Nice job....

10:30 AM... huh... You always sit that late this early in the season?

Congrats.

No but as of saturday i was hunting and i after 9.45am i decided to get down. I had not seen a deer all morning?
I took a couple of steps when i seen three deer a big doe and three little ones moving threw the woods,
I let them move on before trying totrying again to get out of the woods.
I had not taken 20more steps when i noticed three more doe`s comming strait at me so i just stood there hoping they would move by without getting spooked but before they reached me they turned and walked into another direction.
This got me to thinking of sitting longer on the stand?
And sunday that is what i did, I seen 7 deer after 10:00am sunday morning. thanks.

RE: Buck found after " Being Gut Shot"

Way to go teammate! I'm glad you got us on the board.

I had the same thing happen to me last year. I shot my buck and it was farther back than I thought. Started tracking and jumped him. So I backed out and found him the next day.

BTW, I have the same book. Its a great read.
