today i went out with my buddys to do some driving and such trying to get the deer to move...2 posters 2 drivers.....the 2 drivers didnt take guns they got bucks already....me and another kid didnt so we posted....1 driver kicked up a buck and hollared to let me know.....couldnt get a shot becuase he was running 90mph.....so we tracked him down and i seen him across a valley about 200+yards out....i got the fever over the antlers and didnt think..i just shot....free hand standing...over 200yards....my bullet went just low and he took off up the hill.....DANG!! looked like a nice 8pt or so from what i could see...not huge...maybe 12 14 inch spread..nice long beams though......probally 2.5year old....we couldnt find him after i missed....we checked for blood for 100yds...nothing...then we lost him....but it was time to go start the BIG drives with my friends uncles and friends.....about 15 of us.....i drove the first drive.....we put out atleast 3 bucks and a few does....they all snuck around the posters..1 kid never seen a buck when deer hunting finally seen one today....a big 8pt half rack(4 on the side it had) he missed though...so we goto another spot where alot of the deer may have ran.....i was posting this time.....nothing came though....so the drivers keep going past us becuase theres a thick creek bottom below a pasture and more posters a few hillsides away(yes we cover ALOT of land) the drive leaders driving told us to turn around the deer may double back.....i was like way right...4 or 5 more guys posted and 4 or 5 guys driving the deer aint comin out the back door....20 mins passed..i look and 2 animals were booking it through the pasture right towards me....i was the only one with a doe tag and the only junior posted where we were and i can take any buck ARs dont apply to juniors....so either way i could take the deer....they get about 100yds away and i say bah....bah and stop them...a big one and a little one.....thaboom! i shot the big one of course....dropped her right in her tracks.....the mauser strikes again....a nice BIG doe....everyone about crapped...it was a pretty good shot....i dropped it right infront of a kid a few years older then me....i dont know him...they were running right at him and i knew he didnt have a doe tag so i took the shot(yes it was safe.....she was pretty much between us....) he got to watch it all.....i dont think hes much of a hunter by the way the other guys talked...they didnt even know he had a liscense..and he looked kinda lost....so he got to see how its done....from the shooting to the gutting he watched it all.....it was my first time driving deer like that....i mean me and dad push to eachother once in a while when hunting if rough...but never successfully....it was fun in its own way but not my cup o' tea in another.....im used to hunting a thicket...30yard shots at deer standing or sneaking through...sometimes running but at 30yds it dont matter...so it was a whole new ball game....i wish i would got down and got a good rest on the buck....but you know...the fever gets to you and you dont think.....but i still got a week to fill my buck tag....and im saving my other 2 doe tags for muzzleloader season......so far thats 2 does for me this year....im doing pretty good.....now to find one with antlers......but remember guys....we shot all the deer in PA last year.....theres none left.......the 2 i got this year came from ohio id have to say.............
