Well, the last week has been so busy! sorry i haven't been able to blog very much. i thought this might happen, i was afraid that when hunting season came around the running and blogging might get a little less regular. i am trying, i promise. i did shoot a decent buck the other day, not what i was hoping for, but he had an arrow sticking out of his neck. so i shot him and got the other arrow out and the entire wound (from one side of his neck to the other) was badly infected and pus was just pouring out. he is probably the biggest deer i have ever gotten with a bow, so i can't complain too much. i did get to watch one huge 10 point. when i first saw him he was 20 yards from my stand, through some very thick brush, and i thought he was a 10 point that my uncle passed a few days before. however, when he walked out where i could see his antlers i knew no one would have passed him. he had mass, was wide and tall. i got to watch him through my binoculars (because it was getting dark) at 80 yards for a good while. i also saw another big 10 point at the other end of the field, out in the open, during the entire last hour of daylight. i saw another 10 point about 70 yards away. he has good G2s and pretty good width, but not much of anything else. it has been an extremely eventful and fun year so far, and we are still in bow season and haven't even hit the rut yet! other than that i have only been able to hunt a few days since i have had to work every saturday since i got back from montana, and teach the youth on sunday morning and evening. if anyone is hiring for a job where i could have the next 2 months off (plus march, april and may) and still earn a good salary, please call me asap!
i got a new bike, more of a road bike than my other bike, hopefully it will stop raining soon so i can get back to running and riding my new bike!
lesson of the day: while growing up they tell you, you should get a good job that makes good money, that's false, get a job that allows you to hunt as much as possible and that pays you enough to be able to hunt as much as possible. period.
