Since I can’t hunt–well I guess I can hunt, but at this point in time I’m choosing not too, I figured I would share a few stories from individuals who are getting outside.

Jeff hasn’t went much this week, and a few nights ago he got blanked.  I know he hasn’t been feeling well too, so I’m not sure how much he will get out this weekend, but I will let you know.

My sister’s boyfriend saw a monster last night.  He is not sure what happened, but the buck ended up splitting before he offered him a shot.  He is still wondering what made him spook, and is counting on the rut at this point to bring him back in.  Hopefully that is the case.  They do tend to get a severe case of stupid when that rut comes around.

One of my buddies had a close encounter with a little six point the other night.  He has yet to shoot his first archery deer, but this one wouldn’t cooperate and take the few necessary steps he needed him to in order to take the shot.  That is the way it goes sometimes, and hopefully sometime in the near future he gets another opportunity.

As for me, I’m writing this post while little Abby sleeps next to me on one of her pillows.  This is the nightly ritual lately, and it gives her mom some time to get some sleep before she needs to feed again.  With all of these things going on, and with mom not being able to drive for a little while, it pretty much limits me when it comes to hunting.  I might be able to sneak out this weekend, but only time will tell.  As I said in a previous post, I have plenty of time still left to hunt.

Hopefully soon we will have some success stories to share.  When we do I will be sure and let you know.  I also might sneak out and put the trailcam out this weekend, so in the next few weeks-when the weather really starts to cool down, and mom can drive again, that Abby’s daddy will know where to go to find those big bucks.
