Good luck to those that got out today.

Boys my days of suffering while hunting in chilly temps and dealing with the constant frozen tundra-like winds of Fayette County are over. If ever there was a pleasant way to watch for deer during firearms season, this is it! Good luck all, I’ll check back in after I take my coat off.

Dan and I finished today and rolled home. This morning I saw 5 slicks and 2 bucks. Dan saw 6 slicks. 22 deer combined over a day and a half hunt. No shots fired as the deer remain unharmed. We could have stacked it deep had we wanted dirty hands. Much fun was had enjoying God’s gifts.

Settled in with coffee and snacks. Kids are at Grandma’s.

The girls had a parade here earlier. Had some buck action on cams right after last light last evening. Beats work!

Did a lot of ridge walking this afternoon. Jumped 6-7 deer out of a deep draw about 10 minutes into hike. Got them to stop but didn’t feel comfortable with shot due to proximity of property line. Walked some more ridges. Settled back down in a spot and had a nice buck chase a doe right by me at 50yds. Turned broadside and stopped too late. Gun was up and ready to go just couldn’t pull trig. Was a great evening to get out. Only heard a few shots nearby.

Had 4 doe come in at 3:00pm.
After 30 min of milling around I picked one, took one last look down the woods for da 30 point buck I had hoped would be following but wasent and let the Marlin 44 carbine speak.
She “hunch jumped” and ran the 30-40 yards, crashing in the thickest pricker brush she could find with a blown out heart.

Made it home from camp early afternoon and I went out to the back 40. The 45/70 got to speak today.

Just a suggestion..... Cut a finger off a rubber surgical glove and slip it over the barrel of that muzzy..Get some of that snow down the barrel and you may miss a chance at a nice buck, when she don't go bang... Glove finger will blow off if you shoot...

 

[Fletch]

Congrats CDJ3..... Also Congrats Buckmaster on a great looking buck.....

 

[brock ratcliff]
