I went this morning to another spot that I have never scouted before. SO not knowing the lay of the land I trekked into the woods. I was following an old road and as I came down a slope just out of the high grass I could see another trail intersecting ahead. And there right where the to trails met stood a doe! Broadside, presenting a perfect shot!!!!!
A perfect shot for someone who was ready! Not me I was holding my little chair in one hand, but I did have an arrow nocked in the bow but couldn't drop the chair or she would have bolted so we stood staring at each other. She stomped a few times and I tried to remain still.....then she screamed and bolted. BUSTED. Turns out the trail she was on is a pipleine. I was hoping for that from the google maps. No luck after that but now I know to stalk up to that area slower.
I also broke my stool! SO now I need a new one!
So far its been a great hunting season soon it will be harvesting!

Opening Day
Well opening day was Sept 15th. I went in late to work that day. I learned a lot in the woods that morning. One deer crashed into the woods screaming like I never heard, (since I have never hunted that makes sense). So I got to see that one and then I heard another one which according to the internet was a buck! It was exciting!
