Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Birth of a deer camp

We had to run to the little country store about 7 miles from camp on Saturday, We took a few pictures along the way.









We found that the deer tracks were the heaviest in the cedar trees so I set up in an old ground blind in the cedars Sat evening.

The sky was clear at night and the moon is still throwing a lot of light so it's very easy for the deer to get around at night. If we felt like pushing a little harder we could have kicked deer up out of bedding areas but we're looking for better shooting opportunities this early in the muzzle loader season. Walking or preferably standing targets would be much better than big white tails waving at us from running deer.

I think things will be much better next weekend as far as the hunting goes.
