First thing this morning I had a pretty red fox chasing chippers at 20 yards. A little later I spyed movement headed my way soon I saw a nice doe and yearling bearing down on me, the momma stopped at 18 yards and the wind swirreled, she froze. I waited and waited but finally my mind said screw it try and draw about the time my hand was reaching my face she spun and left.
A little while latter I was sitting on my new torges seat when BAM one of my knotes pulled through and I fell to the earth lol. I was fixing my seat when again movement. I looked up in time to see two nice bucks go running by. That was weird. Soon I figured out why. For an hour I heard crashing and banging so I snuck over to find a guy with his dog cleaning a tree from the creek bed. I watched him for a while when he looked up. He must have speed me cause he grabbed his dog and left leaving his coat hanging from a tree limb. Must have been scary seeing a fat guy in a guillie suit watching you.
This afternoon I was sneaking through the woods when I spotted a bedded deer. I started my stalk at about 80 yards soon I closed the gap to 30 that's when I spotted his horns. Where I hunt a buck must have three points on one side. I crept closer. At 18 yards I could see he was a forky on one side and a spike on the other RATS!!! I sat and watched him for awhile while he stretched and cleaned himself and then rubbed a tree. After he moseyed off I moved on. Later that evening while walking a bowl I had a doe and fawn pop up at 12 yards. They looked right through me but appeared agitated just then my arrow fell off the string. They worked their way around me and when I looked back guess who was chasing them? The little three point from earlier hahaha no wonder they where agitated. What a great day!!! Love my guillie suit and new torges seat this should be a fun year I really wanna do it from the ground.

Good job 2Nocks and the successful hunters.

I'm taking my bow for walks this year but not really hunting - but don't feel sorry for me!  I have five lambs, 15 chickens, five turkeys and a quarter of a young Angus bull in the freezers.  

Just don't need the meat!

Be safe out there guys - and enjoy the NY woods.

I set up for s quick afternoon hunt on an 8 acre property down the road. I have a few stands at the back of the property but the 2 fruit trees in the front are loaded with apples and pears. I found 2 heavy trails coming out of the woods towards them. I quickly used my pole saw to trim a few lanes and slipped up the tree with my climber. Around 6, two does came from the other side of the field to hit the apples. A few minutes later, the lead doe headed my way and tried to pass 10 yards  behind my tree. She paused and my arrow was gone. I made a perfect shot and watched her pile up in less than 3 seconds.

Good shooting guys and keep the stories and pics coming!  

I haven't been out since opening our weekend in the Moose River Plains with Ray and Izzy.  Between work and building a cement block wall at home I haven't been out.  Maybe over Columbus Day week end I can get in the woods.
