If you paid much attention to the Live in Stand thread y'all know I killed a doe this morning..thought I'd share a story and share a pic if I can figure it out. First time hunting this farm this year. Pulled down the lane early this morning to see a buck and a doe standing in my parking spot. Good start eh! I get dressed cross the creek and stop to spray my boots down with a can of buck bomb..more to cover my tracts on the way in. I walk to my stand and spray down the area again and up the tree I go. Soon after daylight walking my same trail a good looking 7 pointer. I figure 2.5yrs old. He hangs around a bit where I've sprayed the buck bomb and moves on behind me. A solid half hour passes and I just so happen to look behind me to take a look..he's still around rubbing a tree with all he has..he was excited for something. A small basket 8 soon joins him. I took pictures of both bucks. They move on and out.
Not to long later as I'm scanning my area I catch movement to my right. Just what I was hoping for, 2 does. The lead doe a tad bit bigger. She walks into my 25yrd shooting lane and I sent a bolt flying. She bucks, and takes off crashing. The came to rest about 40yrd to my front. A good size doe, and a good start to the season. Has a lot of fun today. The wife and kids helped track and drag. She's on to the processor.
