Finding Solitude - Part 2
Not 15 minutes later I saw the buck I was willing to let wear my tag. He was every bit of 4 years old, and he carried at least 135 to 140 inches of bone. He was following up a group of does that had passed by at 25 yards, but with only 10 steps to go before he stepped into my shooting lane he stopped. It wasn't five seconds later that a group of does that had come up from behind got a whiff of me and sent out the alarm. Well, I don't need to tell you want happened next; lets just say white flags were flashing in all directions.
Wind continued to be a problem that afternoon and the next morning as well. I decided to sit in a couple of different spots on the ranch so I wouldn't wear the saddle out, but swirling winds kept the deer blowing. Needless to say nothing got close enough for a shot. However, on the afternoon of the third day I went back to the productive saddle. Although it wasn't as productive as the previous two mornings, several deer did pass by, and a couple of 2 year old bucks also made an appearance. I was able to snap a couple of shots of them, so check them out below.
Well, even though I have not sealed the deal yet, I still have two more days. With the numbers of bucks I'm seeing, I bet I'll get another crack at one, so stay tuned.
