WTG...........YOU DID IT
thanks for the comments
so got out with the old fella this morning, frsh snow made things perfect! i set him up at the base of a hill where i have seen the deer have bin bedding at the top, i then went back to the start of the logging cut and slowly made my way through it. lots of fresh tracks in the snow. so as i came to the top of the hill i was on high alert. and then a buck jumps up 20 yds in front of me from under a tree... scared the beejesus out of me haha. by the time i got the rifle up, he already had too many trees between us, but he was heading right for john, which put a smile on my face... unfornutaly i herd no shot ring off... followed the bucks tracks, and i guess he winded john and turned away and ran a different direction, passing just out of his sight... i repositioned john, at the other end of the cut and started tracking the buck, but he of course headed for the thick stuff, and that was pretty much the end of it... so at least i got him out for a bit, hopefully get another opportunity next week... maybe this time the buck wont catch me flat footed ,lol
Congrats....Nice Doe.
