Wandering Aimlessly

 

The No-School Buck

by Phil Burkhouse

 

After Isaac’s success with his six-point buck the opening evening, Jake and I continued hunting hard the rest of the first week.  Little Bear Wes had football practice every evening, so his hunting time was limited to Saturdays.  We had scouted and had many tree stands and small blinds positioned on oak ridges throughout the county where we had found deer sign.  We had also set out three trail cameras, and it was obvious deer were around, but their attendance was sparse and sporadic.  The trail cams are programmed to give the exact time the deer pass through and are activated by a motion sensor.  The recorded action was slow on the ridges, but there were deer, bear, and squirrels occasionally using our hunting locations.
