She has sung

Enjoyable last morning hunting with a fresh blanket of snow saw 2 deer a button and a 6 pt I could have killed both
I had 2 close encounter one with the Turk on Oct 29th and one yesterday with a big 8pt both between 30-35 yds but no shots
I could have killed truck loads of lessor deer but I need to be happy when I walk up on a kill not ho hum .

The quest for Turk will continue with the gun starting tomorrow I've said it before I am always dissapointed when archery ends as gun season brings out the knucklehead brigade
It becomes more luck than matching wits after the shots start to fly

The buck from this morning

I'm not that superstitious, but he better watch out. An old Indian saying is that killing a piebald or albino brings bad Mojo. eek

Good luck tomorrow with gun season, hopefully the "Walkies" aren't walking around too much and spooking all of the deer. Our gun season starts on the 24th.

We heard all your babble about this before I'd whack the crap out of that buck any day, wished the piebald I was after didn't get killed last year
BTW you planning on attending the hog hunt in March?

Don't feel bad Dan. You have standards and you stuck by them. I, for one, respect that. Besides, there's always late season and with all the standing corn and soybeans that got left I'm thinking it could be a good one this year. Are you planning to hunt Ohio or PA this year?

For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

Had my best opening day in NY ever. 24 deer, 11 bucks. This one and 3 other buck chased a doe right under me at 12:45. Amazing what a hot doe (or 2) will do for you.
Stay after them Dan. Gun season started a week early so there's still hot does getting chased hard.
