Nice story and pictures. Would be nice to see a smile on your face though to culminate your efforts and the end of a season.

Beautifully written.  I also have gotten complacent in hunts that I figured I had "wired", only to be frustrated by an "easy" doe hunt.  Deer have a way of restoring our humility by surprising us with their elusiveness and adaptability.  I suppose that's why we still have them around to hunt- they are the furthest thing from a dodo bird, that's for sure.

Have you considered a career as an outdoors writer?

Well done :tup:....Kind of reminds me of my elk hunt this year..Takes a couple good knock downs to put you in your place and help you remember what the hunt is really about.

Very nice write up and a respectable buck.  The facial expressions in your pictures do a good job of summing up your feelings about the hunt (and your future hunts).

Sundance,

Thanks for the reminder about the importance of keeping our humility. Great contribution to the Forum, and a nice buck, too!
