After seeing very little sign for the past few weeks, the scrapes started showing up in the usual places. Saturday morning was extremely foggy and warm, but my son, Matthew, had come up from south Georgia for a hunt. He was glad he made the drive.
Although visibility, for most of the morning, was around 40 yards, there was not a problem seeing a deer closer than that. So at 8:15, when this buck showed up, Matt dropped him with a ten yard shot with his old Marlin .30-30.
We dressed him out at 150 pounds even, so I am guessing around 175-180 live weight.
