Thanks guys

This is one of my favorite seasons of the year and I always try to save a tag for it. Normally we all get together in a nice group of people and put on some drives. I had an opportunity at 7 doe in one bunch on the first day, but I was waiting for a better shot, and I waited too long. In reality, if I'd pulled the trigger my hunt would have been over then, but I just didn't like the shot so I didn't take it.

This deer, I shot hunting alone and knowing the route they took after watching them a few nights in a row. Sad part is there was a nice buck and even larger one (one was a small 14"- 8 point and the other MUCH larger) travelling through every other. It was coming down to the wire, so I decided I wouldn't hold out on either bucks and just shoot a doe if the opportunity presented iteself. Like clockwork, here they come...... and the rest of the story is now cut up in my freezer

I suppose I still have one day, but the odds of me making it out are pretty slim.
