So yesterday when I got out of the stand at lunch, I went to an area that I had foot scouted last week. I had wanted to go back and hang a camera and a stand the next day but then I got sick and it rained hard for about 3 days. I managed to get over there and hang a cell c camera yesterday and this is what I got last night. Not a giant but I'd send an arrow his way. Forgive the pic quality. This place is a swamp edge and I guess the cold temps last night right next to all that water caused the fog. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
No go this morning....bad night,and feeling off has gotten worse. Perfect out too...cold, dark, no rain, light N breeze. Hubby doing paper work from home...I may have to bundle up and hide in a blind...lol
Good luck if you are out! I saw four does feeding in the grass on the side of the highway yesterday at 12:38pm while returning from fishing.
Just after first light the 8 point I have on camera walked by out of range. I probably wouldn’t have shot had he been in range. He’ll be lucky to break 110” and if I shot him I’d only be able to shoot does until gun season opens on the 13th. I don’t want to hit the peak of the rut with only doe tags again unless it’s because I killed a big one. Just heard something to my left. That doe fawn is back feeding at 30 yards. Either she’s recently orphaned or momma is pinned down by a buck and it’s a bit early for that.
I shoulder shot my buck last year at 12 yards. No shot in the woods is easy my friend. Don’t under sell yourself Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Way to go, brother! Heart shots leave quite the trail! Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Had to get out of my spot. I couldn’t quit coughing. I took some medicine before I left and brought cough drops with me but nothing worked so I left. Going to try some mucinex and take a bottle water with me and try to sit through the afternoon on an oak flat.
Traveling up I 95 and i realized how much the Virginia woods have changed just here in the last 3 or 4 days. Complete green to now half the trees have changed color. It's time to kill.
I just realized I’m not able to hunt Halloween again this year. 2 day youth hunt is Oct 30 and 31. Glad I checked the book again. No hunting for me this weekend Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
