The first day of Black Powder season I talked to a guy and his son that saw 6 does within shooting distance. I asked him why he didnt shoot he said he had a Buck tag and wasn't going to shoot a doe. The last day when the sun went down I asked him if he had any chance to shoot a Buck. He told me that he didn't see any more deer and wished he had taken one of the Doe's.



Where I hunt if I see a Deer I shoot it or I may not get another chance. Anything with momma or spots on it I let walk away, we have to leave some to grow up.



Good luck I hope it doesn't happen to you.

They way things are going, bad weather and all, I may have one of those tag soup years! The leaves have been knocked off the trees now and by noon today winds are supposed to be hitting 40 mph. Guess I will pass on the hunting and fix fence. A tree blew over on my pasture fencing and this should allow me to shore it up.

Tomorrow's weather should be better and I have plans to go up to Marlette, but that area is better for fireamrs hunting as it is big farm country. Lots of open fields. I killed two huge does there last year with my shot gun. I have heard a buck I looked at a lot last year is still around. Maybe I can get him this year!

I hunted my own property for the first time this season. I had a buck come in, first one I have seen while hunting this year. He was what I call a fork and a half. Almost had a 5th point on one side, no brow tines. Obviously a yearling. I watched him for a long time and decided to let him slide.

This was tough to do as I have seen few deer so far and have not even put a doe in the freezer yet.
