i used the muzzleloader this weekend, but if anything it got me STOKED about bowhunting.

More of scouting out a block of woods than hunting. Saw deer every outting, as well as turkey and coyote and about 25 wood ducks. i hunted this block two years ago and was covered in deer. last year nothing so i decided not to hunti tthis year until this weekend. now i will be hunting this during the week after school and elsewhere on weekends.

mostly does and a small fork horn, but between me and dad we saw two "shooter" bucks....a nice racked deer that came in at dark to dads stand, didnt say what it was but could tell it was a big buck. Then on the drive out that morning we saw three deer on the neighbors farm. stopped the truck (no cars coming) to glass them, and they took off over the hill back to the block of woods i hunt. while runnin away i saw that one was a nice wide 8 or 10 that would push 120 probably. bow in hand, any 8 point basket or bigger is hittin the ground. im gettin antsy after waitin 3 years for the right buck.

found several GREAT straight trees to use the climber on, and we have a two man 12 foot ladder stand already hung from like three years ago. So i WILL head out this week with climber and bow and hopefully score one for the team.

i have too many yards to mow tomorow, so it looks like tuesday for me, unless i get a perfect wind when i walk outta school tomorow. then mowing will be officially postponed, who needs money anyways?[8D]
