I had to work this morning, I finally got into the woods around 1:30. At around 3:00 I finally saw my first deer, it was a five point. The rack wasn't have bad.He stayed out of range, (about 50 yds out) for over 1/2 hr feeding. He finally came into shooting range, about 10 yds. I took the shot, but hit a tree limb. He ran about forty yds, and then walked away. About 40 minutes later a small racked 8 pt. came down the trail. He was a nice size buck, but had a basket rack. He walked right by my stand, and I took a quartering away shot. I hit him right behind the front leg. He ran about forty to fifty yds up the hill, staggered and then fell. He rolled down the hill about twenty yds and was down for the count. I had a really good first day!
