Sorry guys, busy day in the shop.......

....in strolls a tank of a buck! Of course I'd now filled my buck tag as you've read. I was huntin' does and hogs. So, shootin' this beauty wasn't even a consideration. But I immediately thought of my little buddy Skyler, and how I wished he was in this tree right now instead of me. I just hoped he was having a good hunt and hoped he was staying warm!!

 Within a minute a-Lot of deer started to show up. Including a few nice big does.....

Curt that's a great shot of Sky! wish we had one of Don that last morning, when he said he was so tired he was gonna wear his safety belt even if he hunted on the ground.  I feel asleep on the plane before it took off and didn't wake up till we hit the runway back in Virginia.  I wasn't even hunting.  Guess hunting with the camera can wear you out as well.
