Well the " fat lady" has sang, again no deer seen tonight.
And not one shot taken this year, I didn't even have a chance. Again congrats to all the guys who got it done this year and some of you several times. Thanks men for sharing your season with me , with all the ups and downs.

I went out this morning and witnessed the most beautiful sunrise ,a dusting of snow with the sun coming up like a fire ball over the swamp that had completely frozen over last night .A little while latter the snow started and a button buck came in and ate green leaves off the low bushes . Bow season seemed to fly by even though I hunted every chance I had . I'm already thinking about next year......

I thought I was going to finish big when at 3pm a high racked, big chested 8pt closed to 25yards of my stand but he wouldn't give me the 3 steps I needed to get him clear of small limbs. He turned and walked away after a couple of minutes and I tried the grunt tube then but he just kicked into high gear out of there after a couple of grunts. Smokepole tomorrow and I'm looking forward again Nashoba to bunnies. Good luck and be safe all.

Congrats Marvin.

Nice job to all who got one so far. I had a couple close calls myself this week. Not see much for bucks but I have a doe tag I might try to fill with my bow.

Hey Chuck, check your PM's and email. Trying to get my phone number to you.

Congrats to all who scored..I didn't see so much as a tail during the bow season. I hope to be out on Tuesday with the bow but I know the are I hunt was probably a shooting gallery today so the later season has never been productive there.

Deer were active early today.

Tomorrow, a  south wind and a good Funnel, Hopefully my arrow will find its mark.

Had a very interesting morning. Close encounter with a very respectable 8 point this morning. Twenty five yards was as close as he would come in. A little out of reach for me on live animals. Three does as well . I couldn't remember if I left my steps in last year so I opted for the pac seat. This buck freshened up a scrape fifteen yards from the tree I should have been in. Nice clear morning. Good luck brothers

Had my 18th sit this afternoon......not a living thing was seen......no birds, squirrels or anything. My enthusiasm is fast approaching rock bottom.........

Yesterday Morning I had a  deer coming in at 7:30. It bedded down in some thick brush up hill from me.  Then at 10:00 it got up and was walking away. I opted to pass up the shot    ;)   because the deer was 60 yards and in the brush. Heck I couldn't even identify it. next year I will practice that shot more.   :dunno:  lol  

It was however a beautiful morning. I was happy to be out with bow in hand.
Relax,

Ron, you're not alone. My last 6 times out I have not seen anything other than birds.

Out last night nothing moving. It was a strange weekend from everybody I talked to nothing was really moving anywhere.  I did see a doe and fawn from my dining room table yesterday morn so I didn't go skunked!!!

Sat in my ground blind this morning but only for a couple of hours. Temps in the 20's with 25mph swirling wind.  Nothing moving.

Im going for a walk in the Pinebush tomorrow to see if I can line up on a nanny. Hope the ticks don't take me down. Good luck to you fellas still hunting, good things can still happen even with the guns going off.

Izzy.... Knock on wood but I have been in the pine bush 2 dozen times this year from July on and have yet to bring any hitchhiker home. I spray my clothes with Permythren and it seems to have worked so far.

Good luck in the PB. I have been seeing deer there just nothing I have had a  shot at.

I will however get a look at a new spot this weekend. I have been scouring over Google maps and have seen deer head toward an area just have to step in there for a closer look.  I think it can be a winner.

Come on Saturday morning.   :campfire:
Relax,
