Its kinda funny how you get that feeling sometimes that you just know something is gonna happen. I have hunted long enough that I can sometimes reconize that feeling and, as I was walking in this evening I actually told myself, Im shooting something this evening I can feel it The sign in this spot is unreal right now. Im between two high wall strip pits that create a very handy pinch point, from there it gets nasty and the bedding starts. Behind me on a long gradule grade is a standing corn field. After settling in two mature Does show up but they are where they usually dont travel. I had one 40 yard shot op but turned it down. At this time my phone is vibrating in my pocket :D Its Siman08 and as soon as I told him of the Does, I look down and a 6 point is standing there looking for, where minutes before I tiped the can at the Does to try and get them closer. He stayed for 15 minutes and walked off. Now i get a text from Greg/mo and Hunsucker with some good news from them, Ill Greg tell of that Minutes later I here something where the 6 went into the thicket. It turnes out to be the Doe that I have dubbed the Highwall Hugger. I have two stands 30 yards apart and everytime I hunt the other ,she comes in but stays on the very extreme edge of the High wall and If I fling an arrow and get a pass through its good by arrow into the strip pit below so I usually pass on her. Well tonight I opted for the other stand, and as usual she came in but was just almost to the High wall, I had a shot at 32 yards. The luminoc lit the way and found its mark. She made it 30 yards before collapsing. I WAS going to stay in the tree and hunt for horn until dark, but I got to thinking that If I seen no shooters I would be dragging her out about the time one of the Big boys are filtering out around Dark, So i climbed down and got her out before I may have ruined a Good spot. She is a heavy weight, and I was drained for the pics after dragging her 150 yards for pics.
She's a fatty, congrats on a very nice doe Crick! Gotta love it when you get "that feeling" and you know something is gonna happen in a particular spot. Lots of good meat there.
Congratulations Dan. Nice shot on a nice nanny. Was waiting on the story and pics since your text. Great job.
You may be El Dinko, but that doe ain't! Man, musta been the weekend to whack the nannys! Congrats man!! Sweet doe!
