Nice Al, :rockon :rockon :rockon
glad to see you're keeping up with the exercise regimen. only 5 more 16oz curls to go.
Lo carb beer man. I'm on hi-test now
Sat in the tree from 0630 till 1100, then again from 1245 till 7pm. Only a sore arse to show for it. This morning I did not see anything till after 9. A doe popped out. Way past her, down inside the hammock I saw another deer, big bodied and dark. Put the bino's on him and it was a mother truckin stud! Problem was, I was sitting in a death trap of a tree stand that while you are sitting in it, you are one wrong ass shuffle away from a wheel chair and coloring books the rest of your life. Plus the deer were across the property line
I tried grunting to him. he heard me every time but would not budge. Finally the doe spooked and took off down the hammock. He was on her butt wide open and gone....
Turns out it was a herd of hogs on their way in to the feeder. Ok, figured I would stroke one of them. They got about 60 yards and smelled something they didn't like, and went back the way they went. About 30 minutes later, the doe and buck ran back by me wide open. There was no stopping him. I even yelled at him and he would not hit the brakes.
This afternoon I hunted my tripod stand. I had three gobblers show up on cam this week. They came in this afternoon and I looked at them in the bino's for a while. First thing that caught my eye? One of them is a triple beard!! first one(multi bearded turkey) in 35 years of hunting I have ever actually seen.
I got to stay at work and now my m/l action is over.
