Yep, exactly 366 days ago today, I was sitting in Orangeberg county on the edge of a peanut field (with a rifle... shame on me), watching 18 does, fawns, and small bucks feeding away unmolested by my 120gr TSXs. Had to wait on big boy, who never showed.

Also saw the undisputed largest Eastern Diamondback in the state. He stretched out on the path under my stand (getting down in the dark was fun), but he gave me two good reference points. Got a tape from the truck.... 83 inches long... from what I could tell I only counted 9 rattles.

The hazzards of the early season.....
