I knew I would regret shooting the smaller buck but didn't think I would regret it the first time I am back hunting after shooting it.
I take it you are in Faquier, PG, or Fairfax county with the EAB restrictions? Glad to hear you are seeing action. I'm going out on Friday for one last hunt until after Thanksgiving. |

I am in Franklin county and it has the EAB too. There are lots of does around so I hope to get one in the next couple days so I can get back to rack hunting.
What part of Franklin do you hunt? I hunt a little farm near Penhook. |

I dont know about you guys but I'm gonna be in the stand as soon as this weather clears out today. The milder temps kinda slowed things down here the last few days. I imagine this major temp drop will fire things up.

VA On a side note: My wife called me about 6:15 AM and said she had a large buck run in front of her on the way to work during the pouring rain. I asked her how big it was and she said, "like those you put on the wall!" |
