This blog is being created for hunters to come and tell the world and amazing story about a time when they were in the woods. I want to see stories of success and stories of a not so happy outcome.
First, I want to tell you a story of mine that is one of my favorite mornings in the woods, I hope you enjoy. It was opening morning in first gun season in. This time of the season the bucks are chasing doe's real hard, responding to all types of calls and sequences of calls. Anyway, I get to my favorite tree, the tree I have killed a nice deer out of before. It was about 6:00am or so I had just sat down before light. I already hear some movement in the valley in front of me. I wait until it is time to shoot before I make any attempt to call at the deer that are in front of me. It is now about 6:45 or so and I decide to hit my Primos Estrus Call, "The Can", and as soon as I turned that call over once I had a monster 8 pointer sprinting toward my location. As soon as I see him just like every abbot hunter, my heart begins to race. The deer continues to hunt down where that sound had come from and before I knew it he was only 30 yards from me. I had an easy broad side shot at 30 yards and I took it. This deer went down no more than 50 yards from my tree and I was so relieved.
I think the best part of this story is that I had had to deer field dressed and back hanging in pole barn my 7:30, ate some breakfast, and got back into bed by 8:30. To most of you hunters, that is one amazing morning in the woods.
I would like to hear some of your stories now. Also, please comment on my story and ask questions. I am looking forward to hearing all of your triumphs and disappointments that all of us have endured in the woods.
