Water Hole Buck

Saturday September 25th, it's hot! The WFO boys have been putting the time into the woods, but it's very hard to get motivated when it is 95 degrees outside. Deer movement has been minimal during daylight hours. We haven't had rain for 3 weeks, so we knew the deer would be coming to the water hole.

We walked in, spooking 10 deer in the moonlight... bummer. I still had high hopes of seeing deer coming to drink from the water hole. At day break we had a fawn come in for a drink, encouraging us to stick out the heat. At 7:15 a.m., cameraman Doug shook the tree, signaling my attention towards the thicket to our right. I pulled up the binoculars to see the tall 8 pointer that I have been trying to get an arrow into for the last 2 years. My attention quickly went to the 12 pointer that was leading the way to the water hole. He stopped at 20 yards for a perfect broadside shot, and I let it fly.

The A Team Gets It Done

The 2010 hunting season has started off great. Doug Hancock drew the first blood with camera man Frankie Burch filming over his shoulder, making an awesome hunt to kickoff bow season. We were setup under a white oak that was raining acorns. The bucks literally came running in. It was clear which buck was in charge, as he was pushing the other smaller bucks around. Doug made a great shot and he only went 80 yards.



Frankie was up to bat next and he wasn't wasting any time getting it done. Great job boys!

Three More Days!!!

Three more days, the WFO boys are itching to get in the woods. We are starting to see some good bucks.

Labor Day Bonanza

It is really nice when a plan comes together and today was that day. Whackfactor's Trevor Michaels, Jesse Swann, and their retrievers headed to Newburg, MD to hunt Resident Geese. The day started off great with Woodducks flying around and Turkeys gobbling. After things settled down at about 6:45 we heard the first honk of a goose. As we looked to our left, a small group of about 15 geese were clipping the treetops with wings set headed in our direction. It made for a fun morning!

Ninja's dreams came true! Trevor and Jesse got their legal limit of dove....and dinner!
