well, went for only my second am hunt yesterday. had a ball. saw five does. had one doe grunting to her little ones who went flag up and off to her. I did screw up one shot opportunity that would've given me 5 archery deer, but like I said, I screwed it up. took yesterday off, and went to a spot I haven't been in two weeks. killed two doe out of there the last two times I have been there. got in and had a red fox come in. he cut my track and left in no less than a hurry. five male wood ducks, and two females were in the stream all night. I then had six antlerless come in in an overgrown stream bottom that I cannot wait to hunt in gun. three big does, and three little deer. I recognized one because I have passed her 2x because I thought she was a little one. they came no closer than 80 yds. after that I had some rare bird come in, a thrasher of some sort. then a red tailed hawk came in and landed 20 yds from me and kept me company for some time. the six does came back out of the thick stuff they went in to and I tried to grunt them in, but something from behind had them nervous. big matriarcal (sp) doe had them move on. they crossed the creek in no less than a racket and moved to my right in the thick stuff out of sight. three more came thorugh about 100 yds out, then came back through like the other six. I had a deer grunt back to me, but I couldn't see what it was. after that I had between 30-40 turkey vultures try and take up a roost in the same plot of woods. that was funny, not to mention noisy. they didn't like having to leave their roost after dark when I left. busy day, no kills, but I'll be back at it monday pm, and tues or wed am. still NO bucks. I've seen two. 66 does to 2 bucks. sex ratio a little out of whack? I cannot wait for gun season. hunters for the hungry are going to love me. my season best is 8 deer, somehow I think it will surpass that this year.
