A 3 month huntin story

kennym · October 22, 2021, 03:41:43 PM

Skipped this morn, 0 wind and that never seems to work for me. Feel like I'm in an ever widening pool of human stink .

Goin to back of my place tonite. Wind is supposed to be right and maybe this one will come by ...

Neighbor guy's son may have gotten that one tonite. They had no blood and are waiting til morn...

I had an interesting sit but no shots presented. My stand and wind direction worked well as all the critters were downwind 6 to 12 yards away...

First off was a 40 mph rabbit at 8 yards with a 40 mph coyote right behind... Then about a minute later a bigger yote came thru just downwind of the chase a couple yards. No shots due to thick limbs on that side.

Tried squeaking them back in but no dice. Not all that hungry I guess...

Then at dark I could hear deer coming , popping acorns , agonizingly slow to get there. Dark when they did, so I sat there til they were quiet for a bit and came home.

No hunt tomorrow due to plans, and 100% chance of rain Sunday, so Monday it is!

Just found this. That's a good deer Kenny. Go get him. It's good to know I'm not the only nut that sits in a tree all fall chasing dreams.

May not be any hunting for a few days , todays tornado took a neighbors place completely out. So have offered to help with cleanup .

Roy from Pa · October 25, 2021, 03:56:44 AM

Sorry to hear that Kenny.

Hope they are all ok.

kennym · October 25, 2021, 07:40:39 AM

No injuries that I've heard, but a LOT of cleanup...

kennym · October 26, 2021, 07:56:54 PM

Well this week bombed, 2 days of storm cleaning, now 3 days of rain forecast.

Maybe Saturday, bucks are following does a little , bout time to try an all dayer.

Rain is sposed to be done by noon Friday, so will be back at it. Bro has a new stand spot scoped out(he got rained on looking) , so if it lets up sometime today for a bit, we will move one there.

Ya skeered yer gonna melt?

kennym · October 28, 2021, 08:47:36 AM

Yup, that would be a mess ...

Enjoying the read along Kenny. Good luck!

kennym · October 28, 2021, 12:15:06 PM

Eric, I sent you an email concerning the order!

We must be crazy(so my wife says) but we went in a light to medium drizzle and moved a stand. Supposed to rain til tomorrow morn, so scent we left will hopefully be gone.

About 5 trails in shooting distance, good cover , good entry/exit down sandy ditch bottom . 4' diameter scrape in timber we are in so high hopes.

Hope springs eternal from a bowhunters breast... Don't remember who said that!

kennym · October 28, 2021, 12:19:56 PM

Took this one bout 40 yards from there, now why did we move that stand???

That was the biggest bodied deer I've taken, didn't get him weighed and have regretted that ever since.

Had a head like a Hereford bull...

Good luck kenny. I had good sightings in the pouring rain at the north farm on the backside of the wooly.

kennym · October 28, 2021, 02:10:05 PM

It should be good but windy tomorrow, after a couple days of rain, they should be on their feet!!
