He’s dead, go get your harvest! Congrats.Made it back to the cabin unscathed. I’m pretty sure he’s done but gonna give it an hour or so. He lifted his head only once between 2:45-3:45 and had it laying flat on the ground the rest of the time. At 3:25 he thrashed and tried to lift his head but couldn’t. Fingers crossed
FWIW, If he isn't definitely dead within two hours, I think I would be inclined to start my exit with plenty of light so I could keep an eye on any movement he might make until you are an adequate distance away so as to not possibly disturb him. It is very likely that if you shot him at noon and he is not dead by 6pm, he is not liver shot, or just barely nicked it and he is just gut shot. He is not going to move more than a few yards unless you, other deer, coyotes, dogs or something makes him move. Carefully, cautiously sneak in there in super stealth mode in the morning to retrieve him or finish him off.That’s the plan, I’ve got nothing to lose but him. It’s windy and crunchy here. He’s only lifted his head once in the last 30 minutes. It’s so low in the brush now I keep losing sight of his antlers. Time is on my side. I think i can safely sneak out if I decide to
well, never mind, I guess.FWIW, If he isn't definitely dead within two hours, I think I would be inclined to start my exit with plenty of light so I could keep an eye on any movement he might make until you are an adequate distance away so as to not possibly disturb him.

I’m pretty certain he’s dead at this point due to the death thrash he did but still gonna be super stealthy, bow in hand when I go back inwell, never mind, I guess.

It isn’t up against Jesse’s 80 acres, is it?We made it back to Giles house. Sitting around dj said I’m going hunting. I said why don’t we scout. He picked the place and we got there. Walked around found good sign, trails, scrapes and rubs and someone’s cam. Marked a bunch of spots and looking on onx, I said let’s go to the other end and look. We split up and I didn’t find anything to promising but dj found what appears to be the holy grail spot . Big rubs, scrapes, trails, poop and tons of while acorns. And it ain’t 2 miles back. We will set up in the morning wish us some non resident luck . View attachment 187145View attachment 187146View attachment 187147View attachment 187148
anybody know what kind of shroom this is. It’s like a giant puff ball and is it edible? View attachment 187149
Hope not but if it is, I will let him pet one of his culls he’s been passingIt isn’t up against Jesse’s 80 acres, is it?
