Sat Morning 10/14

First cool weather and deer movement was pretty good. Had a doe jump out of the corn downwind of me right at shooting time, but she didn't blow. 30 minutes later I had a half racked forkhorn walk under me. I could've spit on him. Third deer along was a doe, or so I thought at the time of the shot. As you can probably guess it ended up being a BB, but he went down in sight (40 yards). I should know better than to shoot a lone doe this time of year. But, he will eat good. Next deer along is a nanny and her twins. She skirted me at 40 yards after she noticed the deer I had already killed. I was hoping for a double, but she didn't like the sight or smell of that downed deer.

I forgot to take any pics.

Heading out with my 4 yo son to hunt out of the groundblind this afternoon. We'll see how it goes. lol

Congratulations on the BB. I know how you feel and I do pass on them when I can, but I don't think twice when it is an earn a buck and it seems nearly every year or so, I happen to take the BB out of the doe group. I think because they tend to be a little bigger than the doe fawn. I'll tell you though on the earn a buck program, everything without antlers dies. And I have no reservations about it.

And there is no question in my mind, that is the best tasting deer meat there is.
