We got blanked in the morning.
My daughter decided to let a spike walk and almost got a shot on a nice buck. We also saw a few turkeys.

Wife had a BIG one coming first thing, then some %$#% came down our property line at 0640 on an ATV! Seems he drove the truck to within 300 yds of his stand, then unloaded the ATV and RODE the rest of the way. Not old or handicapped either!
She DRT'd another buck at 0715.
She took one of the kids out afternoon, and they saw a BIG one off in the distance (Across a creek, in a pasture) He was heading their way. Wife grunted a few times, and they could hear him crossing the creek (very thick). Then nothing. They waited 15 minutes past full dark and tried to creep out, but heard him explode out of the bottom.
I saw him this am, came out of same pasture, but he swung WIDE around her stand. Nice deer.

Went to the swamp where I have been hunting all year and not seeing anything! I went because it is the first time I have hunted a property where there was going to be pressure from everyside. After hearing shooting in every direction, I saw two doe coming through the thick and could not get a good look through the binocs. i had to get the gun up quick cause they were getting ready to pass through the shooting lane. I was using open sights on my 870 and I pulled the trigger on the first deer at 84yds, which happened to be a yearling. The momma got away! Those two deer were the only deer seen by 4 guys on that part of the property. Saw nothing in the afternoon. Pretty disappointing but I came away with a little meat.

opening weekend on the shore was somewhat quiet. I did fill my tags on sika deer. One nice whitetail was shot that I seen and a spike whitetail. Not a whole lot of shooting for opening weekend of gun season but I got some delicious sika meat for the freezer and now I will try to smash a whitetail with the ole 12 gauge. I sure do like the rifle hunting over there though.. good times..
