RE: Your Hunt Today! Lets Hear it!
Well guys, today is the last day of Ohio's two day gun hunting season. Went out yesterday and deer scored 4 and I am at zero. I was walking back to blind and I could here deer crossing tracks, if you have never heard a deer go up a steep RR bank, its loud!! Well it sounded like it was eighty or so yards in front of me and going into the swamp, so I was excited. Well I get to my path that I had cut and here something off to my left. Look over and here is a doe about five yards from me looking me dead in the eye's! It's amazing that how when its dark they lose all the fear compared to daylight. Well it wanted in the swamp and I was in its way so it turned around and went back into the feild and cut in about fifty yards down the tracks. I turn my light on and looked into my blind area since it is only about thirty yards from RR tracks and what do I see? Two sets of deer eyes about ten yards from blind, and its 45 min until legal shooting time! SO I camp out on tracks and watch them, figuring I could wait until daylight, get a shot, or spook them in dads direction. But a train went by and they moved on when it blasted it's horn so no deer! Jumped one up on the walk to dad, but it was running and never stoped, so I did not shoot. Maybe some luck this evening!
Thanks guys for the comments! I is nice to have everyones stories in one place for review and good reading. I also like that we can make post about just normal hunting to see what every one is up to. I plan on copying this whole thing after season and keeping it as a journal.
