Got out in the woods this afternoon for some of God’s therapy and hopefully a doe since I burned my gun buck tag last weekend on a coyote ravaged big buck for rattling antlers. At 3:00, a group of guys did a drive on the piece I was sitting in. They didn’t jump anything so I packed up and headed back to the truck with plans to drop my pack and walk a piece of cattails, marsh grass and red brush. Ended up jumping a decent buck not more than 120 yards from the parking lot and without having a gun buck tag left in my pocket, I had had to watch him run off. Would have been a 40 yard chip shot with the 30-30. Was nice to see a good one even if I couldn’t pull the trigger on it.
Tomorrow is the celebration of life ceremony for my sister. Will be a long day…
