Back in climber as I type this. Yesterday didn't work but hopefully today pans out.

Most of the snow is gone. Wet, rain +9 stiff SW wind. Feels like October.

The view from my climber today:



No deer harmed. Had 2 does and a spike that almost came into range around 430 pm but 8 coyotes appeared and the whole lot boogied off up the hill with the yotes in hot pursuit. Got my truck well and truly stuck in a drift in the field. Got down from the climber at 5:15 pm and than was digging until 945 pm to get the truck out. Thought at one point i was there for the night.

Might have time for another afternoon sit tomorrow.

Holy....4.5 hours of digging. How good did the Forty Creek taste when you finally made it home

3x doubles 40 Creek Niagara Copper pot. 2 Advil and all was well.

Getting a little old for that chit. One of these times the old ticker is gonna say enough already.

When I got home looking like I had lived under a bridge for week the wife said I don't even want to know.

Streak may be intact. Buck and a doe came in 20 minutes ago. Pouring rain. Caught me totally by surprise Had a hard time getting the bow up.

Buck knew something was up. Doing the foot stomp. Put a bolt into him at 30 yards.

He jumped, ran 30 than walked 10 slowly. Stood still 15 minutes. Than very slowly walked 5 more awkwardly lay down.

He is about 80 yards from me. I am still in climber and guessing I have to wait here a while. Did not seem text book so don't want to bump him

Figured out the non textbook part. Recovered the bolt and it is intact but missing the front insert and Broadhead. Bolt is otherwise perfectly intact. Good blood right up to including the fletching.

Loud siren sounded and seemed to startle the deer. He jumped up and ran. This maybe 15 minutes ago. So that's when I climbed down and found bolt
Might be a long night.

Officially a race between me and the Coyotes. They are on the trail. Beady lights reflecting back in the flash light.
