Where the buck are the deer? I saw some unimpressive bucks earlier in the season but now I’m seeing a whole lot of does. My brother was successful today and bagged himself a buck; he had gone up to Gaylord hunting.  I’m seeing pictures of brag worthy bucks that other people have shot, so I know there out there. I sure wish we weren’t having temperatures twenty degrees below normal, when you’re not seeing anything it’s nice to say you enjoyed your time outside. These temperatures are brutal. I guess if I were a deer I would bunker down somewhere in thick grass and try to stay warm too.

                I was driving home yesterday with my mother’s truck when a huge six point walked out and stood in the road ahead of me. I seem to be seeing a lot of deer while I’m in an automobile. Maybe if I drive out to my hunting spot and sit in my vehicle with my windows down I might have a buck show up.

                I passed on hunting today and went shopping instead; I had better luck with that. I went to my favorite spot and low and behold success, everything I was looking for was there. If only hunting were this easy. You would probable think it wouldn’t be fun then, but I beg to differ. There is something very satisfying about success. After all fishing is always fun when you know their biting, and Its great mushroom picking when you know their up. If I only knew there was a huge buck that was going to eventually show itself, I would sit out there from sunup till sundown.

                Well I’m off to Buffalo Wild Wings to eat. I’ll go on a diet free of red meat. I’ll become one with the deer. Just kidding, I just like Buffalo Wild Wings. Its eight o’clock, which is prime time for deer to be crossing the road, so I’m sure I will see plenty of them. It’s funny, I go all day trying to see a deer, and then when I’m driving a vehicle you hope to God that you don’t hit one. If it wasn’t for the possibility of an air bag smacking me in the face, damaging my vehicle, and my insurance premium going up, I would take them as I could get them. Since I don’t want any of the above to happen, I’ll continue to sit out in the cold.
