Ill try one more time. I have been having problems posting to this site. Dont know the problem. I tried to post some of this years harvests but have not been able to post to this site. and this is my second try of today. arrggg
I had plans on going out to my land and spend all day Sat. hunting. But of course, things never go as planned. Fri. night I get a call that there is a clogged line at the church, so that kills Sat. morning hunt. Sat. morning I spend most of it digging up a sewer line. Get done around 2:00. Way to late to head to my land, which is over an hour away. So I decide to go to the river about 1 mile from my house and hunt the public land. Usually ok for hogs, but not all that good for deer. I get cleaned up, head out. I set up on a bluff over looking a heavily used trail. At around 4:00 I have a doe come in. So of course I have to send an arrow her way. She runs about 30 yards and piles up in plan site. I still plan to give her about 10-20 min, when out down the trail I see a buck with his nose to the trail following the does sent. So when he walks in range, I give him and arrow as well. He jumps, spins twice and drops on the spot. I can easily see he is done, so I go down and recover them and head home before dark. He was a big bodied 8 point that had been doing some serious fighting. Every tine on his rack was broke off.
I forgot to take pics of the doe, other than in the back of the truck for the ride home.
Sorry about the pics. I all I had was a phone.
And for the ride to the gutting spot.
And the great thing about this, this is a bonus buck. I shot him in Knox county, which is a two buck county. My land is in Kent county, which is a one buck county, so I still have one more buck to harvest. Three does and one buck left. The deer god were smiling on me yesterday. Ill take this over a hog.
Finally
