Yesterday kicked off the VA general gun season, and I went looking for a viable Dink-A-Thon entry, seeing as how the competition has started out with several fine entries.
Saw a nice 10-pointer ½ mile from where we park, in the field beside the road. As a matter of fact, it boldly walked across the dirt road in front of the truck. But, it was pre-dawn and I haven't finely tuned my "Roadkill" drill. I continued on down to the Farmer's house (where we park) and we talked about it. One hunting partner that was right behind me had seen the deer also, and we continued on down to the rendezvous point.
I hunted all day, seemingly absolutely surrounded by Does. No Dinks, and no Bucks. Believe me, I was looking for indication of a Dink-A-Thon-eligible buck.
Saw another nice Buck. On the way home. After dark. Beside the highway, eating.
