Opening This Weekend

This Saturday is opening day of Archery season here in NC. Do to my injuries earlier in the year I can hunt but I am going with my friend. I am going to try and video tape his hunt so hopefully I have some good stuff to follow this up with.
Early Goose season is open too along with Dove Season so if we strike out deer hunting we might try and get into some birds.

No we are actually hunting private land we got permission to hunt. I hunted on base last year and it just seemed too crowded and the base game wardens are ridiculous. They miss marked a unit on base last year and I had to go to court and explain why I was hunting turkeys in a unit that was closed for the day when they had marked it as open. Needless to say I didn't get in any trouble.

Well this past weekend was a bust. We were in the stands well before light and setting there waiting. We started to here some movement and it ended up being a stray dog. The dang thing stayed near by all morning long barking and cahsing squirrels around. So the mornin hunt was ruined. Never got a clear shot or we would have taken care of him.
Afternoon hunt was about perfect except when the deer started moving the rain started. Rather than moving out of the woods to feed they hung tight just out of range and bedded to wait out the rain. Needless to say we didn't have any kills so we are waiting till next weekend. If possible we may get out one or two evenings this week but we will just have to see.
