The blind hog finally found another acorn! Got lucky on a good buck last Friday. I don’t know who was the most surprised, him or me. Based on the way my season had gone I surely wasn’t expecting to see much, just hoping. However, my hope was rewarded when this nice buck slipped in on me and ultimately gave me a perfect shot opportunity. You can see it all in the video gallery. Who knows, maybe the season will end quite differently from the way it started. Later…

Well, I’ve been thrown a curve ball that I certainly didn’t expect. Somehow, and I’m not exactly sure how, I’ve seriously injured my knee. I’ve apparently ( according to an MRI ) ruptured the quadricep muscle coming from the thigh and attaching to the knee cap. Dr. Wright Skinner had originally scheduled me for surgery but has decided against that upon review of the MRI which shows a partial tear rather than a full tear. He has put me in an immobilizing brace indefinitely in hopes that the muscle will heal and reattach given time. That means I cannot bend my knee at all until we see what happens. So, my hunting is on hold indefinitely! It is what it is and I’ll have to live with it. Maybe by the time the rut kicks in I’ll be kicking back in as well. Only the good Lord knows the answer to that question. Later…

Man! This is starting out very slowly, at least for me. I’m getting a few decent bucks on camera ( Trail Cam-2019 ), even some daytime pics. However, all I’m seeing so far is does and fawns. I am pleased to be seeing so many fawns but give me a break. Enough is enough. Let’s see some antlers!! Later…

Well, the 2019 season is upon us. If you’re a bowhunter like myself you better be getting your stuff together. That means your stands should already be up and you should be feeding them if that’s your practice. And, if you haven’t been shooting your bow by now it’s too late!! I’m just starting to get some trail cam pics ( which you can see in the Photo Gallery). It’s really way too hot to be hunting but, guess what, I’ll be in a tree come Thursday morning. Wishing you all a great season. Later….
