Legacy

I have been on the sideline for most of the week. Work, my kids basketball schedule, and the weather have all kept me out of the woods. With most of my errands done i am hoping to grind out the next couple of weeks in high hopes. Crazy windy here today, so i am taking the opportunity to move a stand with the hopes the wind helps hide the noise. Right on the edge of the field where the funnel meets thick bedding. The plan is to hunt it in the PM with a North West or West wind.

My buddy ran into some locals on his families hunting property on opening day 15+ years ago. He kinda knew them, they lived just up the road. He explained to them that his grandfather had passed away and no one other then family had permission to be there. Well the situation got ugly. Really ugly. And for no real reason other then it was deer season and they wanted to hunt there. So my short tempered buddy walked up to the barn, grabbed a chain saw, and returned back to woods. He then cut the tree down with their tree stand still in it while they watched. Needless to say, he never spoke to them again.

At about 7:10, I had a buck chase a doe fawn out of the neighbors woods into the field and back into the woods. Nice morning to be out! Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Saw some more chasing tonight. Out of the thicket, to the left side of the woods, then to the right, and right back into the thicket. Too far away to tell what was what. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I had a sheriff stop and talk to me at the road before I walked in. I guess a landowner on the far side of my block called the cops on a bunch of hunters trespassing. Sheriffs were aimlessly driving around looking for the group. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
