Twelve and counting
 
This morning I woke to my wife's urging " Get up, there's three bucks out back" Sure enough 3 of them in velvet about 110 yards from the back porch. They were developed to the stage where their forks were begining to fork (mulies). Just got back from a Sunday drive to a mountain valley and saw 9 other mulie bucks in three groups, one 4, one 3, and the last 2. Allwere developing into minimum 4 to 5 pointers (each side). Saw numerous does also, (ones in the back yard right now:))


Too bad I didn't draw a deer tag this year, maybe I'll get a leftover tag in another unit.

For those who did draw, looks like you'll have plenty to choose from:D.

Happy Hunting, Phil

Whether you get to hunt them or not.. its always nice to see deer and especially when you can watch them develop in stages maturing.

It sure is cayugad. These mulies are lot less skittish than those whitetails in Wisconsin. They seem to let you look at them till you're just tired of looking. First week in June we vacationed in Minnesota, saw lots of deer, but they were all "running for cover". We saw a little spotted fawn beside the road. When we stopped to photograph it, it layed down flat and tucked its ears back like a good little fawn. Lots of fun viewing wildlife, I love it.

Happy Hunting, Phil
