Gonna head out in the morning.
Kids went to grandmas so me and the wife went to show a ranch and then hung out in Wimberly for the afternoon.
Did sling a pair of arrows and I’m dead on the money. Maybe there will be fortune in the morning.
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Major cool down this morning!....Yesterday it was 82 at 5 am when I left the house, and now I see it's a cool 79 and I'm sitting here at the house on my computer.
BTW the deer were moving good all morning so you should be seeing deer!

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

BTW the deer were moving good all morning so you should be seeing deer! I’ve seen about a dozen axis, several doe and a real nice 130 class buck. Unfortunately that was along the road on the way to the property! I’ve just seen one doe, everyone knows the old shrew, she just sits and stares and stomps and never eats. Had her at 24 yards and wanted to get her a few steps closer and she never did come as far as I wanted her too. It wasn’t her time I guess because she would have caught an arrow.

Called it about 8:45.
A little early but have to make it to my sons baseball game.
Wind was swirling all morning and the acorns are dropping.
Hard time of the year if you want a lot of action

I had better activity on bucks late yesterday afternoon about 10 minutes after sunset. Had 4 bucks come inside 35 yards and 3 were within 15 yards. One mature 10 pt, two middle age 8 pts and one 6 pt. This morning was 81 deg with 90% humidity. Saw 3 does and 1 fawn. They were spooked by something off to my west I could not see but they could. About 8:40 I saw some turkeys out in a spring food plot about 250 yards away.

I got blood thirsty with rifle sept 5 and it’s been down hill with the bow since then  I got my arse handed to me last part of Sept. I figured I should just wait until oct for a fresh record.

I didn't see the buck I wanted so I settled for a little 3 pointer. Now that I have some meat in the cooler, I can be a little more choosy.
