I just shot the biggest squirrel ever . . .never mind, it was a small doe.

Funny how they seem to get bigger the longer you go without seeing one.

I'll post pictures and get a story out later. Got it this morning at 8:30ish and it's already half eat and the other half in the freezer. Yum, yum!!

Go team Virginia!

WAY TO GO SCOTT!!!! Sounds like the second one I got. This is the tastiest deer I have ever sunk a tooth in. Had backstrap fried in butter this morning for breakfast.

Sounds like what my German aunt used to call a "breakfast deer"--Congratulations!

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!
At least you got a shot at a deer. I've been using a ladder stand in an oak tree and the squirrels (real squirrels) are all around me every time I hunt, but only one deer in range so far, and I passed on him. (spike buck, and we are limited to one buck/year)

edited to add:
If the tenderloins are that small, just cook them whole and eat them on hot dog buns.

Thanks for the congrats! It is a tasty one . . .packing a deer sandwich for lunch tomorrow.

Started raining just before dusk tonight and didn't see anything until the ride home. I did see some 3:30p.m. deer today. I have seen NO BIG BUCKS! Maybe tomorrow!

The squirrels have been all over me . . .must be mad about me killing their bigger sister.

Seriously, I've had four that almost jumped on me. They back off then up a tree barking.

I am using a slow hook-up when I get a chance her in Va. It's hard to keep up with all the posts. I have a lot of catching up to do when I get back.
