My Spot This Evening*UPDATED*
« on: October 20, 2012, 08:43:00 PM »


Trying to get a crack at one of the good bucks near my house. Playing the wind, picking a new spot everytime out. This Silent Stalker Green worked pretty good, a couple of trespassers walked by at about 25 yards and never saw me. No deer though...

I think they were just innocently over on our side of the fence line. A man and woman, not hunting. So I let them live.   :biglaugh:

I would never do it, but I was fantasizing about shooting an arrow into the tree ahead of them...

Looks really good!  Love that camo...no camo/camo.  I hope to get some for Christmas.  I've been dropping some not so subtle hints around here.

...and to my right. Even the neighbors call this place "Bloody Ridge". My son and I have killed 16 deer from this spot. Nothing to shoot tonight though.

Ha! I bet "Band-Aid" ridge has a story to tell!My Uncle Jack named Bloody Ridge. He used to say "By mid October I quit going back there! Roger has gut piles and blood all over that damned place, can't walk it's so slippery"

I miss the old curmudgen.
