And just like that I have deer all over me.

2 does coming across the pasture and we’re about 30 seconds from getting in my wind when 2 baby bucks show up and start giving them hades. Followed by 3 more does and fawns.

This is the biggest. Young 8 with a split 2.

All around me and now downwind. Haven’t spooked yet but know I’m here.

Thanks folks. Definitely one of those moments I wish I had back.
I've let bigger deer go this trip but he will eat good.
It was early. One of those do or don't moments I hate.

The good part is. I have over a week to cook that skull, put up a couple ladders for next year, hang out with the landowner and goof off
Landowner will be excited and I may get a chance to drop one of those big does with the compound.
Been hunting here 15 years and never have.

PapaT is still looking for a giant and another buddy will be up tomorrow. Lots of excitement left.

Now. Hope this truck makes it back there.

You forgot the cooking for PapaT part.
At least we know now who is going to fry fish.

Yesterday we hunted until noon and got down bc Dennis brought us Subway so ate at barn real quick and made a plan
Jake was gonna hang and hunt from his saddle by a big community scrape and then Jess said I’m going to Ruffles and back in we go … I did not grab my battery multi charge ur phone deal so I get a text I see Seagram bc she thinks it’s a mangy 7 we have and I’m gonna shoot if he comes in … so I was in the dark more then usual … get back to SxS and charge phone and it’s blowing up bc they checking on me and finally says I believe I smoked Seagram … it had been a hour and Dennis had cooked up Shepherds pie so we ate on tailgate and kids went to find her buck
Jake in saddle heard running and was like chasing until running goes quiet and his sister text I just shot one … he immediately knew he did not have chasing he probably heard where buck died … he marks on his gps where he thought sound stopped and found buck 10 yards from his mark … he texts dad it’s Cletus not Seagram and broke off his drop but we dragging from the bottom
Be nice if bucks would run up hill to die
Anyway Jess was pumped after hitting high the other day and her bro getting her felt on QAD fixed and she back shooting dimes
That’s all I got … one more thing
I LOVE THIS STUFF !!!! View attachment 1340333

Grunting behind me

 

[Jim Thompson]

Line for coming down hill across the pasture. She almost bumped into my truck. Same time 2 does come out of woods to my right like they are on fire….danged spike chasing them.

Big buck has to be close and see all this

Light rain already. Hope it’s just passing by cause it’s about 3 hours early.

I’ll stick it out till I’m soaked and frozen.

 

[BowSniper]

Tragedy has struck. My thermos of coffee is not in my pack.

Look below you…

I'm sitting in a cedar thicket where 2 fingers taper off leading into a dried bottom. Just had a bruiser come in grunting behind 2 does, they pushed through at 30yds, hope he comes back

 

[campboy]

Checking in from work. Congrats to all the killers. Be safe and have fun y’all.

 

[doublecc27]

It has gotten all quiet on me in here

 

[Worley]

Spike is having fun with the does…hoping someone here’s the party and JOINS

 

[slow motion]

Nobody came out to play

 

[Jim Thompson]

6pt crossing to my right. While watching him a lone doe comes running out of the woods slams on brakes mouth hanging and looking back. Then she takes off the opposite way. Her buck never showed.

 

[slow motion]

@flatwoods we gpnn see a pic? Dont be shy brother. I shoot little deer after getting a good look at em.

 

[Jim Thompson]

Another doe coming across pasture with a tall but young 8 on her. They also walked past my truck to get down here. Truck is a couple hundred out beside some oil rigs. I zoomed way in but you can see the buck there.

Danged deer are everywhere and it’s raining good now.

 

[slow motion]

I know yall prefer the challenge of your bows but I've got enough challenges already. Need every advantage I can get.

I don’t care about the challenge. I just like shooting my compound. That and I’m still a lil scared of my crossbow

4 more does came in not a buck in sight.
