Although my extremely active one year old has limited my posts from this blog, the season has not been that exciting. Aside from shooting my frist coyote with a bow, I have little to write about. I have had several young bucks (1 1/2 yr olds) within bow range, and several does (no tag) , but my arrow has remained knocked, everytime. Other than getting winded by two different 2 1/2 year old eight points, I have yet to see a mature buck, even on camera.
This has to be the oddest hunting season I have ever witnessed. Very little sign and no acorns. Other than witnessing two small bucks fighting, I did not witness any rut activity; no chasing, seeking, nothing. I still have two weeks to get out and try and kill one with a bow. I went out with the shotgun a few times, with no action, but a couple of does running through the woods.Hopefully I can post a pic of a nice 8 pt before the season is over.
