Hunting

It has been a long couple of weeks. Grades closed and kept me busy. I have had some highs and lows in the woods as well. Halloween night found me in a stand on one of my favorite farms. I saw 12 deer that evening and managed to shoot over the back of a very nice 10 point.Since then the deer movement on that farm has shut down. It seems that if you have hot does on your farm you are seeing bucks. My farms feel like ghost towns.
I did have a chance to finally hunt a favortie farm last night. It was great to visit with the farmer and catch up. Most farmers are good , hardworking folks and George is no exception. I will make a better effort to get back there. I saw one small buck chasing a doe, but had a great time hunting and visiting with old friends.
