With the cool weather, it would be a great morning to do some light rattling with a set of antlers. Nothing loud, just some light tickling of the tines! And then lay them down and be ready! I killed a nice buck with my bow after rattling on a cool morning about 10 years ago. I saw several more bucks after I shot him. They were shooters too! I might have to borrow my dad's Excalibur and go sit in my favorite spot.

Good idea. ive def had several sparring sessions on cameras already. Could not be more excited about this fall weather.

 

[JCDEERMAN]

Just saw that. Wife said "I know where you'll be"

Can't wait

We were at some Oktoberfest thing yesterday drinking a few beers. We were with friends and maybe planning a get together next weekend. I pulled up the forecast and it showed a low of 38. My wife said "well, he'll be hunting, so he's out". then my buddy started laughing and said this is the first time I think I've ever seen you in October. I said, "it's hot out"

Will light sparring get does to come in and investigate? I know a middle school fight got the girls to come a runnin.

 

[JCDEERMAN]

About the only time I "rattle" is the first few weeks of bow season. It's just tickling the horns together, nothing dramatic. I've had quite a few bucks come in - not looking for a fight or anything, just curious to see who it is.

Only the middle school aged ones. The adults roll their eyes & turn away just like women do.

So dissapointed. Been waiting for the cold snap and hunting in this heat. The cold snap moves in right when fall break starts for the kids. Ill be in a lakehouse in georgia spending time with the family and will miss it. Weather never seems to line up with my schedule lol

Very little. As the front moves through this Thursday and Friday, some rain, but not a lot. The following front the next Friday looks like even less rain.

Climate Prediction Center has Western and Middle TN in their "Rapid Onset of Drought" category for October. Don't expect much rain until mid-November.

Unless there is a tropical storm or Hurricane.

Unless there is a tropical storm or Hurricane.

And as of this morning, two of the three models have exactly that for around Friday the 13th. Tropical Storm coming up out of the western Gulf and sliding up towards north GA or southeast TN.

 

[Stalkhunter]

I might Sunday
Morning driving home fro Alabama. On vacation with my wife this week.

 

[BSK]

No for me. Not only do I no longer bow hunt, I'll be Death Marching across the Utah desert this weekend.

 

[killingtime 41]

I'm sure the rain will start as a soon as the quota hunts start in November

Canyonlands, the Needles Section.

Canyonlands, the Needles Section.

Great spot. I stayed in Moab a few years back during a rare snow. Canyonlands was less crowded than Arches and I liked it more. Dead Horse Point was great too
