Both Friday and Saturday it was over 70 degrees here. The deer just ain't moving. All year, my spot has been totally void of does. Earlier in bow season, I had a yote hanging around, but couldn't get a shot. I'm convinced the does aren't there because of it. Saturday morning it came through running full tilt, carrying the mail. I tried to stop it, but he probably didn't even hear me. I took it out at 50 yards, quartering away. Lucky shot. I guess I didn't get him good enough because it got up and slipped into the cedar thicket. Tried to track it, but lost the blood trail. I had a lot of good blood and hair though. I might not have led it far enough and probably got gut.
This weekend is the start of ML season. Hopefully with the cooler temps and "dog gone", maybe the deer will start moving. The only problem is that where there's one yote, there's probably more.
