Well, It has been a little frustrating trying to find were the deer have all gone. We are seeing a few but not like I am used to,There are rubs and scrapes around but the bucks are like ghost for some reason.Curt is such a good guy and a very good hunter but you all know that.

We thought we would split up last night to cover more ground so I dropped Curt off at the clearing and headed up to the ridge.There were turkeys every where when I pulled in the driveway so I decided to sit in the DB blind instead.

The turkeys were really talking up in the timber. I Heard some coming in from the left and it was a big group of mature toms.They came right in and gave me a 7 yard shot.  :D  

The big tom dropped like a rock as the arrow passed through him. A little high but it took him through the spine and he never moved when he hit the ground.

The other birds only spooked a little and one started to come over and see what was wrong with his buudy. Hey, I might get another shot, Man I wish Curt was here to see this.

I got all excited and forgot to pick a spot and shot right over his back.  :(  About that time the first bird flapped a little and they all started back like they do to stomp on him. They same bird was facing away at 7 yards I picked a spot on his spine and let here fly.

The shot was awsome and broke his back clean and he dropped right in his tracks to.  :archer:

Jeremy, Thanx again for the knife you made for me to give to Tracy...he loves it and it's sure is a work of "functional art". Hardly enough of a thank you for what he and his family are doing for me. But it's a start   :notworthy:  

I had a great morning on stand....it was cool 50 degrees with a consistant south wind. Saw five does and could have shot two of them. Just wasn't ready to give up my spot yet.Besides it was nice to have live decoys out there in front of me....

I'll get some more pix to Vance...thanx again bud

Thanx Vance   :thumbsup:  

 Those are the deer I spoke of earlier....those 2 sure gave me a great opportunity...but today was about enjoying the experience more than shooting....

How pretty are those sun soaked oak leaves....sometimes it's the little things......
