    Wind picking up here. It’s so much more relaxing sitting on the ground than in a tree. Though I do like the tree also. 648B9AE1-FB84-4128-9D18-F7E48EA25301.jpeg

    I missed a doe at 22 yards this morning. First deer in range for the season and I completely missed, shot over her back. What a complete let down feeling. My wife says I can't say any more negative things about myself, so i think I'll just chalk it up as experience and move on lol

    I have missed a doe and what would have been my biggest buck with a bow, about a 120-130" 8 point. Check your equipment, I was hitting 10" low at 25 yards.

    An absolutely insane ending to the morning sit. I've been watching the radar and the rain was getting closer so I decided to get down about 1230. I climb down and walk about 20ft and hear a bunch of branches breaking. I turn around just in time to see three bucks chasing a doe. They stop very briefly about 30yds from my stand and then take off-they stopped so briefly I really don't think I would've been able to get off a shot. They run the same direction I'm going to be walking out so I'm really watching close as I go out. I get about half way out and I see a buck crossing my path. I try to see clearly but there's to many trees. He sees me and runs away. I walk about another 100yds and in front of me there are 2 bucks on the trail that I'm walking out on. They are tooo far ahead of me to get a shot at them. They see me and bound away. I walk another 100yds or so and I'm looking to see if I might be able to see where they went. I look behind me and there's a another smaller buck standing there watching me. I put the scope on him but he's too small to shoot. We had a stare down for almost 10 minutes and then he left. Talk about a crazy morning. I'm out now and it's pouring!
