Thanks guys, I appreciate the congrats! I love that feeling when you see a deer walking in, it never gets old.
Also, thanks for the concern about the shooting hours. Legal shooting hours ended at 6:51 p.m. last night and my watch is set 5 minutes fast, so the shot took place probablly in that last minute. Cutting it very close.
Thank you though PA Hardwoods, you brought up a great point. I never even thought to look at the hours! Hopefully this post has helped some people look into that!
Well, tonight I went out hunting and saw a nice doe and a button buck when I was getting ready to get out of my stand. They stood around for close to 20 minutes and I didn't want to spook them, so I waited for them to leave the woods. Also saw a groundhog and 2 raccoons while in stand!
I am keeping out of my better spots for now. Towards the end of the month I will head into some of my better spots and try them out. I don't want to pressure them until the time is right!
