Blackie down
« on: November 17, 2014, 06:06:33 AM »
I took a snow (ice) day on Friday. Put my daughter down for a nap and ran up on the hill for a quick late hunt. I told my wife that I planned on spotting a little buck to fill my tag. Well it wasn't long and I put a small forky in my binos. He was chasing a doe so I knew I could close the distance as he was gonna be pre-occupied.
As I was closing the distance I kicked a different doe out. She was only 40-50 yards in front of me. I thought it was all over until I put my binos on her. She didn't seem to mind me, then I caught movement on the other side of her. I swear this buck came out of a hole in the ground! I panned this little clear cut 8 times before I seen a deer!
Well, after about 5 minutes of heart thumping excitement, the Doe started feeding from right to left and the buck was in tow.
I dumped him at 20yds. It was a great day to be in the woods on Friday afternoon! There ended up being 3 doe's and 2 bucks in that little clear cut!

It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

Sarcasm: The ability to insult stupid people without them realizing it. 

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.

Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans.

Congrats on a fine buck
