People really do suck, I hate to see idiots running around giving hunters a bad name.

for us we only saw some does, this 3 legged doe from last year is still making it. I will probably put her down, I would hate for her to suffer at the jaws of coyotes

Hunted this am with Nate. Didn’t see shit, neither did Eli. My dad slept in, big shocker. Once we got into some cell service, I got a text that he shot a buck. Nate and I met up with him, and it was in one of the deepest and steepest bottoms on this chunk of public we were hunting. It was his first buck ever, so we were all super happy for him. Bitch of a drag, but so much easier with handles 😂 Nate and I turned and burned home since I have no tags and he’s only got a buck tag for public now, plus we have 2 deer to get cut up. I have to rezero my rifle as well since it’s off by 2-2.5 feet, but we’ll get into that later lol.

Meandered around for 3 miles on Vinton Furnace yesterday and 3 more today on the Wayne. Didn't see a damn deer, but I did jump what sounded like a big buck this morning in a classic bedding spot, and he let me walk past him before bounding off when I stopped to listen. But I sure did see some pretty country. I sat next to a black oak yesterday and a white oak today that may be as old as America. Pretty fitting to do that on public land. I had moments of silence and solitude that only come from the big woods and it was worth every step to soak that in!
