Well I had a fantastic spot picked out, but unfortunately to get to it you had to cross two "creeks". Before it wasn't an issue but after all the torential downpours these creeks had phased into small rivers, but we were men so we got wet boots and moved on. Got to the spot hunkered down and waited. Eventually saw a doe and two yearlings, but we need something with head gear. Then we all decide our clothes could use a shift in the dryer so we run home to change. First wringing the water out of them....... I originally thought that by doing muzzleloader hunting I might miss out on some of the crazy rain I always find in November, but mother nature plays by her own rules. So long story short go back again, this time take the long way around the now rivers and get back into the spot. Well this time my brother sees two does and I see another doe and yearling. Still wishing for something we could shoot but better than getting soaked in the rain and seeing nothing.
So here is my question to all you master deer hunters out there. If you were seeing all these deer would you stay in there looking for a buck or try a new spot considering everything there seems to be does? Also thinking next year I need a waterproof blind
By the way hunting Blacktail so throw all those whitetail strategies out the door
Hope you guys are having fun in the rain!
