I ain't going Home Alone Today...... Story: New club. First year in. Started scouting back in August and got some pics of this deer. He's very peculiar to cameras and I finally found one hat didn't spook him. I moved the camera around til I found what I was looking for, consistent movement along a trail that comes from his bedding area to where he likes to access a flat. I only hunted this deer 3 times. This is the oldest deer I had on camera on this club, so I knew he was wise enough to recognize and not tolerate much pressure. I spooked him one bow hunt when I grabbed my bow and knocked my pack out of my stand with it. He never smelled me, so I just laid low til now. I have not hunted this spot since thanksgiving. I saw a good buck walk across the road last night on my way in from work. I checked the wind and it was right for my stand this morning, so I figured I'd give it a shot. At first light I could hear deer running around me, when it finally got where I could see he was chasing a doe. The rest is history. I'm just waiting til 9 am now so I don't mess any other folks hunting up while driving out the property since I am at the back.

Great picture!!! Congrats
Take your kids hunting instead of hunting your kids.
I'd rather be LOST in the woods than FOUND in the city.

Looking on my phone...initially thought that little doe was a coyote moving in on your deer.
Can't wait for a close up.
