RE: Got one! -
Congratulations!
I see you are in the Southern Tier. I live and hunt in the northern zone, but I have a daughter and son-in-law who built a new home in the southern tier....but they have woods out back!......all the more reason for me to visit next hunting season!
Again, good for you!

RE: Got one! -** updated pictures **
Another quick picture - I was hunting in an old overgrown apple orchard on the property. Tha apples are just incredible in here - unfortunately there are several other places like it - and one never knows if the deer will come in in time for a shot.
The buck came from behind me - and to the left side of the picture. Several bucks had been chasing a doe through the area - and I was grunting trying to bring them, or one of them in - After they all ran down the hill for the last time - I thought we were done. But this guy snuck in - and I almost had no shot! He walked in line woth the bent over ash in the picture (left of center) - He was huffing and licking his lips as he walked quickly looking for " the doe" . Finally he slowed, and I had a " window" between the branches of the horizontal ash in the picture. The shot was good.
Thanks for reading.
