The shot placement we all would love to have. NICE!

Oh I forgot the pic with bailey pointing to the ground, well I am fasinted by the forensic sciences and bailey has to endure countless sceince shows on the subject. LOL well Bailey was on the trail and says, "Dad I remember the tails of the blood drops points the direction the deer run". WOW I dont think I learned that little trick till I was 19 or 20! smart kid.....she got that from momma LOL

The pic of the tree came through and some of the deer so I've added them to my original post, so go back and eyeball the pics again. (BTW Your welcome Cleve, and it's still really my pleasure.)

Also this one of Bailey's take on the "Job Well Done" came through - I love it!:

Great job Cleve - I have a 20 year old daughter in the next room who helped me trail 16 years ago !! on a similar trail. Great times.

Had two doe walk on my left today about 50 yards away. They really stood out in the snow!!

They never got closer and I never saw anything else. Even the squirrels were laid up today.

So far, no white stuff on the South Coastal area here, not that we need any. Raining this AM.

[ber643]

Ooops - I take it back, it started up here about 20 or 30 minutes ago and already has at least some white stuff on almost everything outside. I probably won't get out until the last three days of the season now (Thurs., Fri, and/or Sat.

I went this morning and saw nothing, its all or nothing whens its like this. when this storm breaks they will go nuts! we have 6"ish on the ground here in chowan, Bertie had 8"ish when I left there about 9 this morning and still comin down HARD here.

[broketooth]

[nc recurveman]

we have 8"-10" on the ground at the moment and weather doofus says we may top a foot! going huntin when the wife gets home from the hospital in the a.m. cant wait!

[ber643]

Well, I had a nice (not so nice) cold settle in on me Sat. night/Sun. AM so depending on whether the cold gets "better", or I do, first will determine if i get out again before the close of season or not. Durn common colds are not the friends of old timers - LOL.

[broketooth]

[Bud B.]

Sorry to hear you're sick Bernie.

[Don Batten]
