SW Ontario - Deer #2
Today was a windy one on the stand. My buddy talked me into going out, as I had sent him a text yesterday saying the weather was going to be 'less than ideal'. Regardless, he won the argument.
Now I need to thank him!
While holding on tightly to my treestand as the wind whipped through my bush, this young buck appeared on one of the well-used trails I monitor at about 8am. He came text-book down the trail, right to where I had my trail-cam situated not 1 week ago. I 'bah' stopped him, and whistled a GTII lead by 100gr Slick Trick through both lungs at 20 yards.
He managed to go about 50 yards, and fell over in the swayle behind me.
On a day I anticipated being in the woods to be a waste of time, I managed to put one more in the freezer.....You never know when an opportunity will present itself. No matter the weather, get out there and give yourself a chance. As my Dad used to tell me, you can't shoot a deer snuggled up under the comforters in your bed!

Sweet!!!
That will be some Tender Venison. I will take that over a tough old brute any day!!!
I went out this morning as well but seen nothing. I used the climber & I was swaying all morning long in the wind.
I have a doe only tag left after getting my buck on Oct 14th.
Next is our blackpowder hunt on Nov 18th to 24th & need a few more deer to tide me over for the year!!

A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.
