Hanging out in our field a little bit ago with 3 does.

Nice inspiration

I look forward to this week every year. This thread is making me wish I still had a tag  got lucky the first Monday of season. But nothing gets me going like blacktail but hunting. Shot one that was 170lbs just meat and bones hanging in 2020, would have probably never seen him if it wasn't for the last week of October, he was an old boy. Good luck to those still out there.

Haven’t seen the activity like I did last year at this time, didn’t see a single deer today but didn’t hunt long, gotta keep the generator going since we lost power at 5 yesterday.  Have Thursday and Friday off, it has to be on by then!  Then, my dads special permit starts Nov 1-10 for the white river buck tag.

Ratted in a small 2x about 3pm... My Dad would've taken him... But he held up at 24 yards in the alders and never gave a shot... Stared our direction for a few then turned and headed back into the big timber...
