What a season you had Jim.  So much time in the woods, so many deer seen, and so many "so close yet oh so far" encounters.
This thread has been a highlight here for months on end, and your dedication to it is sure appreciated.  I know how much work it is to post so often and to do it with pictures - outstanding!!  
I wish that last minute success could have put a great ending to it, but that didn't diminish a thing.  I can see the smile of contentment on your face, knowing that this season was a HUGE success!  :notworthy:    :notworthy:

   :campfire:  

I hope to meet you one day when I move back to WI and share a cup of coffee and stories in your Yurt.

Thanks guys,  you are all very welcome. It was fun to do ,I was just hoping no body was getting bored with it!!

Its hard to believe with as many deer a sI have so close that it was so hard to get decent shots this season. But that's Trad hunting and that's why we love it so much!

I can't wait for 2013!  If we find some good sheds I'll post them for you to see

Just counting in the one photo, there were 3 more  deer in the plot than I saw all year.   :rolleyes:   That's Oct. 1st to mid December, just incredible, your hard work on the farm has paid off in spades!!   :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:    :notworthy:

Thanks Ron

One of the things I need to do is to convert a few plots to clover. That will give the deer something early to feast on when they will need it most. right now they are fat but with the numbers of deer hitting the food they might exhaust it well in advance. I think that one acre on top that I put on the flat part and was too far to shoot to will become clover for sure.

Thanks again for a great ride.  I look forward to seeing what you do to the farm, and to read your adventures next year.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
