IMG_20260103_162133959.webp I had to work this morning. snuck back 1/2 mile in this ditch bottom for this evenings hunt. I lost my phone sliding down a section so I put tons of scent in the bottom walking back and forth searching for it. after locating I was sat in the brush next to this culvert. This is in the middle of an open field between two wood lots. 10 antlersless seen. All within bow range at one time or another. My scent kept them all occupied for the evening walking the ditch back and forth. Nice sized doe and fat ass fawn came down in the bottom a few yards behind where I took this pic. I couldn't move much from 4:45 until dark. I thought I was going to get sniffed by a fawn at one point passing by. I guess I'm not shooting a doe yet with a few decent bucks around and a hog a saw Monday across the road. I swear I get the closest to deer on the ground in snow conditions in white dirty ass camo. Having deer under ten yards on the ground look you up and down not spooking makes for a fun evening. I'm Deer watching until a freezer fill buck stumbles by. A large wood pecker flew into the culvert hole at one point we had a stair down, must have a stash or something inside. Very quiet spooky evening. Be out in the morning.
