Semi live snow day "Behind the house hunt"
« on: December 09, 2017, 03:02:00 PM »
It's our last day of rifle season. Going to try near the house today. I live in a somewhat suburban area with a few acres to hunt. I was out 2 days ago and saw 7 deer, one was a fork horn (must have 3 per side) I have a doe tag too.  I'm not sure if I can post from the stand but will take photos. It's snowing now. It should be a quiet sneak to the stand. Deer are bedded within 100 yards of the stand.
It's a good 150 yards from the living room to the tree stand. It looks like Molly the tracking dog wants something to track.
Here goes!
     
     
Going with the Kanati, AD trads and 3 blade VPA.

Made it to the stand without slipping diown the hill in the snow .  It is quieter than usuall. The road isnt busy and the snow muffles. Passed one set of deer tracks between me and. The house

Yep, I really like that stuff....have the jacket, and vest.  Great for the northwoods but now, here in South Carolina thinking I prolly won't need it.

The first deer i saw is in the upper left 1/4 of the photo. I realize it is hard to see. Distance 70 yards. There were 2 deer. They were not ready to come out. A neighbor walked dogs nearby and these two deer layed low.

The dot in the upper right 1/4 of the photo is a legal buck crossing our pasture at 200 yards. The last deer I saw today.
