I'd say you were on target the first time....broken off and died of infection. We found several that died of fighting like that over the years. Doesn't take as much of a hole as you would think, if the pedicles get torn up some with some punctures around them they can get infected and die. Usually found them in mid Dec to mid Jan. Seems like the infection takes that long to run em down.

I found a heavy antler a few years back with a chunk of skull on it , had a bunch of pics of the deer but none ever again. I always wondered if he lived thru that...


And I was happy there were no bugs, not even snow fleas... :biglaugh:
Stay sharp, Kenny.

Toe warmers are one of the greatest hunting inventions ever.

Quite true, and I have a big box of em, but my feet hadn't been cold yet this year. Figured global warming would take care of me...  :laughing:

Last night I donned my sapper jacket and leafy britches and went in... Actually went in , fixed my spot and then put my gear on.

Found what I thought was a good spot, and it was. First doe went by at 20, even looked straight at me. Second doe came to 15 head on and decided I didn't belong, so she stomped, head bobbed, and I waved her off.  Unfortunately, she went a different direction than she came. 

Yup, you guessed it, right down thru where I figured the buck would come from.  A few minutes later I saw the buck angling past me at 200 yds. No binos needed to see that white rack!  LOL, just another doe encounter!!
Stay sharp, Kenny.

Alright, alright, I saw 14 squirrels...  :laughing:

No deer, but silhouetted about 20 in a bunch on the way out in a beanfield with wheat planted into it. :saywhat:

Back to feed patterns.
I can afford to shoot most any bow I like.  And I like Primal Tech bows.

Gonna get cold but no perfect wind in forecast.

May have to take a calculated risk in a few days when the cold hits...

We have one weekend left of general season here.  At least in the county we are in.  The two weeks of doe and spike season.  But we don't shoot young deer and spikes generally are. 
I still have a buck tag but with two Texas deer and three deer from Missouri in the freezer I have the option of being pretty selective on what buck that tag goes and honestly I haven't seen one the last six weeks that will do it.
I'll take another doe to donate and hope the pigs come back around soon.
Good luck Kenny!

We have 3-5 " of snow Saturday and cold.  Don't look like the wind I need but I will have to probably try it anyway, the beans will go fast...
Stay sharp, Kenny.
