Tonight, right at dusk, passed on a spike for the second time in the last month.   Had him broadside at twenty five yards, wasn't sure if it was a doe or spike.  As he walked under my stand I could see his devils horns.  He stopped ten yards away presenting another broadside but I let him walk.  I hope I'm rewarded for my patience but in the past when I have chosen not to take the shot the deer Gods have dumped on me.  Oh well....... 

Tick tick tick.......

It won't be the first time I've had tag soup.  However, I'm the confident type and I have no doubt that I'll score.  To be continued......

Best of luck, Gerry.

I know I'm bad, but not that bad.  Climb too high to fall asleep (b/w 25 & 30 feet). 

First day of rifle- went across the street  at 11 AM and was done bout 11:10 AM-Doe and a skipper stepped out - took the eater on purpose and by choice.
 Horns for the rest of the year -lol. --Got bout 6 tags left but one more is plenty.
  Ct.--the Deer State

Had to work for them but I took a small buck on Sunday and a nice doe Tuesday morning.  I still have doe tags to fill but really don't need to as two in the freezer is enough. 
RG-Tried to talk my cousin into giving me permission to hunt his property in Higganum but so far no go. 

Good Job !!!
   My little 30 acre or so spot has dried up and blown away-- found my first rub  and scrape in 3 days of hunting today- sat on them this PM and had one dog walker after another come by till dark.
 NO Turkey or Deer scratching - second year with no mast crop here whatsoever. Game has mostly gone on to better places.
  Used to have just bout 2,000 acres of prime habitat in several locations here in Ct crawling with deer- now left with a spot I used to walk through BEFORE loading up when going to where the deer were- lol. The other spots  are all factories and houses.
 Was great while it lasted though.

Nice nice !! I wouldn't attempt am over 50 yard where I'm at most deer were 50-75 out. Maybe Friday :)
Got another to chop today nice 7 pt on his farm.

Wicked busy this short week and the wood pile is gone.
Right now I'm 100 feet up on a stone pile in a d-9 .
Busy night . Call ya Charlie ,, good luck if you head out first
