Blind Enthusiasm
‘‘Twas the night before deer season.”
And all through the house.
I was running amuck.
Cuz it’s what you do the day before the home opener!
Here we go for another season gang, blinds are set and the prospects look good.
More to follow.

At 9:10 it happened!
First a doe, then there he was, antlers sticking up through the grass.
Rear view around 260 yds(ranged earlier) by the time the rifle went up....... gone! Smart bugger musta went through the dead ground. The doe stayed visible from the fence to the Bush!
That’s why it’s called hunting.

There’s likely a bullet up in his front end someplace.
I’ll find it when we butcher him.
