|
|
so the first day that i went out, oct. 3, i shot a small doe. Since then i have not seen a deer. Nothing, not at any range. Is it the curse again. Usually its having trouble killing a big buck. But to not see a deer? The ground is so torn up with tracks that you cant tell if the deer are coming or going.
Every time i think i have them figured out, i find out how much i dont know. This year the deer have me so confused, i dont even trust what i thought i knew.
Anyone have any ideas on how t figure this out. I dont need to shoot every deer i see, but i would like to at least see them! |

| ok guys, was at work tonight and just got done drag racing a buck for about a block. Nice large 6 pointer. Probably about 10 inch inside spread. Why cant i see them when i'm hunting. The city would have been mad if i would have bounced him off the front of the squad car. Oh well, we'll have to try saturday. |
