Had to take an “emergency” phone call from work. While whispering in phone, after seeing nothing all morning, that is when a doe came trotting through with a spike a few yards behind. Call ended abruptly! Nothing following. Dagnabit. Calling it a morning.
I was in before daybreak in Laurens co. I ended up seeing 4 does, and 3 small bucks. I took 1 doe for the freezer and left everything else alone. I called up all the young bucks with a rattle bag on separate occassions. 2 of them started pushing each other around, so i got some great video of that. I plan on heading back out for the afternoon. I had a big one on my trail camera working the scrape line yesterday. Attached is a picture of the doe on my trail camera right before she became jerky. One of the scrapes is just to her left in the picture.
Had a pretty good morning in Pike heard chasing multiple times but deer were running through thick stuff..then a nice buck came out by himself to make a scrape and i dropped him in his tracks
