This place is a ghost town!
Last weekend sucked - saw one doe.
Of course the weekend before (when I couldn't go) my dad got another 8 point and my brother wounded
a big buck but couldn't recover him (second chance he blew this season). My dad is rubbing in his 2 8's
pretty good. FYI, they aren't our biggest on cam (have 3 bigger deer), but they were both at least
3.5 years and one scored 98 (215 lb and 19" spread with no damn tine length) and the other 103 (210 lb),
so it was nice to see our work paying off.
The rut is now over and they are all pressured up, but I will be back out (hopefully) for some final
bowhunting the weekend of Feb. 7th. It will be after 2 weeks of no gunshots and 4 wheelers, so I'm
optimistic about the hail mary.
Just taking a doe with the bow will redeem this not so great (considering my effort) season.
It sucks that our team wasn't in the running cause I'm competitive, and it pisses me off that I
didn't contribute, but I've enjoyed being on this Team.
Yeah we had them pretty stirred up for a while at the beginning. But like you said it was a fun team to be a part of. I know I had a good time this year. And I think our team thread set a record for # of posts.
We also seem to have lost a bunch of guys and a lady in the middle of the season. Not really sure what happened there, but it was really rude of them.[:'(]
Good luck on your last minute efforts, Will. You never know it just might pay off big for ya.
