007hunter Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 Re: How was your day hunting for the opener??? It was alright. Didn't see a thing from my stand but did see 3 doe when I got down. I saw them coming across the field so I snuck behind some brush. I had a shooting lane to my right and wouldn't you know they veered off to the left. Oh well, wasn't really looking to shoot one today unless it was a nice buck. The other guy who hunts the farm with us shot a nice 8 point today. I was thinking about goin out tonite but have decided not to. I don't want to burn out this early Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huntrman Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 Re: How was your day hunting for the opener??? The morning hunt was a bust. Went out that evening and saw 6 does and a little 5 pointer, all were within range except the biggest doe, which is the one I wanted to take. Had numerous opportunities at the others, which in a way looked like they wanted to be shot because they were so close and kept circling waiting for the combine to finish taking beans out. All in all was a fun hunt. Had the old leg shake and heart racing again, love that feeling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUDRUNNER Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 Re: How was your day hunting for the opener??? I had a spike and a five pointer within 25 yards.It felt good to be out in the woods when the sun came up!It's supposed to be in the mid 80's the next few days, so I probably wait till we get a cold front to go back out.

lil hunter Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Re: How was your day hunting for the opener??? I saw 3 does on the property when we were drivin in. I got to my stand and hunted 3 hours and saw nothing buy a squirrel. I was pretty dissapointed. I had to leave by 9, because I had to go to a wedding in Tennessee.

Tominator Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Re: How was your day hunting for the opener??? Good day. Saw a total of about 20 deer. Only one in range was a nubbin buck and the landowner doesn't want them shot, so I passed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Re: How was your day hunting for the opener??? Opening day...you mean opening weekend right? Well I'm filling up some of the space in my freezer again. I lost everything I had in it thanks to hurracane Katrina. Around 7:00 on opening morning I put a doe down. I shot her for 23 yards and she went down within sight of my stand. Looked like she expired in mid air. She was trying to make a big jump over a brush pile but she never made it to the other side. Never seen a crash quite like that before. On the 2nd morning of the season I added a bigger doe to the freezer. A few minutes after 8:00 a big doe gave me a 7 yard chip shot and she crashed only a couple of yards past where I last saw her. Love those short tracking jobs. I was back to buck hunting again that afternoon. All in all I saw 8 does and 5 fawns from a stand this past weekend. I guess with the temps getting into the mid 80's the bucks were laying low until after dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
