LIVE from the Stand!

Coyote came back so I took her, wasn't much else happening, that ends the pig hunt however, but its a rare chance I get a good shot at a coyote.

Sweet!

This is cool! I wasn't even considering the other seasons in play when I started the thread. I figured it would be all deer hunters. All these other critters keep it interesting! :)
 
The kiddo and I set back up in the ground blind where we had success yesterday. At first, I thought it was going to be a wash, as we spooked several deer working our way in.

During the predawn period, we had a couple coons try to crawl in with us, which made for some fun.

15 minutes after legal shooting light we had our first group come through. There was a really mature doe in the batch, so I took her at 75 yards.

After letting the woods settle, kiddo begins complaining about having to use the bathroom. As I look over to talk to her, there's a cull buck at 100 yards and closing. He made it to 60 when she shot him broadside.

Well, back to gutting, skinning, etc!
 
I don't care much for deer meat as no one else in my family, therefore i don't hunt deer.

I do find interest in everyone's deer and hunting stories so, I follow every thread.

I may one day line up a recipient of the deer meat in advance and give it a shot.

I don't care for coyote meat either, but those are hunted for other reasons LOL.
 
If you really want to hunt and no one is interested in the meat.
A lot of soup kitchens and homeless shelters will take a donation of venison. If you check around you may be able to find one that will gladly take your meat. I think this is one of the better ways for hunters to make a positive impact in our communities.

Just a friendly suggestion as we need more hunters and as much positive impact as possible to keep our tradition for future generations.
 
SC outdoorsman is absolutely correct. In many places you can just take the deer to a drop off station and leave it. No planning or preparation required.

We take many deer to the processors and just tell them this is for hunters for the hungry and they say okay, and that's it.

Just be sure to check into the procedures and required paperwork, before taking the animal. It's very easy, most places; but it's best to know the process ahead of time.
 
Uh.... Shows as a red pin for me....

There a river, with a foot bridge to the south, a farm with fences bordering the woods to the north. I'm almost exactly between the southern point of the fence and the bridge. About 85-90% toward the fence.
 
Red Pin with "A"

is shown as "pedestrian bridge" (north end of it). Green arrow, south end of it, is in the trees a short distance south of the fence. It looks like hardwood trees NE of you, but a lot of dead (leafless)trees at the other three quadrants around you. Satellite, zoomed in to the max, picture.

Golf course to the west.

Seeing anything?

Good luck this evening.;)

I'm going into the thick creek bottoms of the East Texas Piney Woods Wed evening and all day Thursday.:D

Congratulations

Like everyone else I have followed this thread. First a little foreplay, then a few stops and starts and now a terrific culmination. I feel like a cigarette!
