Doggin again today in Hellhole and she said at the end of the day “Thanks daddy for an awesome hunting experience today, I love you!” Rewind: We had an absolute monster wallhanger go past us outside of range, buck hit the second slew swimming down it and circled back to us after losing the dogs. He comes to us at 70 yards and must have bedded down under a downed tree and never came out, if my daughter would have been able to punch a hole in this beast she would have made every man hunting today jealous until they RIP. Had 3 deer cross on us on the same stand during the last drive: 1 doe at 8 yards, 1 doe at 40 yards, and another monster buck at 45 yards…here is the kicker I told her @ 3:00 p.m. we were coming out the swamp since we left our warmer clothes in the truck and I had been freezing for over an hour and a half and as I removed the shell from her gun she hollars “Big Buck Big Buck Big Buck!” So that buck escaped death because by the time I threw my gun up she okayed me to shoot it was out of sight. We saw a total of 5 deer today and here is a big 10 point that almost came to us but got shot at by the next man down which turned him away and into the hands of another hunter. Great day is all I can say!
