Useing my sixth sense( I think I keep track of wind involuntarily) I slipped into an edge of apine thicket. The leaves were nice and damp(no noise). I noticed a few openings around me and decided to stand still for a while. Well after about a half hour a deer appeared 10 feet(actually it was 20ft)away from me. I turned my scope to three power anddrawed my muzzleloader. It was a buck tearing up a tree right in front of me! I sized him up, a nice eight(at least one side was four). I hesitated, he wasn't as big as my other one so I waited. I lowered my rifle and he was gone in a blink. Next year I'll be looking for that guy, I hope he makes it, he will be a wall hanger.
Just wanted to share, thanks for looking!!
