2009 Suburban Bowhunting Adventures

SEPTEMBER 26 2009
Drew-Shawn and I head to leisure Living to see if we can get his first doe killed. We hunted from 530am til 930 didn't see anything but a couple of ducks and heard some raccoons fighting.

400pm Jaclynn and I go to the Mall to see if we can get her first doe killed. We are hunting in a Primos Vision Blind. We are using a Flambeau Fawn decoy and some bottles sprayed with doe urine hopefully that will put the deer at ease.

The deer have been coming out about 125 yards south east of our position. My hope is that they will see the decoy from 100 yards and circle east and north giving JacLynn a 15 yard shot. If not I am good out to 50 yards.

Its amazing how easy it is to setup in a groundblind. I think we had everything setup in less than 15 minutes that includes video camera decoy two trail cameras on tripods every thing. It has been raining most of the day and it actually rained on Drew-Shawn and I this morning. I think I have overhunted the stand we were at. I think I will have to stay out of that stand until rut.

Well its 630pm and we have just saw two does so I set my bow grunter to fawn bleat and I sort of get the does attention the out walks a 6pointer, the older doe wants no part of him.

Now I can see him faintly through the trees harrassing her. 3 really wish my kids had buck tags.

Anyway he of course chases off our backstraps. We are again waiting. We have about 45 minutes of camera light left. We will see if we can get a doe for JacLynn.

Well both does came back check out the video.

Tomorrow morning I think I will try and do a same day setup with my climber on some public land. Well lets see where the hunt takes us...
