Today’s date is traditionally one of my best days of hunting in the Midwest. It’s a date that I’ve had a lot of success. I was hoping Brian would get a crack at something today. I went to a place I saw 15 turkeys the other day in hopes of getting a crack at the big gobbler I saw in the flock.
Unluckily, I never saw a turkey, but I did see four bucks and two does, both does were being chased by bucks, one of the bucks was a dandy. I tried to get some video of him but didn’t succeed. It was an awesome sight to see. I might send Brian in there in the morning because they were running does in there. He saw one doe today and one buck. The buck was chasing the doe. He thought it might have been the big buck he has on camera. It was cold today, 24 degrees when we headed into the woods. It felt like it got warm, but it never really did.
Although the deer are moving, I’m not sure Brian is going to get the job done. He seems very indecisive with choosing a spot to sit every day. He needs to buckle down and commit to a place and go there with confidence.
When we talked to one of our neighbors in the campsite, we found out that we can use the antlerless tag that came on our license. We were told a few different things. This is a good thing. I’d love to get a crack at a good doe for some extra venison.
