I wonder if we could start a business called "deer down daycare". A place you can drop of you kids,dogs,mother in law if needed. You can pay by the hour. Seasonal income to support the habit!
Got in stand late dealing with lil mans doe and school. (I let him sleep in we were out late learning field dress basics in the barn) had one buck and two does about 70 yds as I climbed into stand. Nice morning out. Good luck fellers!
The deer is dead guys. Thanks for the concern. I'm a pretty ethical guy and played things as I felt were best. Shot was fine. When I say wriggled I meant raised her head a little maybe a kick every ten minutes. She died in under and hour.
I've had them get up and run off and never find em. I can't really get a good shot from where we were and the way she is laying. That deer will be dead in an hour
Liam got it done. Just as we were ready to pack it in. Doe walked out. Didn't see the shot too good. She is still wriggling around about 30 minutes after. Think it might be high she dropped were she stood. Guess we have to go eat spaghetti and wait!
The boy said "we can't kill a deer at our house. " so we came out and conditions went from wizard of oz to near perfect. Cool. Slight breeze lite misty sprinkle.. good luck to whomever is out!
Is it normal to just sit in my garage and stare at this deer all night? I think I got the fever;the ocdh!! Here are some follow up pics GOOD LUCK to all my TOO blood brothers!!
Yes. A lot of work today. But the rush!!! I'm already plotting on taking daughter out Saturday. She came home from school and saw him in the garage and went straight to the laundry room with the scent killer detergent in her hand.
