Title: Not a bad morning........
Post by: ron w on August 22, 2016, 01:02:00 PM
After the gym and coffee I went to finish setting up my new ladder stand. Had to put up a bow holder and several hooks to hold my quiver and pack. Walking in [15 min.] I crested bank and stopped to rest a bit and look around and there was a doe, a yearling and this years fawn looking at me. Didn't take long and they bailed out.....lol. Went to my stand a finished setting things up and got my safety harness all adjusted. I shot several arrows from the stand and I was spot on every time......I was happy. Walking out shot a few times and saw 2 more adult deer, it was a great morning out and about.

sounds like a great day to be in the woods.  Hopefully the dryer cooler weather had arrived like it has now here in Maine.  Gets the blood stirring.

This is your year Ron!  I know most of last year was a bust with your knee.  

I know you were thinking of giving that area a rest until later in the season but i wouldn't completely write it off.

Good Luck.
