I thought I would share with you a deer my oldest son, Brandon, 13, shot recently.  The majority of our hunting is done in the Texas Panhandle.  You always say that one of the best times to be out in the field hunting whitetails is November 8th.  Well, that held true in this case as well. The rut had not quite kicked in yet, but this buck was checking some does when we saw him right before dark.  My son made a great shot on the animal at about 200 yards.  I couldn’t have been happier for him.  He has wonderful passion for deer hunting [...]

Today’s cool blog from Eric Barrett, who killed this giant in 2011: Mike: It was October, during archery season, and I had been hearing about a giant deer that a guy had been seeing as he hunted the adjoining farm. He had several trail cam pictures and even a video of the deer in velvet feeding in a green soybean field. I had heard that the deer had around a 30-inch spread, so I was intrigued. I couldn’t even imagine how many gallons of gas I burned and how many hours I spent looking around, just trying to lay eyes on the deer. After all that, I had nothing. No trail cam pictures, no sightings, nothing. Frustrated, I kind of blew it [...]

Hey Mike: Just wanted to share a picture of the buck I shot Saturday morning Nov. 1st, 8:00am. It was 26 degrees and frosty out. I could hear him coming from over a hundred yards away in the crunchy leaves. Almost no wind. He's my best bow kill to date. He was on the prowl looking for does. Shot him at 25 yards, double lung with a Thunderhead Razor. Only went maybe 60 yards and piled up. Thanks Mike and keep up the good work.--Scott Geurink "aka Scott from MI" Love posting these BIG DEER blogger bucks, send me yours.
