So the season ends Friday. Len and I decided to hunt every morning we can. I can't hunt Friday.<img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle> Anyway, we've had some almost and got busted by the wind a couple times. So this morning we set up about 75 yards apart just for the fun of it up where I saw the 5 bucks last Sat. The wind is wrong again. It shifted to bad once we got 25 feet up. 3 does did come in from up wind. I alerted Len with the radio as he was facing the other direction. He ended up with 2 of them right under him. Then they got a whiff or something and bolted. One stopped at 22 yards and he nailed it. That makes exactly <font size=4><font color=red>20</font id=red></font id=size4> for him for the year.<img src=icon_smile_shock.gif border=0 align=middle> 6 with the muzzleloader/shotgun, 3 with the X-bow, and 11 with his Darton. I've told you he takes no prisoners.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> He's doing what the landlord wants. Thinning them out big time. He's only shot one or two racked bucks,,,, the rest are does. He doesn't let many pass, but still to take 20 and 11 of them with a compound in the same year is quite a task. We have got the guttin' and draggin' pretty much down to a slash, zip, bang procedure.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> Me... I'm still at hold on 7..... but I do let a lot walk. I say Len is in charge of herd management.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
