11/28/20 8th day of Wisconsin 2020 Gun Deer Season
Nobody from the hunting partying hunted today or did any drives.
However, they did spend a majority of the day cutting/process the deer that were harvested.
I went to sit in my blind “Betty” for the evening hunt
I wasn’t feeling very hopefully as they had pushed this half of the property the day before,
so, I figured whatever was here is here no more
The sun was out, so that always gives that little more motivation to sit
But it was windy, not as bad a yesterday
Plus, I wasn’t sure how the wind would be once I got to my blind
My walk in was bittersweet as I knew that this possibly may be my last walk to my blind for awhile
Gun season ends tomorrow as I am not sure if I will hunt.
There is always archery until January, but let’s face it I am not a cold weather hunter
So, the likely hood that I will get back out to my blind in little
I tried to relish in my surroundings as I walked in
The wind was not too bad once I got settled into the blind
I had terrible wind burn after my sit yesterday
I hate the wind burn as hurts it my whole face and makes me hot, I find it a very unpleasant feeling
I always put on face cream before I head out, but that didn’t seem to work very good yesterday
So, before I went out tonight I rub shea butter all over my face
Anyways all settled,
Come on I will take that story that no more than 5 minutes after you get to the stand a big bucks’ steps out and boom, got me a big buck.
I don’t know maybe those are fairy tales. But I did get this:
I hadn’t been sitting 5 minutes when Mr. Tom turkey made his way out to the food plot
He didn’t stay long but he had a nice beard.
They rest of the night was peaceful but dull
I did not see a thing
I embraced the sun on my face and the cool air on my skin, as I know the season will soon end
About 10 minutes before close I could here some rustling in the woods in front of me
And well you know got myself prepared, for nothing, it was nothing, or was it
Nothing stepped out for me to shoot.
I closed up the blind and made my way out.
I always have to chuckle when I hear gun shots in the distance 2 or 3 minutes after the fact.
It was a slow walk out as I am just about to close another gun deer season,
With out a deer to add, but that was entirely by choice.
1 more day to go, ahhh who knows maybe I will hunt just that one last hunt tomorrow.
You got one more day make it count!
