Lucky Hunting buddies
Does anybody else have a friend who never seems to kill a deer but always sees them? I have a friend that everytime we hunt I ask him well did you see anything and he is like yeah a doe. Everytime he hunts.. If it is either sex hunting he is like yeah I seen one but it was running and couldnt get a shot and about twice a year he sees a monster that he couldnt get a perfect shot..

RE: Lucky Hunting buddies
I have a family member that seems to see more deer than anyone else and hardly ever fills his tag. Couldn't get a shot off, deer hidden behind a tree,,,,too far away,,,deer running. etc.....we have all heard them
I do see a lot of deer where I hunt, mostley does and by the end of the season I can recognize the deer as I know I am seeing the same deer over and over most of the time. I had 2 does 1 fawn and a button buck visit my stand every morning 45mins after sunrise every day last year for the first 2 weeks of the season, on the 2nd saturday I took a decent 7point.

That is what my brother in law always said about me last year.Now let me tell you we hunt just about every day of the season we are lucky that our jobs allow us to but any way like iwas saying when opening morning come around we went to our usual hunting grounds and after we got done he didn't see anything and i told him that i saw a real good a8 point but could not get a shot on him so he believed me then.well we kept hunting and iit seemed like i would see that buck at least once every 3 days of hunting but he would always be running or to far or behind some brush and i kept telling my brother in law about it and he finaly quit believing me and ignored it.until one day i connected with the monster he field dressed 190 lbs and we green scored him at 150 and i dont know about you but in east tn that is a nice buck.but any way that finaly shut him up for good and when i say i see a good buck now he believs me.

One of my friends always goes out deer hunting, every year. He always sees many deer. Never shots one. I don't think he wants to kill one.
And ya know what? I'm fine with that.
Any time ya got a date with Mother Nature is cool, right?

RE: Lucky Hunting buddies
I've got a friend kind of like that, but he doesn't say he sees alot of them. Thing with him is, he has shot one buck in 10 yrs on our hunting lease/club. I'm pretty new to the club, but the other guys say he just likes coming out to the place. He has a nice box blind, built like a house, about 8'X8', stocked with crackers, vienna sausages and other snacks. The club is his social activity, as he is about 50 yrs old, has never been married, and just likes being out there. Ok with me, just leaves more for us. He does take a little ribbing sometimes.
