Opening Deer Hunting

November 9, 2008

We have a light dusting of snow on the ground. Temp in the 20's with some wind. It has been a cold opener, but we have been registering quite a few deer.

Froggy, his wife and three kids and Froggy's dad are all out hunting. They have me minding the store. Ben, Froggy's youngest, got his first deer yesterday, an 8 point buck, going 170lbs. Way to go, Ben! Sounds like the other 2 kids each got deer this morning too. Can't wait to hear all the details this everning.

We have three bucks weighed in for our biggest buck contest. Gabe Haaland leads with his 8 point buck weighing 236lbs; Chad Stangel got a 9 point buck weighing 224lbs; and Mike Bruns registered his buck weighing in at 208lbs. Hunters are having good luck. Deer seem to be moving with this cold weather.

Have a safe hunt. Good luck to all.
