End of My Season

[hunter]

Well hunted this Friday and Saturday and saw one small doe on Friday and two foxes at my Eastern Shore lease Saturday morning. Wont' be able to get out again this year as I'm going out of town at the end of the week to attend a firearms school. Been a long season for me but I hunted hard and for me it was a great season. Harvested some really nice doe's, a great sika stag and passed on more bucks than I can remember. I had some really close encounters with several big mature bucks and unfortunately never got a shot opportunity at any of them. I'm certainly grateful that I had a chance at those great bucks and not one bit disappointed I didn't fill a buck tag this year and hasn't been the first time I haven't taken a buck and I'm sure it won't be the last. Many of the bucks I passed on this year will be some big shooters next year and a new season always brings hope of a big mature buck on the ground. I will say I enjoyed many great hunts with Big Fox this year, my buddy Mike, my buddy Joey and of course Brandon and his killer wife Corrine. I would say the highlight of my season was being there when Big Fox's son Dylan harvested his first deer ( a great buck) and my hunting buddy Joey getting his first sika and a trophy sika stag at that. For sure those are hunting memories I will never forget and plan on making some new ones next deer season with some new hunting friends. Well now I have to endure the long wait to spring turkey and of course my spring bear hunt in New Brunswick Canada. For all those members who enjoyed my field reports thanks!! for reading and see you in the turkey woods soon enough.

I too enjoyed the reports! One of the main reasons I would get on here everyday! It was a great season and I am finished as well! Looking forward to start fishing pretty soon! Trout and bass. Helps turkey season come quicker!! Good luck during turkey season and I hope to see a lot of gobblers on here!

Hunter the reports have been great. That story about Dylan was pretty cool. I know Fox was proud.

Speaking of turkey, my uncle had 18 go through his backyard in La Plata. I wondered if it was the same flock that went through my other aunt and uncles property towards Bel Alton. Either way, I can't wait for April... new hours this year!
