    Here’s a better pic of the buck. I’m not sure if he’s bedded about 20 yards behind me or not. Does finally moved off.

    Opening morning dead quiet, bright moon, zero wind, ,lots of dew........no animals save some birds squawking.
    Now last night our porch got tore up and I was awakened 2x's by very strange pounding sounds out back in the woods. Need to go down and see if my old coupe blind has damage. The bear's been very active around our upper lands....field corn is 50ft off our drive.

    Dead this morning. The only deer I saw was in the field on the way in the dark.

    Nice bud! Processing your own deer is way better. No need to wait for a butcher, and you know, without question, you get your own deer!
    I'm in the process of making my first skin right now! While I wasn't thinking about doing this when I skinned it, my girls said they wanted a deer fur to compliment their recently acquired rabbit furs. Hopefully, it turns out decent despite the couple of holes in the skin. If it turns out good, I'll be more careful when when skinning from now on. [​IMG]

    Mikey, little ones are just as much if not more work if you are really picky on taking off sinew and fat…. Congrats on the doe, bro!

    Back at the camp no cell service. Seen 11 does only 3 in range came to full draw but couldn’t get a clear shot. I’m planning on going back there in the morning. I’m hunting a creek crossing on the back of a soybean field this afternoon.
