Last day of VT gun season buck only. I'm out with my bow for a couple hours. New place. Posted private land I got permission for. Been seeing many deer coming out at last light but they were too far away to tell what they were. Put up a stand. Next weekend starts late archery and muzzleloader.
Not going out today, probably in the morning. Last evening, deer 0, Opossum 2. Had a doe followed by a nice 8 pt come out into CRP about 150 yds out. Tried to grunt the buck closer but would not come. Bad calling. Had another pair the opposite direction about 200 yds out, on the move heading for another draw and corn field. After super Mrs. spotted a Opossum under her bird feeders. Got 'em. Later saw another about the same place. Another one down. That makes about 6 so far this fall/early winter. Good Eagle food.
Ha ha ha, I suppose that's a few yards outside my max range as well! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Bowhunting.com Forums mobile app
Our oldest boy and I are in the blind for the last youth hunt of the season. We have one more chance next weekend, but It is does only! Sent from my SM-G930V using Bowhunting.com Forums mobile app
Things just picked up. We have about 20 minutes of light. 4 small bucks and a doe with 2 fawns are all here. All still out of range, but our boy is enjoying the show! Sent from my SM-G930V using Bowhunting.com Forums mobile app
I saw 15 deer tonight. I wait for this time of year each season. Early season is dead but cold weather and snow means we start seeing deer. I could have jumped on a spike horn he was so close. I also saw a 4 point. The spike was chasing every deer that came into the field. It was funny to watch. That’s 2 evenings in a row that I’ve seen young bucks chasing. 1 week left so I’m hoping one of the bigger bucks step out. I’m not too picky, but I’m looking for something a little bigger than a 1.5 year old.
Well, they never would get close enough. We still have next weekend. Sent from my SM-G930V using Bowhunting.com Forums mobile app
Mike the guy who posted in the thread all season, then shot a deer, told everyone he shot it, and then never posted a followup to anything. So I was relating your type of 12 pointer post to something that Mike would do.
Nothing else for me. Other then the 6p came back out. Pulled 3 cards on my way out, excited to see what’s still about.
I wonder if mike is still following this thread? he is probably still thinking of how to tell us he was lying about really shooting a deer!
He might be following just to scared to Comment. Lol. I think he was the one who won the trophy photo contest on BHOD a couple of weeks ago also. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
