What a morning in the woods. Today was the first day that I've been able to get out this season. I woke up late, jumped in the shower and got to the woods just before first light.
I was able to get to my tree with out scaring TOO many deer. Although, manage to bump a buck and 2 or 3 does out from under my tree. All morning I had constant chasing going on. Had a doe walk to 5 yrds from my tree. The arrows "tinkt" the seat of my tree stand, which put her on alert. She was quartering perfect. I held low drew and released. right over her back! I did manage to shave some hair! guess I didn't hold low enough.
The worse part of it was that I hit a rock with my broadhead and smashed the $#!^ out of it. About 10 mins later, I look behind me, and theres about a 15" wide 6 rummaging behind me. Watching him for awhile, I hear a loud BURRRRUP from in front of me. Glassing, I see buck raking the crap out of a sapling. When the buck stepped into the opening about 50 yrds away, I could see its 2 little spikes. I was dying! Someone must have told him that he was a big buck.
all totaled, I saw 11 different deer, 6 were bucks. All before 930 am. There was chasing going on all that time.
It was a great morning.
