Well with work and kids sport schedule craziness, I finally got to get out for a sit. Man what a sit it was. Wildlife central tonight.
8 Raccoons, 3 Bard owls, hawks, and deer spread out through the evening made for plenty of action.
Bumped what looked like a 4 or 6 as soon as I got to my tree. Around 530 heard some clicking and through the brush with the binos at 80-90 yds had 2 bucks sparring for 10 minutes. The smaller one then came right at me at 100 and stood 15 yds broadside. Little 4 point about 110 lbs he gave me a beautiful shot 3 times but passed on that one, he hung around for next 20 minutes then went back to other and sparred for another 10 minutes. Very cool to watch, don't get to actually witness that too often. I never got a better look at the other but I believe was bigger, he appeared to win the battle both times.
Finished the night off with a big hefty doe at 80 yds but she wouldn't come any closer.
Interestingly enough more raccoons surrounded my tree as I was getting down, almost had to beat them off with a stick...lol
All in all, great way to start the season.
Now for the big boys to come by.
Good luck to everyone this season!
