I've been deer hunting for 6 years and this is my first deer. I never gave up and finally accomplished a long time goal..I've been hooked but now it's an addiction

Last nights young doe nixed todays hidey hole hunt...but no complaints...I can relax knowing we have some fresh venison in the freezer...and I havn't lost my touch/luck...shoulders a tad sore today anyways...So many good plans worked but didn't pan out until last night...and a fight almost messed that up too...I knew all the deer where held up in that neighbors land..this confirmed it...also found a bedding /rub area right behind the stand on the other neighbor...I'm so glad I stopped her and got retrieval permission again this summer...Good luck guys

I'm going down to my spot today ( took a decent buck Sat.) and use my leaf blower to clear 4-5 foot wide path to my one stand that is a 225 walk through the woods ( top stand too). All my other stands are 30 yards or less into,the woods but mostly thickets where it's not much of an issue .

I got in without getting blown today then the young buck helped chase a doe to me :-)

Back from Camp. Had a good time hiking the Big Woods. I wasn't really hunting hard as I am saving my tag for BigBoy whom I got an camera day after my Archery 10 point. A new monster rub and scrape were made while out of town and deer have been hitting a mock scrape I made a week or so ago. Taking it easy otherwise, while waiting for gun to open. Back to Camp again next weekend.

Didn't have signal from the cabin yesterday, so here's my update. Went out and hunted while sick, got a Charlie horse shifting in my seat to get a draw on a deer. Shot that deer in spite of all that was against me. What I thought was a respectable 4 point turned out to be a wee 8 point. My first ever archery deer and I'm quite proud. 12 yards from a ground blind 42lb Elite Hunter. Full account coming soon to the harvest thread. Back to work, not reality, today.

Wife missed about 4pt broadside. She is usually an excellent shot but this time buck fever got her. I saw lots of squirrels. One climbed up my tree behind me and was frigging around above me. Dropped stuff on my head, my Xbow, and made a racket. I was going to launch an arrow at it but it ran away. So much for my morning.

What part of 3N? I was in carmel yesterday and Saturday and saw nothing. My dad saw a 4pt yesterday, and the neighbor who hunts a few hundred yards away saw 4 does and 3 bucks yesterday but no chasing. Luck of the draw I guess. wish I saw that action.

Oh he's all guy...but he really has a thing about bow hunting...just not a fan at all...Never can give a reason just doesn't like it...but he has looked over my shoulder reading some of the " I lost threads" and I lost that big buck a few years back, even with deer search...though we now know where he is... :rolleyes::angry: ...he is the fisherman in the family
