First off, the promised updates from The Outdoor Smorgasbord have not occurred yet. He’s now waiting until he returns to give us the story… sorry for jumping the gun there…

Since my last post I’ve had a few days the typify November in Kansas. I’ve seen big bucks chasing does from the stand. I’ve had a good duck hunt in the rain. I must have put 500 miles on my truck… Oh, and there has been a sighting of The Big 9 (and here). For those who were readers in October and November of last year you’ll remember that I hunted this buck for several days before killing a better buck right at the beginning of the rut. A few days ago The Old Man sent me a text that said, “Saw the Big 9. He’s got a lot more mass. Was at 70 yards for several minutes chasing a doe.” He was in the same stand where the sightings were last season.

I saw a 145-150 class 10 point Saturday morning followed by a 130ish 8 point. Both were rutting hard and worked a trail without ever checking out my food plot. I’d give you pictures but I left my camera at home on that hunt.

For Thanksgiving I’ll be taking The Wife’s family to the cabin so hopefully I’ll get another crack at one of the big dudes I’ve seen in the last 10 days.

Oh, and the ducks are down… and I saw flight geese all weekend… and it’s supposed to get cold mid-week… And I have some dead bucks to talk about… Geez so much going on…
