Back out this morn for my 4th sit. Haven't been inspired to shoot anything but maybe today will be the day!

Eastern view this morn.
Just over the crest of that hill lays a doe. Shot her in the food plot about 35 yards and she ran about 50 and piled up. My dad is hunting our bottom field and soon as it got daylight could see a big buck laying dead in the field. I assume it was shot somewhere close by this past weekend and not recovered. Anxious to see which one it is here in a bit.
I like that spot
congrats brother, sucks on the big buck though
Congrats on the doe brother but sad about the buck .

Slow morning here so far. Calm and cool. Sitting in the bottom on my southwest side again. Just before light side by side rode in on the property behind me and parked about 75 yards from me. No clue where dude is at.
Had a doe and fawn come though early. Cell cam showed a chase sequence in my field where I am not. Three does and a little buck. Still getting pics of coyotes, hoping to pop a few more.

Before I got down I ended up seeing that group come through on the property behind me and they went through my wind and on past. Those deer walked within no more than 10 yards of the guys side by side and didn't seem to pay it any attention. I know they had to see it, they never acted spooked or at all concerned by it. I kept expecting the guy to shoot the little buck or one of the does but he never shot. Further up a couple of the deer did stop in the exact same spot and dropped their heads for maybe 30 seconds or less, I couldn't see anything there, wondered if that might be one of his corn dumping spots?

Have four does that just came through on the east or right side of me. Have two more that just went through back to my left. Have one left hung up watching the two behind me and a little buck that is coming from opposite direction.

First time I have tried this stand in the afternoon, have my 12 year old with me. Had a deer blowing at us as he was climbing up and another blew from the opposite direction of us a couple minutes after i got in the stand.
So they were around. Maybe just the right buck will come through.

Back at it here again too. South wind at my face is pretty brisk and definitely colder than the real feel said it was.
Probably a mile away heard several rifle shots from same location, maybe they busted a bunch of coyotes.

Think I just missed a moving coyote.
Would have been number 7 for this season. Shot felt good, but it took off into overdrive as I watched it when I squeezed the trigger.

Within a few minutes after missing the coyote heard a couple howling a little ways off with an emergency vehicle. Tried my kiyi call and no luck. Ended up seeing a couple button bucks probably 20 minutes later. Little guy had to stretch to reach the licking branch.
Probably 15 minutes later saw a mature doe.
Got down and walked over where there should have been sign of a hit on the coyote and didn't find any sign. Tough hitting them when they are in stride, think I probably shot over it's back.
