Short version..Friday saw 4 bucks although 2 were buttons that bedded down 53 yards out from my stand. One of the otherswas a 4 point..and the 4th another non-shooter that visited the buttons they squimshly bowed to his superiority. Even though they did rub trees with there little nubs and even bumped heads a few times. They eventually made it right under me..damn nubs
NOW Saturday..I was just getting to the area I wanted to be..looking for a tree, whenI heard a deer running close (wet leaves hard wind) thought I spooked it. But once I see it, it's running at me..drop to knees, climber still on back, grab and nock arrow..she bolts by at 10 -12 yards behind her is a so-so buck chasing her and then a BIG Guy chasing them both..I gave a "maa..MAA" no stopping him he had a one track mind. That was at 3:10 PM. Saw one doe the rest of the evening no shot chance even though she was in range.
This is the same spot I saw "Chocolate Horns" and the "Dagger Buck" except I was back in the woods farther..any question where I'll be tonight?? May forego the treestand and ground hunt tonight, for some mobility. The wind last night was to swirly in that hollow.
