well, shooting the bow went well...could be tighter at 20 and 30, but, boy id hate to be a deer...i really owe my groups to the Viper sights...i know once i get shooting more i'll really be drilling them...about time to quit group shooting at 30 before i start bustin shafts..so im happy...i know if the viper wasnt on my bow, i wouldnt be shooting this well, this quick...what did i shoot? 8-10 times since i been home and already close to shafting arrows at 30? id say im doin well!

groundhog hunting was good...got a LATE start..setup the rifle and carpet and all that...glassed across the pasture and there stood one...layed down and got in position...325-350yd shot..chuck stood up..crosshairs on the head...WHAM! red mist filled the air...was no surprise when i went over later to find 1 well placed bullet in the head! had a pretty recint wound to its foot...pretttty sure i hit him last week

coon hunting was good..just me and mans best friend..it was hot, i swallowed and inhaled more bugs tonite than i may have done in my whole life...but it was a good nite...saw something like 8 does(most likely does) and 3 others (most likely all buck) 1 looked like about 100" 2.5yo..nice and tall 14-16" wide from what i could tell...other 2 looked like they had small racks..

Rob, to answer your question about coonhunting scaring deer, well.....i had the dog treed 150-200yds away down the field and into the woods...i walked within...oh...150yds of the 3 bucks before i seen them..they let me get within about 80 or so before walking down the field away from me...never really spooked! fog was somewhat thick so it killed my light a good bit(why i couldnt see the racks REAL well..)

also drove past 6 deer(what i said were likely does) 2 on the left of the farmer road and 4 on my right...the 2 on the left were within 50yds and just stood up, let me shine them and didnt move...4 on the left snuck into the corn but didnt high tail it or anything...

so i still say coonhunting doesnt bother deer...id say they dont associate it with danger...sure they MIGHT be affected and i have no idea...but from what i see pretty much every nite i hunt, i dont think they are affected


UPDATE on my honey hole situation....talked to my farmer buddy and he said its his cousin(i believe thats what he said lol) and he got 5 bucks on trail cams in my honey hole...only 1 is legal..wouldnt say how big...but my buddy made it sound like he pulled the cams and is in another spot now...like i said, im not worried about it, and im still not worried about it...
