Update on evening hunt. We went back to our stands except I went in sniper mode.... hunting on the ground. Passed my stand and went in another quarter. Jumped a deer, kinda looked like this years fawn.... I was thinking 50-60#. Sat down on a fallen tree that butted next to a big tree. Soon as I sat down I could feel cold wetness... yup ass is soaked. 5 minutes later, I’m looking the direction of the path that the deer ran and I see a “doe”. It was heading back from where I seen the deer run from. Looked small and shot wasn’t good so I watched it. Could’ve killed it (maybe) and decided to not shoot. After a few minutes I deduced it was the same deer and must have been young to have come back to its bed. Evening was eventful w tons of squirrels keeping me alert.
So after sleeping in a tent on cots, and trying to do the next night and it rained. We slept in the trucks. Tonight I couldn’t take it anymore so we loaded up and got a motel room. The shower felt like one of the best I’ve had lol. Going next door to the Mexican joint to eat. We will be going back out in the morning. I’m not expecting much of anything except time in the woods w friends and family and away from work.
I know the amount of deer y’all are used to seeing as I’ve hunted oos. I was expecting more action than we are getting. This live hunt could be the biggest dud on this forum. Thanks for following. To be continued.
