Half a dozen of us met here at my place. I had a big fire going comprised mostly of gift boxes and wrappings. Add a few pallets and you've got a good start to the mornings events. We shot the bull and our bows as we caught up with each other. It's been a week since we were together, a lot can happen in a whole week!
Then we walked to the woodlot where I posted each stander at historically good spots. I made a big loop through the bedding area and soon saw a few tails headed toward my buddys. Oh boy, somebody is about to get some action!
I finished the drive and found that Jerry (Woodland Gnome) was the only one to see deer. Eight does and fawns came to him and stopped just out of range. They turned and headed out of the woods in a corner we didn't cover. Ah crap!
We went back to my range and ate some awesome pulled pork sandwiches. I got the recipe from our host at the SC hog camp we go to. This batch turned out really good. We might not be great hunters but we sure can eat good!
We shot my bag course and laughed like good friends should, followed by a cold one by the now smoldering campfire. Good times. We kind of hated to break it up but soon everyone headed home. What a great day!
