    Opening weekend - Smoke N Feathers - Where bullet and shafts lead us



    Opening weekend

    Well it finally got here and was a little slow with the full moon and 90+ degree heat. We seen one doe saturday morning, had ants eat us up in the ground blind and got good and hot. Our buddy Dale did manage to kill a sow and 3 pigs sat. morning and would have had more if his gun wouldnt have malfunctioned on him. We have a lot of hogs this year! That evening me and Ashlyn went and got in another stand and hadnt been there just a few minutes when we realized it had red wasps in it!! She got stung once in the leg and we abandoned ship and went to another stand. About 6:30 we had 2 young 8pts and a 7 pt come out. They were only 2 1/2 yo deer so we just watched them till they left. At about 7pm I noticed a larger buck coming down the lane, after watching him for about 15minutes with light running out, I decided to let Ashlyn take the shot since he was at least 3 1/2 yo and had 8pts up top but no brow tines. She got on him but shot just a hair low missing him clean. I couldnt believe she missed, she never misses. She was shooting 410 hulls the other day. Oh well, if you hunt long
