Thats the end of the trail for me .....two more weekends 
What a horrible season it has been
If I had been shooting the compound I would have 4 deer down right now but as it were I have 1 down
Some of the most freak occurrences I have been witness too in years (and years) have kept me from claiming three of the 4 deer shot.
Coyotes took one
One took an arrow but the arrow only took one lung and the deer never bedded
just walked away.
Even the dog ran out of track 1/2 mile down the road
The last was on camera and the shot looked so good (with a pass through) that we started celebration right there in the stand as the deer looked on.
That deer put 1000 yards between us and he with 4 beds and the dog lost him 12 hours later
Just a ridiculous turn of events.
I wounded more deer this year as it pertains to none recovery as I have in the last 20 years
So....
The Compound comes out for the next two weeks because I cant afford to go the year with an empty freezer even if I can make due without
This is personal now!
