Love is in the air!
« on: October 27, 2011, 04:30:00 PM »
I woke up just a bit before 7 a.m. and this is what I wake up to! The treeline begins 103 yards from my back porch.

No, no scent was put on 'em.  I just think this 4 pointer must be a youngin with no self respect, and has got "the itch" bad.  

And yes, that's a ladderstand I use for practice in the background... as I shoot these targets (along with the 20 or so targets in the back woods) often.

Is it just me, or is that deer lighting a cigarette in the last photo?

Funny.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Huntmaster80/Adam,

A doe and her yearling fawn (still on the teet... as I saw them a few days ago) came out of the woods just after the 4 pointer finished his "first round".  Long story kept short, the momma and baby saw and hauled out of there in quick fashion.

Then, the 4 pointer went to intoduce himself to the Reinhart target. But, I guess there was no attraction there, and he walked away... dejected.
