I've decided to start using my climber again and hunt a few other spots I have permission further east....I'm just not seeing good mature bucks where I have hanging stands.

I have to amend the above. The lockdown phase I think is on one of properties about an hour away. I came back to my land I bought this year and killed a buck I called dagger. He’s an 8 with a small dagger coming off his base, gave me a 21 yd shot and he decided to go for a swim in my pond after the shot. Lol It’s dark so this is the best pic I have at the moment. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/MpcTxDKG/84739-BB5-A099-4-B88-B7-E2-CC607-CB3-B1-A4.jpg)

Work and getting a 351-c .22 mag placed on my carry prevented me from getting out today... the plan for tom afternoon is to try a new spot with my climber.

My buck looks wet because well...he is. He took a dive in my pond. Glad I was able to retrieve him without having to swim. This is where I found him. Lol ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/K85sDpDN/877737-C1-6-BBE-46-F3-A5-B1-E9-C255-EAB6-D0.jpg)

Thx.
This coming Saturday is our gun opener and for the past 4 yrs in a row I’ve been fortunate enough to kill out with archery before gun starts, that’s when they act super skittish and almost disappear.
This year I can concentrate on helping the wife and daughter get their first deer.
My son is quite capable of doing it on his own so I’m putting him with my wife in a stand and I’m taking my daughter.
I’m gonna be gunlesss.
Lol.

Ok so my cousin had worse luck than me This picture was taken 10 yds in front of his stand this afternoon He was in the stand with his crossbow When it went to take his safety off it made a slight nose the deer buggered and bounded a few hops and he had no shot The deer slowly walked away He’s been after this piebald for 3 years He had the camera set up on a stump right in front of his stand Time stamp is off 1 hour ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/nMbZ9b32/jerry-pie.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/258qShb6/jerry-pie-2.jpg)
