[QUOTE="orkan, post: 2630634, member: 25377"] What a fun day yesterday. Didn't find anything I wanted, but it was a great day in the field. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/4ymt5nGh.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/OnMC9h4h.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/Lw0Z2PKh.jpg[/IMG] Saw this one first. Little guy all by his lonesome at 1150'ish yds. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/ACecyAJh.jpg[/IMG] I always have tea in the morning. :) [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/kjSXWQsh.mp4[/IMG] Shortly after that, I spotted this one a little over 1300yds out. He was definitely worth a closer look. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/w3JzsFoh.jpg[/IMG] I saw the general direction they were headed, and quick stuffed everything back in my pack. There was a nice wash they were headed toward, and I could drop down in that and get out in front of them without them seeing me. So I beat feet down in the bottom until I came to a nice spot where I could setup an ambush. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/0hq9sQIh.jpg[/IMG] I lost sight of them down in the rough when I got there. However, I was fairly confident they'd come up toward me at some point. They certainly were not in a hurry. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/yURKU3bh.jpg[/IMG] There's nothing more satisfying than knowing animals well enough to predict their movements to this degree. It took them a while, but eventually they came up right where I thought they would. I got a great look at that buck. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/U3W4RwAh.jpg[/IMG] Nice, but just not what I'm looking for. He had a little mass and had some height... but not much curl there, not very long prongs, and definitely not very wide. He wouldn't have scored well at all, but probably would have went 13'ish or so on length. Maybe 14. He gets a pass. [MEDIA=imgur]aoDgLpS[/MEDIA] I spent the rest of the day out wandering around. Came across a few more small bucks, and 2 solid prospects that were way too deep to go for toward the end of the day. I'll see if I can hook up with them for a closer inspection a different day. ----------- [URL='https://www.instagram.com/primalrights']Follow on Instagram[/URL] [URL='https://www.youtube.com/user/primalrights']Subscribe on YouTube[/URL] [URL='https://amzn.to/3txlBnp']Amazon Affiliate[/URL] [URL='http://www.primalrights.com'][IMG]http://primalrights.com/images/signatures/sig1.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/QUOTE]
