Feel lucky.
My favorite PM from what seems to be one of the Bow Hunting forum Gods asked "Why in the "eff" do you have your son straddeling the deer? Show some "effing" respect for the animal." What's even better is that theyrarely post a negative comment in the thread...just PM's and emails.

Went out this afternoon after a morning of sighting in the muzzys. Did not have time to do it this week so we had to do it this morning. The weather was crap. I about wrecked my truck on the way out to shoot, slid on a piece of ice and fishtailed it into the other lane. Thankfully nobody was coming. We made it into the woods about 3 or so. We seen 9 doe. They were on their feet pretty much the whole time we were there. They were feeding on shrubs in a bottom area, not wanting to head into the winds and snow covered fields i guess. Unfortunately no bucks. I'm confident one will show up for the 2nd round of rutting though as long as nobody pushes the does out of there. I'll go a few times this week and then most of next week. I can't go all this next weekend, i got the in laws christmas in southern indiana to attend[:'(]

I went out with my brother in law this afternoon to set some traps and do some rabbit huntin. Got a couple rabbits. I was surprised we saw any though with as cold and windy as it was. One of them didn't jump until I was right up on it!

Well, my brother shot his first ever buck this evening. I was not there when he shot it, so he sat in my stand and shot it about 4:30. It's the same 8 point i passed up earlier in bow. No monster, but a nice little buck for him. I guess the other guy that hunts that woods scared the deer to him while he was walking to his stand. I drove out to help him gut it and noticed the deer still had extremely stained tarsal glands. He was with 2 does as well when my brother shot him.
