7:15 spot some movement up a bit on a ridge Im about halfway down. Doe and skipper. They are downwind, smoke cover scent works well! Had a 2 pointer (left antler gone) dogging them. He was chasing the doe around. Skippy had to run to catch up. I could have taken the buck but obviously not what I am looking for.
8:30 just about ready to call it quits when i see a HORSE walking through the woods. Big 6 pointer, probably largest Ive seen. He gave me a shot about 30 yards, clipped a branch though. There are lots of low lying bushes and trees at this spot. He stood around for a bit longer but didn't present another shot opportunity.
bummed out but Im glad I didn't wound him. Will be back out tomorrow AM! Great morning, seems like southern CT is not yet in lockdown.
Never heard of this? its catching on. I really never use my scent blocker spray anymore. Especially after it gets cold in the season, deer get more used to the smell of smoke.
try it out! get a beehive smoker on amazon, use some leaves and some sticks/woodchips.
