Yeah...when I drove passed the cabin to the driveway, I saw movement in Charlie's bedroom, and figured he was getting up....then there was no answer at the door...so I went knocking...I got in and we greeted one another and I went back to the car for something and here's what I was offered....

         

Yeah...just had to crash....but at least I was there.

Then about lunch I got up and got lunch....and to pic up where Charlie left off...  


I dropped Charlie off at his stand that Saturday afternoon and went to an area I was familiar with.  Kenny had moved the latter stand further up the narrowly wooded draw to about the middle of the property where there's a short 'bean break' in the timber.  From the break the timber started back up but only to make a fork of two narrower wood draws with a hidden pocket of beans.


GREEN = TREES

YELLOW = BEANS

GRAY = WEEDS

ORANGE = STAND

         

I'll have images up of the stand views in a bit....

That evening set the stage for what was to come....lots of deer sitings and encounters...as I saw TEN deer walk through that little gap that evening....just no holes to shoot through.....

They came through the gap and turned north feeding on leaves, beans and pin oaks.....

The events of the 1st evenings hunt had me pumped....made me think of my 1st hunt on the lease when I saw 11 deer the 1st hunt, most of them bucks...one I should have shot, another I would have shot the last day....and 8 out of the 11 in bow range.

I was pumped for the rest of the week for sure....back to pick up Charlie and see what he experienced that 1st evening.....

That first evening was a winner for sure. After going in to look things over and seeing a very nice eight point blast across the equipment trail my spirit was running high.

I actually saw deer from just about every direction from my chosen stand. It was just a matter of time and the weather at the time seemed just about perfect for what we had in mind.

Hell, we even had deer feeding on acorns in the road where a huge oak hung over the gravel. It would turn out that we were going to run short on acorns while we were there.
The good news is that the deer were hitting the bean fields with a vengence.

Though no candidates for the freezer or the taxidermist came close that first night it wouldn't stay that way for long.

We had a bite to eat after the hunt that we whomped up on the kitchen stove. I don't remember exactly what other gourmet ingredients were involved, but I'm pretty sure one of them was Spam.
   :D  
Kenny dropped in to visit as he did most every night of the hunt. His input and enthusiastic attitude were valuable and always welcome additions to our evenings.

We'd be up and at them early the next morning.

Kenny had dropped off a 4 wheeler so Terry and I made good use of it in getting around the property. The animals were used to it and it saved a lot of boot leather.

I dropped off at my stand without leaving a boot track more than 10 feet from the ladder. I like that. Terry slowed down just enough for me to step clear and with a whispered "good luck" he went putting off through the gap and over the hill to the east of my location.

After hooking the carabiner of my tether to the strap I'd attached to the tree I got busy arranging my gear.
A new Haversack from Teresa Asbell held all my goodies so I strapped it to the side of my stand where it would be handy.

Putting an arrow on the string of my bamboo longbow I attached a toothpick and rubber band to it for an arrow holder and hung the bow on a small hook that Terry had given me for the purpose.

I was so busy being efficient that I didn't notice the three deer feeding through the gloom toward my position.
