Default While they are sleeping....

I thought I would share a few pics of my wife's archery mule deer sdhe will be after,next month. We had been seeing a few bachelor groups of mule and whitetail buck hanging around our place. We had been seeing them almost every morning. But, hadn't been able to find where they were bedding. The other morning I bumped them out of this old loafing shed. So I placed the trail camera in there to catch some photos of them. Pretty cool to see their habits while they are relaxing. They ran my camera battery dry so I replaced it tonight. I am hoping to get some better picture of the biggest buck.





It is going to be tough hiding a ground blind but I think she can do it.
Hope you enjoy....

Amazingly adaptable aren't they.

That reminds me of a story I read in Bowhunter years back. A guy had a huge whitetail patterned but it kept disappearing on him out on those flat ranges (WY perhaps). Well one day he ventured out in front of the bucks path and low and behold he got pictures of the whitetail crawling into a den of some sorts. I forget what it was but it was man made built into the ground.

Like the Mulies above, probably the coolest place temp wise and stylin wise. [8D]

Where's the fence? LOL They're not so stupid after all are they. They found shade with a draft. Cool.
