Title: 3 Bucks and a ??
Post by: KySongDog on October 16, 2014, 02:28:25 PM
Why I drive 100 miles round trip to deer hunt is a mystery to me.   :confused:   I would hunt in my back yard if I could get SWMBO (she-who-must-be-obeyed) to go along with the program.  Anyways, I look out my back window and see these three guys lounging around the bird bath and bird feeder.  There was a small doe or button off to the left that I couldn't squeeze in to the photo.

And a ??   (small doe or button)

And then I saw that the little guy must have been all tuckered out and went to sleep   :eyebrownod:

The little ?? above was a little button.   He turned his head enough that I could see the small nubs.   :laf:

I clearly understand the SWMBO, when we lived on the mountain we had them all over the place.  But I had to walk UP the mountain and over the ridge.  Couldn't kill anything on the mountainside if I could see the house.  But you and I both know that we would not want it any other way.

Nice pictures.

Enjoyable series of photos.  In our area I'd be surprised to see a bachelor group of bucks together this far into Fall, but I'm not used to whitetails, especially in the numbers you have there.  Love those hardwood trees.

I agree and, of course, I was just joking about the SWMBO remark.  All things considered I am most thankful I have her.  For the last 41 years she has stayed with me through times when very, very few would have.
