Man Charlestown is really thick. We didn’t find any place that we could see over 35 yards. Did drive around and found a decent looking hillside that no one was on at noon. Really want to get my buddy on a deer. He hasn’t killed one in the last 5 years since he has been hunting with me.

I've got the next few evenings to make it happen. Leaving for Montana on Saturday. I never have been good at hunting the late season.

Cleaned the .308 up and put it away. Deer is quartered out and put in cooler. Time to let the muzzleloader loose. May grind some meat tomorrow.

Forgetful me.. I left my electronic muffs in the truck. When I gets a little lighter I'm going to cut the corners off my handkerchief to stuff in my ears. There is no way I'd shoot this gun without some hearing protection. Don't feel too bad Woody. I got to the park a bit behind schedule, checked in and at the gate realized that I had NOT put my blaze orange vest in the truck... Turn around and go back home to get it. While I was there I thought that I'd better grab a chemical hand warmer too. Turned around got there after sunup, but still ended up with a small 6 point that is all busted up. Pics to follow tonight.

I'm in a stand at the head of a very long draw, with a perfect wind coming right up it to me. The only not-so-good aspects are the sun is in my face and everything is a lot more brushy since they timbered two years ago. If a buck shows up, I hope he stops in an opening.

To say this deer season has been frustrating is an extreme understatement. Nevertheless, I'm in a stand I dearly love. I've hunted this stand on this little piece of property for somewhere between 25 and 30 years. Spent a lot of time in this stand, seen quite a few deer in this stand, pondered a lot of life's complexities in this stand, and watched a LOT of sunsets from here. If the good Lord would let me kill a buck here tonight, and any buck, doesn't need to be a monster, my hunting life would be complete. And if not, that's ok too, it's awfully sweet just being here again.

We finished up at Potato Creek. Low amount of shots heard. My buddy got a small buck early, then a doe. He asked if I could help him recover them. I waited a little bit to pack everything up. I finally got down, kinda bummed from not seeing anything. Got about 30-40yds from my stand, and a doe blasts out across the ravine I am about to whalk out thru. Got her. Blink of an eye and here comes another. He dropped down in the ravine, so I got ready. He came up the far bank, and I yelled and screamed and got him to stop. POW! Let him have it where it counts with the 350 Legend AR. He rared up, came down and took off. Saw him go about 60yds and quiet. Heck of a day!
