Wife and I are in the stand in concho county. Trying to get her on a good management buck (she’s never shot a deer). Little gusty this morning so it’s slow. They completely shut down out here in the wind.

A young doe came in but she was too small. A big doe came in but every time she came into the shot windows she was facing me or quartered to me. She finally left. I did draw my bow once but quickly realized I couldn't make a clean shot. My body was contorted backwards, leaning hard left, twisting right and only a sliver of a shot. I let down.
Maybe another will come.Comment

Haha, you sprayed yourself down with vanilla didnt you?? Thats why that doe walked towards you. We know better. lol

Why are you you using a red or green light? Your going to spook every deer in the county with a bright white light panning over a field. Christmas is coming up, maybe Santa will bring you a early Christmas present?? One of those fancy red and green lights??

Had another young buck come by not but 4pts but big forks
Nothing but bucks this morning so farComment

Omg this has been a crazy morning!
The young doe started coming back but a 3 year old 8 spooked her. He is very wide but not what I'm after. He didn't enter the pen.
Then another doe came in anffor the first time ever I heard a doe call. Im guessing it's an estrus bleat? It definitely was not a call for a lost fawn. She was here for a few seconds and trotted off.Comment

I didn't go out this morning, but had a good morning yesterday. I saw 3 bucks and 3 does. I need to finish boning out the buck I killed last week and grind meat today. Plus I am taking about 10 lbs of meat over to the local locker plant to be sliced into "chip steak".
I have been waiting until gray light to walk in on morning hunts. That way I can see if there are deer in the fields or in my food plots. I either wait till the field clears or go to another set. That way I am not stirring up the area I am trying to hunt. A local friend with multiple bow killed Booners taught me this.....as well as a lot of other things that have helped me hunt these Midwest whitetails.
