Not much going on in my last outing Monday morning, but tonight was "interesting". I set up early afternoon in a deep woods oak flat - whiteoaks are just starting to drop around here. Around sunset, I heard deer approaching in dense understory and could barelymake outa racked buck scavenging acorns in the thicket about thirty yds away. I could hear another deer walking in the vicinity,but could not make him out. I wasn't too excited about the first buck until he fed away into a small opening and I could see good mass and a rack beyond the ears, holy cow! Unfortunately he left the area, but definitely an adult buck -- his companion got within ~25 yds, but stayed in the dense thicket and left to join his buddy - I could see thathe was branched, but could not tell if it was the other buck's grandson or granddad... that adrenaline rush iswhy we keep coming back for more, lol.
