droopy the deer made it another year.
« on: March 04, 2012, 06:18:40 PM »
Went to set my trail cam this morning and bumped into the deer I really wanted to get on camera.   He's within a few hundred yards of where I set the camera.   I first spotted this deer in 09 and have seen him every year since besides during hunting season.  I applied for the multi season tag this year just for a better chance at this deer.  I hope to have pics soon.

my problem is I have little time to hunt him during archery season do to the shortened early hunt and no late season in the area.  Then I'm out of town elk hunting for 2 weeks.  I'm praying for the multi season permit.  I've never killed a deer with anything but my bow but I have no problem with trying.

If I knew his neighborhood, I'd be a little obsessed with him too.  I'm guessing a powerline road somewhere. Now.. Find the swamp or the thickest nastiest brushy high knob in that area. Where would you go to hide? I mean really hide. He'll have multiple escape routes from that spot. Now find the next lowest knob that gets him out of the weather. Find another place that gets you out of weather coming from the oposite direction. Do your scouting right now. He's there. Smart Blacktail bucks are like pimps.  Never in the same bed two nights in a row.
