Deer Hunting a Doe / Buck November 2023
VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED!
Deer hunting with a 762x51 and an ATN Digital Day / Night Scope. The deer came in off of the ridge down to the feeder. It looked like a nice size Doe. It wasn't until it was down and I got close I noticed it was a button buck.
Took about 10 minutes +/- to find the deer as there was a good blood trail. We were able to drag it to the feeder and then eventually out.
Here is that story!
Enjoy!

Hunting Deer with a Crossbow Opening Weekend 2023
Deer hunting with a crossbow to start off the hunting season for 2023. The deer came in and my first shot was a miss too high. The deer decided to come back and I got the second shot off with a clean hit. Two other deer came in behind the first one but I let them go. Here is that story!
- Tenpoint Wicked Ridge Rampage 360 Crossbow
- Aluminum Tenpoint arrows with expandable tips
Took about 20 minutes +/- to find the dear and drag it to the top, close to the blind.

Cutting Down A Few Tree Limbs
What I though was going to be a quick 3 limb takedown turned out to be a 35 foot tree climb to get to the first limb.
Here is that story.
Enjoy!
P.S.: As always, constructive feedback appreciated. Criticism, not so much.

Doozy Dead Poplar Tree Barber Chair Takedown!
My neighbor had this poplar tree that split into a barber chair and then got hung up in another tree. A double whammy!. I took the time to cautiously take the tree down to the ground and cut it up into smaller pieces for fire pit wood.
Here is that story! Enjoy!
