snub from santa, vixen, dancer, and rudolph
« on: December 27, 2008, 12:33:42 pm »
I've been chasing 2 does and a yearling button, and a spike for most of the season in the Nat'l forest across the road from my property. I've passed on the button 3 times, hoping to get a shot at a larger doe or spike for my first trad deer.  The spike that hung out with them was shot by a neighbor on muzzleloader opening day, and I had the button 15 feet from me 2 weeks ago as i sat against a stump - he snorted, and ran through his momma and aunt like a linebacker , scaring them all off before I could shoot. I've had more fun hunting trad only this year than most i've actually scored, though! 

So the wife comes home yesterday from work at 7 AM  - says "Guess what was just in the yard by your target?"....


OK - EATING my hay bales????? REALLY SANTA?   C'MON!...  (look at bottom RH corner closely about an inch from the edge)

of course  kids think it's soooo cooool........ ;D  tracks are EVERYWHERE in the yard - 2 medium sets, 1 small.....

Hope you all had a good xmas too!
