Default RE: 30-Official Team Dirty 30 Thread

I had that same trespasser threaten me with an axe this weekend (while I was holding a BP rifle). So we had the middle of the day tied up with the County Sheriff. Sheriff wasn't too helpful and was only willing to give the guy a criminal trespass warning.

As far as hunting; Friday was bow only and I had several does just out of range and my buddy arrowed a 7 pointer. It was a good hit, he could see blood coming out of the entrance wound 2/3 of the way up his body behind the shoulder,but the angle was steep and he may have only hit one lung. We lost the trail and spent several hours looking for it but couldn't find it. Saturday I had my bow and gun up in the stand with me and this time the does came within range. I got a hit on a nice mama doe and had good blood but she made it across the creek onto the neighboring property. After the run in with the trespasser and the sheriff involved I wasn't going to get caught trespassing to get the deer. We didn't know who the owner of that property was either so we couldn't get permission. Didn't see anything else that evening. I'm taking off Thursday, Friday, and Monday. I'll be BP hunting but will have my bow with me too. If I get a nice one with the BP I'll revert to bow. Lots of movement. We were seeing deer move as late as 10:30 until we had the run-in with the crazy axe man. Lots of road kills too.
