Quiet Night in the woods
Went out last evening to try and fill a deer tag with the muzzle loader. It was one of those times where the woods seemed dead. No birds chirping, no squirrels running around, just quiet. I run into days like that every once in a while, just too quiet. Suppose if I had a bit of bait out there my chances would have been better in December, but I hate to lug in bait a half mile to my stand site.
Got a text from one of my listers last night with a picture showing the deer were coming in to his bait. In fact he passed a couple smaller bucks lat night so a frinds boy could have a shot at them later. Now that’s a nice guy. Ah well, I’ll be back out there this evening, looking to fill one tag yet.
