My season (short as it was) was great. I only had 3 days to hunt during a 10 vacation from Iraq, so that left very few options. As luck would have it a friend of mine took me to his place in Orangeburg county. The first day he shot at about 7:00 am right at first light, taking down a 7 point 158 lb , about 5 minutes later I took out a 115 doe (freezer meat)
The next morning we went back and vefore daylight I was watching through my nv monocular a heard of about 20 does and maybe 4 bucks feeding. Sitting there waiting for shooting light (legal) I change over to my rifle and can see sillouttes of the next offering to my freezer. withen about 2 minutes Im already zoomed in on the doe I want and my scope goes black, quick zoom out and its a beutiful 8 point. I guess you know the rest of the story, he now resides in my freezer. All this was in mid oct and he was already swollen and stunk to high heaven.
So to sum it up my short season was great thanks to Greg taking me to his property and letting me sit.
Thanks for friends
Now Im back in the desert and still have a itchy trigger finger, but it will have to wait till next year
