Tuesday, September 16, 2008, Temp 78 degrees, Wind S/SE 15-20 mph, mostly sunny, Sunset: 7:23 pm (hunting close 7:53 pm)
I went to Arlie's nob. Got to the tree at about 5:20. Nothing for this guy. Bubba was out in the ladder stand. Got in about 5:40. At about 6:30, a spike came through to the north moving from east to west about 30 yards away. At 6:40, Bubba saw one doe to the south moving from east to west. At 6:50, there were 3 deer (1 buck in velvet 6 pointer outside the ears) that stayed behind him. All about 20-25 yards away, but no shot. They stay around and mingled for 10-15 minutes. Right at dark, as Bubba was getting down 4 deer were out in front of him to the NE, too dark to tell what they were. Totals: Bubba: 9 deer - 2 bucks, 3 does , and 4 ?'s. Bob: 0 deer.
