The lunacy has started. I volunteered to be a brush beater yesterday morning, the opening day of Deer Season in Eastern North Carolina. I did chase a 'Bullwinkle" out of the brush and sent it towards Mike. However, simultaneously, a six pointer walked across the field and the rest is history as recorded above. Brendan, 16 yr. old grandson of Gary unloaded his gun on a deer which disappeared. Grandpappy looked for a blood trail but couldn't find anything. Later in the morning, I suggested that we drive the field where the deer disappeared. About 1/3 of the way, I walked up on the deer lying dead in the brush. Glad I could be of help.

So, it was a successful morning with the harvest of one 6 point buck and a medium large doe. And I have a hind quarter in the freezer!
