Incredible doe vs buck fat. The buck is bigger still just a weird angle.

I got a doe in 8F this afternoon. Yesterday I was holding out for horns. Today was for meat.

[Five Seasons]

Are you surprised?

Honestly yes. I coulda swallowed a loss, but not that they looked as bad as they did at home.

I was trying to teach a guy to butcher one time and I told him to go for a buck, it’s a lot easier to see the muscle groups haha

Dad just shot a buck, he was worried he blew out both shoulders but it snowplowed outa sight, driving to spot I found him by road still alive and he finished him. He woulda been dead in minutes however. 
best part I convinced him to go sit in my stand on a close property to my house while we were cutting up my deer.

Sat for the afternoon in the cold rain. No deer seen. Actually looking forward to sitting in the office for a few days...

Well just got back from @Swamp_bucks. What a trip! Evan is a great guy and his knowledge of deer hunting is phenomenal. He was very welcoming I visited his house a couple times. He found me a lake house that was great. We went out to eat a couple time. Let me tell you what his wife makes a great chili. He came through I seen deer and got my first archery shot opportunity but I shot in front of it. He gave me some great advice and even went to search cuz he was 60 yards behind me and heard a thwack. He offered me a good spot Friday night but wind wasn't right and had a white out. He also helped me setup my stand in a great spot. Opening day was like no other I seen 32 deer came through where I was at. I had a shot opportunity at a big 6 or 8. Shot he stood between 100-125 yards pulled the trigger click re racked click he was still there moved alittle repacked again click. So he got away. Got to drag out one hell of a buck Evan got. Long drag with help of a few friends. Let me tell you what he's got some great friends. After helping drag the buck to the truck. I went back on stand I'm glad I did mid day was awesome deer were moving like crazy. I couldn't find any horns. 23 deer come through. I sat till I could in my stand 330 then got down legs and hip killing me surprised I made it back to truck. Went back to the lake house had a few beers and debated launching the rifle in lake lol. Hunted today 515 to 930 no deer but a hunting party member shot a buck. The hunting, hospitality,food,friends and his family were fantastic. His friends offered me to hunt more midday but had to check out of house and take a ride to the taxidermist. Thanks Evan for the offer to comeback next year. Memories to last a lifetime.

It was a pleasure. Hopefully next year we can make it happen again.  Had a blast hunting with you.  I'll pass the message along to my wife about the chili.

Nothing for me this evening. My nephew got a doe down the road on state. Had deer all over him right before the wind and rain. I jumped two by the tower coming out.

Big body 8 point I grunted in at about 3:30. Sat behind a rock wall for about 45 minutes. Quick efficient hunt for once lol. Hopefully my buddy doubles up.

Didn't want to mess my buddy up so I sat till dark. Saw 10ish more deer one mature buck, two smaller. Walking out I could smell the other bucks I had previously seen. 

Could have and should have plugged a doe but was worried about messing up my buddy. Feels weird only having a crossbow tag left. Today definitely made up for sitting yesterday out.

Congratulations to all who connected today!

UGH! That sucks and sure makes for a long day! Know that you’re not alone though! I saw a coyote… that’s it. Well, other than the cool black squirrel!

Didn't see anything while I was in the stand but as I was walking out I ran into this single lady standing at the edge of my field. I waited 5 minutes and finally had to whistle her away. Waiting on a buck this year, but I was tempted.

Crazy isn't it?  One I took in October, inch and a half of fat all the way around him like a snow suit.  This last one, looked almost exactly the same as the one hanging in your picture.
