Last day of Aug I went to the woods and I was super lucky and filmed 3 bucks feeding in the bottoms midday. They were roughly 50yards away, I was WAY too close! Lol

Srry about the shaky video, my camera is broke and it was hard to film...

Had a crazy time glassing a swamp tonight. Had 7 bucks come off an island in the cattails including one that was probably a 140” 10 point! All but one buck had shed velvet. They came off the exact spot I thought they would be bedded based off previous scouting and locating some beds.

I can’t begin to explain what a confidence boost it is to have that happen. If they are in the same pattern next Saturday somethings gettin an arrow flung at it!
