Team 8 - Aces N Eights

Well +1 for the smoker!!! Just as I was getting ready to grab my bow and climb down I caught movement directly behind me. It was a 2 1/2 y.o. doe, 2 yearlings and Grandma headed straight at me from directly downwind in a 6mph breeze.. The doe and 2 fawns followed the script and walked right through my shooting land but granny decided to go on the other side of the tree at the end of my lane and down into the thick thick woods.. The other 3 still following the script walked through my other lane and were hanging out for a min before walking down to meet back up with grandma.. Great encounter but no meat..
 
Good stuff Chris and John. I'm going to get out at some point this week. First good afternoon to evening sit will be Friday. I will try and hunt a morning this week TOO but things keep coming up. It also sucks that I get home around 3:30 and there's a good 3 hours of down time before heading to my stands. Do I sleep or stay up? Then if I hunt till 9:30 or so I only have 3-4 hours of sleep before the girls get home and that's when I make them something for supper and get them ready for volleyball practice or help with homework if any is needed before heading to work. If my shift started 2 hours later it would be ideal but that's the way it is.....I'm done bitching. Lmao

Y'all be safe and good luck out there!
 
Nope me either.. Saw a total of 5 tonight but they stayed bout 70-80 yds out.. Then I'm leaving to come to work and I hit one on the road behind the farm.. Thankfully it was a little one and only damage it did is dent my license plate.. The ol Dodge ripped it up good and pretty much skinned it out.. If it wasn't so tore up I would have taken it..
 
Welp gonna try and go out in the morning and see if I can add a few more points for us.. I know Ric is going out both morning and evening as well. Good luck buddy! How awesome would that be for you to get one in the morning and your daughter in the evening! Or pull a double in the evening!

Good luck guys!
I am also heading out this morning looking for one of my bucks.
 
Got skunked this morning. I did post up a pic of Karissas hunt last night for some youth bonus points. Now if we can kill something decent for her youth team my season would be made!

Good luck to any of you hunting tonight!
 
Good luck to everyone who's been going out and congrats to John for getting us rolling. I haven't been out yet. Monday was going to be my first try but now it looks like it will be the early muzzy doe season before I make it out. My vacation starts the 18th so I'm patiently waiting to go full speed ahead.
 
Well I might try to get a hunt in this evening. 30% chance of rain starting at 4pm down where I hunt, but that really dont mean a whole lot to me. If it was up 70% or so I might rethink it. I will let yall know what happens...
 
Well I didn't get out.. I didn't set an alarm cause my g/f was supposd to wake me before she went to work but didn't.. Oh well next time I will set an alarm.. Instead I went to Dunhams sports and got me another hang on and a few other goodies. I will be headed out after work in the morning for sure as long as it's not raining buckets.. Good luck to everyone that goes out! Bowie how long is your vaca, and how much of it are you gonna be hunting?
