Count me in!!  I didn't get to deer hunt much this fall but my limited time was VERY, VERY productive.  I had shoulder surgery back in August and was unable to bow hunt.  I did get approved for crossbow use but with a bum arm it just wasn't the same.  I had a mule deer hunt booked for November and was well enough to get to go.  Shot a nice one on the third morning.  We saw the buck the first morning and after a long stalk we spooked a different bedded deer and the game was up.  The morning I shot him we spotted him heading to bed about 800 yards out.  There were several does in the field and I guess he got a whiff of love in the air and headed straight back to us.  He popped up out of the creek 350 yards away and the .308 rang true.  Due to scheduling I thought that would end my hunting season.  But, the stars aligned and I was able to get one weekend at my Kentucky lease. On Sunday just a few hours before having to leave a nice 8 was chasing a doe in and out of a very thick cutover.  He stepped out just a little too far and I was able to connect.  Hopefully I'll be as lucky this spring!!  I'm off to a good start as I just found out I'll have 4 day weekends all spring.
