My back yard
Fall is here! Considering how hot it was on Saturday, today it's barely in the 60's and it feels great! I decided to leave work a bit early and go hunting. I wanted to try behind my house for a change. I got home, dressed, got my stuff and headed out through the gate. After a few minutes of finding a decent tree to get up, I climbed and settled in. I could hear people cutting the lawn, kids playing, etc. I have to admit, I felt a little uneasy but if my neighbor (the police officer) said it was ok, and the guys I met setting up their stand (a police officer) said it was ok, it must be ok. As the light started to fade I happened to turn to my left and saw three does walking towards me. There were two medium sized does and one smallie. Unfortunately it was to my left so I couldn't draw on them, but I watched the bigger of the two try to make out what I was. She walked to about 23 yards and needed to take a few more steps for me to be able to draw on her but never did. They all decided to walk back from where they came. At dark I got down and went home. I'm not sure if there's anything besides those three deer in the woods but I'll give it another shot again.
