Title: What a fall day in the GA woods!
Post by: Anaconda12 on November 01, 2009, 09:57:00 PM
Well the wife and kids had plans so off to the woods I went in hope of taking a doe for the freezer or a buck  if big enough!  I settled into my stand located in some white oak trees that were still dropping the acorns that the whitetails here key on as a major food source.  I couldnt help but notice the splendid fall colors....................

The area leading from a thick swamp and old cutover that I expected the deer to come from..........

My cover was busted by this noisy and purely annoyed Fox squirrel.........

It wasnt long before my intended quarry was feeding it's way straight for me, now here is the catch, I made a deal with myself that I would not shoot if I could not capture the shot on video, and being alone that may be tricky!  I have a camera pod that attaches to the tree that supports my camera but the deer would have to cooperate in being in the field of view at the right time for the shot!  Well I got it done I took this nice doe ( the same doe that gave me and Tex "fits" while he was here hunting from the same stand) and I got it all on video.  I watched as soon as I got home and will have to admit it is pretty cool since a young 4 x4 buck thought he was rutting and kept chasing my does out of the viewfinder!  She will eat good!
