Started work at 4 this morning so I could have a 2 hour hunt afterwards. Set up tight to suspected bedding on a cross wind. Doe and 2 fawns came out at 5. Killed the doe. First deer of the year for me. Got a long drag ahead of me. Got her with the old 870 12 gauge. Good for you on the doe. Bad for you on the drag lol.

Went out this afternoon for the first time in a week due to have the Rona. 😂 Hunted from the ground with my bow on public land. Set up right next to bedding with my wind blowing out over water. Had a yearling come in to 10 yards before she saw me. She got a pass. Then saw 2 does being chased by one of the biggest bodied bucks I’ve ever seen about 150 yards from me. Then had a dorkiest come out of bedding at about 25 yards. He got a pass as well. Ended up seeing 7 total. Contemplating doing the exact same thing in the morning. Wind direction is great. Wind speed... not so much. 😑

Well made it to my blind by 3:50. Told the boy to go in it and I'm going to the river stand. Got to the edge of the woods and seen a tail......crap. So bellie crawled aboot 75 yards to the fence line to get behind a big log. Got there and tried spying what I had seen. It was a doe who was trying to I spy me. But in the process of looking for more deer a doe behind me, neighbors property, busted me....crap. so just stayed there and seen 4 bucks, small, and 7 does. Couldn't get a shot at any of them except the small bucks. As I was getting ready to leave a doe was coming straight towards me. If it would have been still been leagel time it would have been a 5 foot shot!! She smelled me and did the pomp and circumstance for aboot 5 min before finally leaving.

No deer again tonight...going to wait and see if I can get some permission to hunt some property once firearms is over. I haven't seen a doe to shoot since October 14 at the property I hunt on. All bucks. Not sure what is going on.

Have been watching several smaller bucks this last week chasing does’s around my property. Tonight a giant stepped on the field at 90 yards, 10 minutes after shooting light...🤬.

That’s what it’s all about. Congrats to the both of you. I’m sure there’ll be many more to follow, but that first is always special.

I still think using a FEL on a tractor is cheating for recovery if someone is under 50 years old. LOL

Congrats to the young feller!
I saw two does tonight. Checked a couple cams and still have bucks around, just yet to be in the right time/right place.
