We have a new early firearm doe season in MI. I am opposed to it, but rather than be bitter I thought I'd go give it a try on the opener. I like to start off with a doe anyway. Went to a stand close to the house. In fact it is in a white pine tree that I planted 18 years ago. Had a doe walk by an hour after daylight hit. Made a good shot and took up the trail after a short wait. Had to do a little wading at the end.  :)  

 

 

I never heard a gunshot while I was out, but it was on a thursday morning.

Nice Denny. A fat doe is a great way to start the season. Still enjoying that 3 under grip?

Congrats on a good start to the season Denny!!

Nice doe, getting the herd balanced is always a good thing.

Are you still using 3 under?

For hunting to have a future, we must invest ourselves in future hunters.

Nice doe Denny.  I have chosen not to participate in that hunt myself, as I too am opposed to it.  Looks like you had a good time.

Nice to see other Trad shooter out in the early "gun" season with a bow.  I was supposed to be out tonight but had to work (I'm "working" right now).    :bigsmyl:  

But I think me and another Trad Ganger will be out in the morning with some stick and string action.

Good looking deer and in my opinion the best way to take a deer.

Hopefully I'll take my first Trad animal in the morning.    :pray:

It doesn't matter how or what you shoot, as long as you hit your target.
