Bumped not one not two not 5 not 8 not 10 but 14antlerless walking in. It wasnt one big cluster or get the gun settled on the next one it was spread apart in small groups of two or 3 at a time like they were perfectly spred out along the edge. Almost all 150yrds out dead run everytime. One kinda button buck looking deer stopped at 100yd and said 'shoot me!' I looked him over in the scope and said, 'na bro, go be with your friends.' Take out chinese food sounds good.

4 does from this am came out 1st to feed. I could tell with one gimping some on a back leg. 10 of the 14 that i bumped came back out to feed. 4 bucks were bedded opposite side of the lot of all the does i bumped walking in. One decent buck watched the 3 youngsters spar away. Does fed toward me. I picked a plump one held just above her bac and shot. No hurt reaction while running on by me. They went 400 yards and stopped and were met by the bucks in the wheat field where i had the staring contest before daylight. Only they were joined by a freaking stud of a buck who ended up dogging some of them around. I was nervous i may have hit that doe but i believe it was gimp acting off in the wheatfield. Either way the boy and i went out to check for blood. No hair no blood no worries. We checked extremely well. Over 20 deer seen tonight. I dont think that lot has been hunted during gun seasons just the one that joins it by a fencerow. Im horrible at open field yarage ill own up to that, but maybe the chirpy little bastard red squirel barking above me through me off haha. O well. Good hunt reguardless.

Ain't seen shit.....
Sucks I know. I’ve put in so many hours this year and no real returns. I did take a doe within 20 minutes of sitting my ass down, and when I reflected on it, I got the feeling I was robbed of something. That something was the rest of the sit where I got my thoughts together, recharged my batteries and no one bothers me. You score every hunt regardless if you fill the freezer or not.

Thats an honest thought. Thanks for that perspective.
