Northeast Louisiana Doe Down
 
Well, got my first deer of the season on the 25th. Got into my stand around 6:30, and could see 2 deer down at the end of one of my shooting lanes, but couldn't see enough to make a shot, it being still semi dark. Saw another doe around 7:30 and this deer is living a charmed life. No matter which way she moved, she always managed to have her vitals behind the legs of my feeder. I saw a buck walk through about an hour later, but he moved through so quick, no time to get a shot. Then this doe walks out coming right at me down my lane, then walks into the brush. So, I kept the scope on that lane and about a minute later, she walked back out, and gave me a quarter away shot. I pulled the trigger on my .30-06, looked up, and she was gone. Started tracking her and only found a piece of bloody tissue at the spot where I shot her. So, I started walking in circles around it and picked up a couple flecks of blood, circled some more but only found 2 more spots. However, at the last spot of blood, I stopped and looked around and saw her piled up in the brush, with a large amount of blood and tissue on the ground. First deer and hopefully not the last of the year!

Pretty good actually. Down in the mid to southern part of the state there have been some good size monsters taken, but the biggest antler wise I've seen on this property so far has been a 9 point. We're pretty overrun with doe's so, getting a doe for meat usually isn't going to be a problem :)
