Had a good night
#1
Well I found some land near my school that I can hunt and figured I would take a walk there with the bow tonight since I have the day off tomorrow and wanted to hunt somewhere new. The area has a lot of fields but I wasnt sure what was going to be planted in the fields. I had google earthed the spot and found several spots with good potential and targeted those spots when I got there. The fields ended up being corn and beans with a large clover plot as well. After walking around for a while, jumping 4 deer, and finding many spots I was interested in hunting I decided to find a good vantage point to see if any deer entered the field before dark. At around 6:45 I saw a deer leave a strip of corn and enter a strip of beans. I got my binos on the deer and saw it was a nice buck so I walked down a road through the strips(seen in picture) and got to about hundred yards from him at the end of the strip he was feeding in. Ended up he was around 110 inch 8 pointer. After watching him for fifteen minutes I decided to start heading to my truck.
As soon as I started down the road and got to the next strip of beans I saw a head looking at me and as soon as I glassed it I saw a big rack, it was probably a 120/130 inch buck. He ran and along went 3 other bucks that I didnt get good looks at. I proceded on and ended up walking up to a basket 8 at the end of a bean strip. I used my light to see he was an 8 and saw 4 more sets of eyes out in the field before they ran. I am excited for what the day will bring tomorrow after seeing 6 bucks in the fields tonight. Sorry for the long read but I really enjoyed the night and wanted to share.
Here are some pics from where I stopped to glass for a while. The first buck was in the first strip of beans on the right in the first picture and the 4 bucks were to the left of the first pic at the edge of the field.
