I had a FIRST time TREAT today !
My Son and Grandson came and hunted w/me this AM. The Grandson is the one I pictured in the 2016 Dinkathon where he killed his FIRST deer/buck w/his Dad's-Grandpaw's-Great Grandpaw's Rem 700 243 BDL.
Since I don't have ANY stands AT ALL, we walked slow and actually stalked thru some places. The deer weren't moving, I hunted till 9: AM before they joined me.
However - at 1 place we split up and they went around a thicket and I stayed and paralleled them on the other side. They jumped a BEDDED pair of deer. 1 was a forked horn and the other was DEER. My Son had a shot at the forky but it wasn't legal. I saw the deer running thru thin brush but really had no shot.
They're still doing at night. I don't know IF it going to change.
