well it wasnt a bad day yesterday(10/13/12). the morning was slow. saw 1 deer at about 9:30am but didnt get a good look or even a shot. as she came down a hillside she got eye level with be and i was busted. she turned around and went back up the hill. she was only 25-30 yards away but was behind a tree the whole way. i didnt think she seen me but she must have.
my friend comes out and goes to the tree stand i like to hunt out of at 11:00 am. i thought he was there all morning so i didnt even bother going there. he shots a small button buck at 1:30 pm. but the deer never come my way.
3:30pm i see a deer comming out from some thickets shes a nice size. as i pull up on her she turns right at me and sees me. she bolts right at me!! and dives... ye s dives for the thick brush that is infront of me. ive never seen something like that before.?. she actually crawls threw it and i dont even get a shot. sa im watching her to see if she comes out to give me a shot i catch movement down where she came out at and there are 2 more deer, a 6 or 8 point buck and a nice doe. well the doe turns to follow the first. well i was already facing that way so i pulled up and she stopped for that fatal second. BANG FLOP! streight down in her tracks 35 yards away. the 295 Barnes TMZ over 65grns of H-4198 did its job. it ended in the stomach some where but i wasnt digging threw that to find it. she had a very full belly. the Barns took out the throat and artery in the neck. i did find a small petal but that was it. now i have the rest of the week since im on vacation to go fill another tag!
here is a pic where she was when i shot. you can see the brush in the lower left corner the first one dove into.
here are a few of my doe
the enterance wound
her is where the one from 9:30 am came from. she walked half way down the hill behind the tree that has the mark.
