My 2009 Doe!!!
I recently got a comment from http://www.TexasYouthHunting.com. I thought it was pretty cool to have a website that has it’s own t.v show comment on my blog. Here is the comment.
Brandon,
Keep up the good work. Let us hear about your hunting experiences. Also check out http://www.TexasYouthHunting.com and learn some new stuff. Happy Hunting!
I read over it a couple times and thought why not. I could share my hunting stories to you guys. I decided to tell about a doe that I shot on youth season. Here it goes.
I woke up at 5 o’clock on Saturday morning. I put my hunting clothes on and went back to wake my dad and my younger brother up. I told them to get dressed. I called my uncle to make sure he was up. He answered and knew what I was going to ask him. He said “I’m coming”. I grabbed my gun and went out to start our truck, to let it warm up. I put my gun behind the seat. My vrother did the same thing with his gun.
We were headed to our hunting spot. We met our uncle there. We discussed where we were each going to set. I was sitting with my uncle in the same spot I killed a big 8 the year before. My brother was sitting with my dad on up the hollow from us. We walked into the woods and settled in. It was now 7 o’clock. Me and my uncle were sitting right beside an old deer path that we thought was abandoned, against a tree three foot from the path.
It was now 7:30 a.m. and I was cooooold. I was going to get my hand warmers out of my fanny back when I heard something up over the hill. I slowly looked up and saw a doe coming down the hill. I pulled my gun up and steadied it on the deer. The doe kept getting closer. There was a ditch about f feet from where me and where we were. The deer was going to cross it. When she got one foot of her feet across it she looked up at me and my uncle. She saw me twitch my lip because it was cold.
She started running up the old deer path beside me and my uncle. I pulled the hammer back and stuck my gun out while she was on her way up the path . She ran in front of my gun and I pulled the trigger. She dropped to her chest and took off. Me and my uncle heard her crash on up the hill. We saw the blood right infront of our faces. It was a heck of a blood trail. My dad and my brother walked out of the hollow.
My dad asked if I got him. I said yeah and it was just a doe. We all walked up the hill to where me and my uncle heard her crash. She wasn’t there but luckily she left a good blood trail. I followed that blood trail for about 100 yards!!!! I finally found it in the creek 100 yards away from where I shot it. My dad took off to get the four-wheeler. I took my knife out and started gutting the deer. that deer looked like she was hit with a cannon ball from where she was so close when I shot her!!!! NO JOKE.
When my dad came back with the four-wheeler I done had her gutted and tagged. We loaded her up and went back to the truck. We set there and talked about how she came right up beside us and my dad kept saying that there was no way. We finally got him to believe us and loaded her up in the truck. Then we went to go tag her at our nearest tagging pace which happened to be Granny’s Pizza. We all had pizza to celebrate.
