Hit it hard today and nothing to show...Was a really nice day to be in the woods. Day didn't start on a good note when I almost slid my truck down an enbankment trying to park. Fortunetley I was able to dig up some gravel and get the wheels to gain some traction.
I walked up on what looked to be a yearling doe early in the am. I could've whacked her over and over, but I never slid the saftey off. It was fun to just sit and watch her feeding. Thought that might have been a good omen, but didn't see a deer after that.
I'd venture to guess that I covered a good 4-5 miles. I walked all day long, just looking to catch up with a good sized doe. Didn't cut that many fresh tracks, maybe a dozen or so different sets all day. Most if not all the tracks that I saw were close to the roads and houses.
It it makes and difference, I was hunting the gamelands out in Wexford. I'll be out tommorrow, but probably not out there.
If anyone is looking to hunt tommorrow I am also up for company...
Good luck to those going out.
