Ryano:
Pappy, maybe if you let a few of those doe go by your stand a buck will come through......lol.
Greg, sounds like its back to that vegitarian diet fer you......lol. ;D
Pappy:
I thought about that but just can't help myself.You know a bird in the hand.I usually wait long enough to see that ant one right behind and the stuff I shoot is quite enough I have had the buck come along in a while so I just set tight.But I do know what you mean. ;) :)

Last day of rifle season here, bow reopens on Dec 1st, Have a cold spell going, highs maybe to 20 degrees,
Have a couple inches of snow in my hunting area now. Went out this morning with the rifle but only saw does, no doe tag in this area.
Hope the cold holds for a bit the swamp will freeze up and make getting around much easier.
GregB:
Went out for a quick hunt after work Friday, and had two does show up. I waited 15-20 minutes with the smaller doe in front of me hoping the larger doe would come in range. Finally approaching darkness forced the issue and I shot the smaller doe. She still probably would dress out between 85-90 lbs. It was a sharp angling away shot, arrow entered just behind the last rib and lodged in the opposite shoulder. Very little blood,... couldn't find any that evening. Went back and found the doe the next day. She had traveled just over 100 yards. :)
Pappy:
And the picture.
