Hunted hard all weekend, all day sits on Sat and Sun and 12-dark on Friday. Saw numerous good bucks, had one real nice 11 in range yesterday, but I f-ed that up. So, a real disappointing weekend. Gun season is this coming weekend and i'm not real optimistic for the prospects late-season. The 540 acres that borders my ground has 16 gun hunters this year, and the piece across the road, about 180 acres has 9 guys gun hunting, so let the war begin. With any luck, my ground will be a bit of a sanctuary for the deer during the intense firefight. Next time I'll be bowhunting isn't until that second weekend in Dec. I was ready to do a swan dive out of the tree yesterday when that buck bounded away unharmed. Spotted me adjusting my feet for the shot and got the hell out of dodge. That's hunting, but it still sucks!
