Swamp Buck Down
He came out of the corn field and was about 20 yards from me. Had to do a quartering shot on him. Arrow was found alongside the buck unbroken but had a torn fletching. Got both lungs but he still ran about 100 yards or so. Had an excellent blood trial. Walked right to him.
Got him to the cart with the sled.
Loaded in cart.
Gear packed in sled with deer in cart underneath. The cart pulled really well all loaded up like this.
Took about 1/2 hour to get to the truck. Easy loading after I put him back in the sled. Backed the truck up into a low spot so the tail gate was about 2 feet off the ground. Pulled the sled right in, easy peasy!!
Was 28 deg F this morning.

Re: Swamp Buck Down
The hard work made the hunt more satisfying. I was happy to see my scouting finds were on target. This secluded little wood lot is heavily traveled by the deer.

Re: Swamp Buck Down
Too far off the main road for people. No one likes the 1.5 mile walk to get there. That's why it is secluded and holds deer. I have only seen one other hunter this season and he was in a different area.Normous wrote: ↑Tue Nov 28, 2023 4:04 pmOnce a good spot is usually a future good spot!

Re: Swamp Buck Down
Congrats! Good eating deer!
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.
