Pattern critters, set stands, have deer walk to you in the first 30 minutes of your year.

She's lucky she's so little and cute. Because I bet deer veal would be tasty.



Now I just need her Momma or GreatGreatGreatGrandpa to walk in the same way.

Glad you're feeling better about yourself. Stay away from Aunt Ethel.

I may or may not have first hand experience that they are indeed tasty...

Shot a button buck when I was 13. Second time my dad let me sit a stand alone. Was carrying a youth .243 w an old 3x scope from the 50's. We didn't have squat for clothing technology in the 80's. I remember sitting there as a kid in blue jeans and cowboy boots with a down jacket and ballcap and freezing my juvenile huevos off. Deer was alone, thought I was shooting a doe Plus I had no experience sizing deer on the hoof and it was a bad year for broomweed. Not sure who was disappointed w me more, my dad or .... me.

Now that I've set the story up, yes they are tasty.

Been there too. Both on a button buck and a doe fawn. They still eat good. No shame in it.

Glad to see you in a better mood. You'll be shooting ducks in no time and be happy as a lark

Button buck. Never heard that term. But lived it.

So two good sized doe, I thought, show up to my left late one morning. I'm facing east as the sun comes up. I'm iron sight against the sun. About 9:30 and in a cold 4x4 one man stand. I'm authorized for a doe or s spike as a guest.

Against a heck of a sun glare I pop one. I knew the other doe would circle around looking for its mate and pop her as well. Mission accomplishing shots right?

Walked up the first one and damn if it's a he, a nummy. I knew right there What next one was. Two numbies on the ground. Good Lord what now? Landowner was to say the least, a "difficult guy".

Long day.

Shot a "doe" one time at a friend's lease. Rolled her over to tag her and literally yelled out loud, "WTF do you have balls!?!". Looked closer and found the nubs.
