I'm hoping for an ethical shot.

I don't like looking for wounded deer, lots of rattlesnakes and skunks here. Cactus too


Y'all get any action yet? Deer have been around feeders all season long for us, even with acorns around.

Bowhunting I've had much more relaxed and better luck away from feeders, they are nervy around them it seems. OTOH when I quit keeping track of bow kills at over 100 hogs and deer, a lot of them were around feeders. Just had to know how to make it work. Found it worked much easier from ground blinds than tripods generally speaking. For us in the hill country.

I still love looking for deer. Its one of the most fun parts of the puzzle. But with a dog now its pretty easy. But I enjoyed following the sign and leading to an animal. Cactus, snakes and all. Never can say we saw a skunk while trailing.
