The Bucks of November...

Since deer season started this year on August 15th, we have harvested 225 deer. Of those, 158 were bucks and 25 of those bucks were 8 points or better. We've also harvested over 60 hogs during this same 3-month period.

The rut continues to be hot here at Red Bluff, and we've had some great buck action this month. A few were posted on the last post; here are few of the rest:

Chris Roberts, shown here with his father, Keith, got his first deer on the evening of November 2nd. It was a nice 6 point, and a great shot.

The next morning, Keith took his turn with this 14" 8-point. Pretty good one-two punch for the Roberts, huh?

That same morning, Mr. D scored this nice 12" 10 pt. that weighed in at 150 pounds.

A great smile, for a great buck! Rich McCandless got this really nice 8-point on November 3rd. That morning, Rich harvested a 4-point, so this was a big day for him! This 8-point, which had some marvelous symmetry and detail on its rack, had a 16" spread and weighed just over 150#. Good job!

Another shot of this great buck with the whol Florida gang; Rich, Bud and Bobby. We always enjoy it when these guys come for a hunt. Whose turn will it be next year?....

The next morning, November the 4th, David Alexander got this buck that had - get this- 12 points! It had a couple of really nice kickers on its G2 tines. The spread was 16:, and it weighed 153 pounds.

Jacob Fulford got his first buck with us on the evening of November 4th. It was a spike that had a broken tine. Our whole family enjoys hosting Jacob and his father, Jimmy.

Audie Newman rounded out our first five days of November with this 12.25" 7-point, taken on November 5th that weighed 141 pounds.  Stand by...Jim just left with Zeke to find another 8-point that was shot at this morning in the A section.....
