I had to do alot of running to do on Monday , so I didn't get to go hunting. Tuesday I went deer hunting but only saw doves and squirrels. More of the same on Wednesday, but today.....
I got to the stand and heard rustling in the dark until daylight then a buck came from behind me at 20 yards. I think he is the 7pt I have seen out there prior. I saw him 2 more times within the next couple hours. Then just when I was getting ready to get ready to leave, I was standing up turned around in the stand. When I turned back I saw a really nice 3 year old 8pt at 45-50 yards. He was at the end of my comfort zone and I had alot of limbs in the way so I couldn't get a shot anyway. He hung out for a couple minutes then just turned and started to cross the neighbors field. I tried grunting him back and even tried a rattling sequence to turn him, but he had other plans.
The one deer I would've shot and I never even got a chance..... hope he stays around. Gun opens is a couple weeks.
🤞
