Archery season opened up last month, and gun opened up on 17 October. I have not seen a deer on this property during shooting hours until yesterday morning. Eastern NC allows dogs to be used so I knew my chances of getting a deer were quickly fading. I decided at the last minute to hunt this field and I'm glad I did. I was in the stand shortly before sunrise and at 0658 a 6 pt buck came out of the woods. I watched him for a few minutes to see if he gave any indication that he was with a larger friend. He grazed in the cut field and started heading towards my direction. I had not cleaned up the area around this stand since I usually hunt my hang on stand which almost cost me some backstraps. Needless to say after the hunt, I cleaned up the areas around both of the ladder stands. My father in law will probably be happy I did that for him.
Grendel did work, and now has a coyote and deer under its belt for this years hunting season.
Gun pic was taken after the branch trimming.
