Cherubim takes her 3rd. #5 on the season
« on: October 13, 2011, 01:13:37 pm »
My cup runneth over.  I was fortunate enough to get #5 this morning.  It was drizzling rain during the night but let up at about 5:00 am.  I climbed in a tree and listened to the drip drip drip until 6:45 when 3 does came up the ridge.  They were headed straight for my tree.  The lead doe walked under a beech tree then stopped.  I needed her to take two steps for the shot.  He held up a minute then took the step giving me an open shot. 

I thought the pic was kind of cool in that antique look.

That's awesome, very nice job!  I hope I can at least get one.  Our season opens Saturday.  Way to fill the freezer. :)

You've killed 5 deer this year?? How many are you allowed to kill? What do you do with all the meat?

We can kill 3 does per day with the bow and 3 bucks per season.  We eat the meat.  I always give some to some families who can use the meat.

You can kill 3 does a day all season with the bow.  Many of the SE U.S. is this way.  VA was the same way with the does.

Wow, that's great.  Here in Texas (in the county I hunt) we can shoot 5 deer per year, only 2 of which can be bucks.  Anyway, I'll bet you're a fast butcherer... ;D

 Man, Jimmy, that's why you're the shooting champ. I still hope there is at least one deer left when I get up there. ;) And we have a liberal limit here in Florida to, Archery season we can kill two a day, any sex for the whole season. then the same for bucks on Public land for gun season and get a solid week for does with guns on private land with the same limits. Our season starts Aug 31 till the end of Feb.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?
