Now JT and his Monster OH buck have proved me wrong from the start here, but generally late Sept and early Oct. can be tough times to kill deer. Many times they stay in the woods eating oaks, are hard to pattern, etc. I find that this is a great time to practice management.

I received this picture from a contact over at Cabela’s. Seems a 12 year old boy from Wisconsin shot this monster buck
