Default RE: I dumped the MUZ & held a bow tonight.

Sounds like a good hunt. This ain't bowhunting, but I had a good hunt yesterday too.I was in Ohio, .44 revolver in hand. Colder than a witches elbow, but I was loving it.

I posted up next to a big oak tree to keep the wind off of me a bit and give a little cover. It's a nice point of land that has bedding cover on it and more open woods along the edge. I sat tight for 5 hours before the elements dictated I move. Had three doe and a half rack 4 point come by. Let em all walk.

About 12:30 I snuck further down the point to warm up a bit and posted up again overlooking a big bottom that runs to the lake. Snow was falling and the visibility picked right once it started laying. Saw two more deer but couldn't tell what they were. I snuck down over the hill and had em dead to rights. Two doe. Never pulled the trigger.

At an hour before dark thirty, I snuck back to my original spot through the snow coved woods. Felt good to be stealthy. Right before quitting time a 4 point walks right in and gives me 20 yard shot. Crosshairs lined up, hammer back. I let him walk too.

Never left the woods yesterday. Did't see another hunter. Didn't kill a deer. Didn't matter. Had an awesome day.
