Kurtis had a hard time getting motivared this morning till about 6:45 when we seen a nice buck chasing a doe then he couldn't get dressed fast enough.The red fox we seen came in to about 40 yards the first time and about 40 ft the second time but I let it go cause I didn't check the laws to see if season is open on them yet.

yes I chased Kurtis out the door before breakfast and now we will eat and get back after it

Sounds like a plan Kurtis  :laf:  the eating thing that is.  My Icelanders didn't get motivated at all this morning and are smelling the bacon cooking now. :eyebrownod:.  Good luck on the rest of the day and I'm happy Bill found the arrows.

Looks like a good day to be pawing around the Hills of Ohio too.
Looking forward to the outcome. :eyebrownod:

Barry I didn't find my arrows so I borrowed this rig from a friend
We didn't see anything the rest of the day I think the wind really done us in but Sunday we will try again

It is a tough job to keep Kurtis interested when there ain't much going on

I guess we are done hunting this weekend afyer the ants got in Kurtis' pants we walked the 40 acers looking for squirrels ,rabbits,or even a ground hog we kicked up one rabbit and Kurtis is still a little slow on the draw and never got a shot off.

Called the fox in again this mornng and watched him go on by

Looks like there is a dead fox in the very near future  :biggrin:
