My brother was "supposed to" come in but apparently he's soft up there in Wisconsin and decided not to. Supposedly, he hurt his back and couldn't come in for the early muzzleloading season, and when I sent him a text Friday morning, he said that he hurt his back again and wouldn't be coming in.

There was 6 longbeards and 2 jakes in the bunch. The longbeards were just that. They had about 8-10" beards. The pictures aren't that great because my little camera is a POS and the turkeys were around 50 yards away.
Anyway, after sitting there until about 10:30 and not seeing anything, I said the heck with that spot and walked on over to where I normally hunt at. Got to my little blind around 11 AM and sat for the rest of the day.

The scent wafers you see hanging are because the wind was swirling today. It's best to have a North or NW wind when hunting the area, but there was a SW wind today about half the time. The other time, it was mainly comng from the NW, but was swirling around quite a bit. I had several scent wafers at the bind hoping that the scent would help cover my scent (even though I had sprayed down with some Silver XP to help cover the scent).
I sat there all afternoon and didn't see jack until about 5:10 PM this afternoon.
I had a little deer come in different than they normally come. I kept hoping that one would come in from one of the other directions, because the wind kept messing with me in that direction. We're only allowed 1 antlered deer in KY, so all I could shoot was an antlerless since I got the buck in October with the crossbow. Anyway, the deer started coming in, but would throw it's head up and smell every now and then. I could tell the thing had gotten my wind, but with ithe way it was swirling, it couldn't tell exactly where i was. I should have known that since the thing didn't bolt and start blowing that it was a stupid little button buck.

Nothing like a good blood trail, that you don't really need. After the shot, he ran off and I watched him fall.

A short little drag down hill to the food plot where I could get the 4 wheeler to him and my season is pretty much done.

I "can" get another antlerless tag (good for 2 antlerless deer) and keep hunting, but I'm not sure if I will or not.

I had hoped to let him hang overnight, but when I was coming back up here, I checked the weather on my phone. It wasn't supposed to get out of the 50's all night.
