Nice man!
Not a bad way to end a season. Saw tons of deer this afternoon six of which being bucks. Got these two halfway up the tree.

Y’all can have these cold days. Nothing works. Start up bike and throttle cable is froze up. Get to 1st gate and lock is froze up. Get to 2nd gate, it’s froze up. Get to ground blind and zipper is froze up. Waiting on day light and heated runs out of gas . Then my son says let’s go back to camp. That got my blood boiling so I don’t need the heater now. Told him he gonna tough it out. This isn’t a play station game.
Perfect hunt no matter what happens.

Well, the hunt was what I wanted and what I didn't want...had a young button buck come in alone. Last chance so no being picky. Gave me a perfect broadside at 17 yards. I was only 10 ft up. Which matters because I hit him high. Would have better if I had been at my normal 20 ft up.
He ran 10 yards, crashed. Got up, ran 15 yards back, crashed. Laid there for a few minutes. Got up, took some wobbly steps. Stopped for a minute. Took a few more wobbly steps. Stopped for a minute. I watched this for 10-15 minutes. I let him get out of sight so I could sneak down and back out.
The second crash site was very close to my tree. I grabbed my arrow and snapped this pic. I was surprised by the amount of blood given the fact I didn't see him expire.
Tough decision to wait, but I'll be after him in the morning. Hopefully the coyotes don't do too much damage. Red circle is 2nd crash site (where the other pic was taken). Blue arrow is the trail he wobbled away on.
Sounds like he won't be far. Good luck.Well, the hunt was what I wanted and what I didn't want...had a young button buck come in alone. Last chance so no being picky.

Good luck!Well, I didn’t see anything this morning. It was 16° when I left the truck this morning, and these southern deer weren’t moving. I saw didly squat. I get to sit this evening and tomorrow morning and then my season is done.
A nice buck I call “Jr” has been showing up on camera either a day before I hunt, or a day after I hunt for a few weeks now... he is taunting me. Hopefully he slips up in the next 24 hours!

Beautiful woods there!!It's great to be back in a tree! I'm back in VA, nice warm spell, it is 68 right now lol, I don't think I've broken a sweat climbing in a while. Cold snap tomorrow hoping to be back out here, I'm trying to hunt/scout areas I haven't touched this year. I can't shoot a buck, am hoping for some does to fill the freezer!

I'll probably be tossed from the forum but there's nothing wrong with a comfortable climber.It really is, makes me kinda want a climber though tons of tall straight trees, lol

I Might agree with you if all I hunted out of was an archaic Trophy Line.I'll probably be tossed from the forum but there's nothing wrong with a comfortable climber.
