Tuesday 10/25/16 Bushy Hunting.

Post by HunterGKS »

Got into “my” deer woods at 12:22 with a temp of 47 & no wind. I swapped the card in my trail cam & settled into my blind waiting for the squirrels to show up. The 1st 1 passed by about 30 yards to my right without stopping. Then, at 01:33, 1 came in from behind me on the right within 5’ of the blind. It went up & down a tree next to the blind & then took off down the dead fall & into the woods.

At 02:19, a fox showed up in the combined bean field & I took the shot. It was a young female at 53 paces or about 160’. Between then & 02:53, at least 4 more showed up in the field but all were too far out for a shot.

The woods I hunt is basically in the shape of an “L” with me sitting just about in the corner & the squirrels were coming out of the side woods. They started combining the corn on the south side of the woods at about the same time as the last bushy showed up. I didn’t think the combining would have any effect but I didn’t see any more & headed home at 04:30.

The puff ball that I started taking pics of back on 09/27, is just about gone.

TURKEYS
COYOTES
DEER
SQUIRRELS
