We'll see how next week treats the doe herd, but things look good for Tracie continuing the streak and I may be able to fill my last tag without remorse.

Sure is purdy in the Corner Pocket with all tha snow.
My guess is this is 4 different family groups off roughly 200 acres.
For you aspiring master baiters, take note. There's 100#s per week spread over an 1/8 acre clover plot. It's tight to cover and the change in topography, with a strip of brush above it, makes them "invisible". Access for our hide is nearly flawless. There's levels to this game

Awww yeah!!!
Got our target picked out for the rest of the season. This doe is ancient and she's impossible to kill. Ruined many 'a hunt in her day, too. Game on!
If you look closely, you can see my stand at 12 o'clock right above her ass end. This will be a fun challenge.

Look at the body on her!! Wow. The one I killed opening day of gun reminds me of her. Gutted clean, and still weighed 121 lbs!!
The dad life overrode the hunting tonight. Would have been a good sit!

Plenty of days left for a good sit...days with your family are numbered...before you know it, they’ll be raising their own family. You made a good choice today!
Deer are amazing foragers. All that acreage to choose from, and they literally ate a circle through 5" of snow to find the highest density of the corn that was concentrated around the path I walked while spreading the last batch.
Makes you wonder why you waste time and energy on putting in plots.
Mainly because I enjoy the process because the results have been terrible. I grow gorgeous, magazine-worthy plots on an annual basis and the deer rarely feed in them. Too much ag, mast, and browse for them to become a big draw. I'm about to give up on greens and start planting forage beans and corn. Just grow my own bait...
