Moved the new ground blind out to Dwayne's big back field. I set it up about 15 yards from the edge of the wood line right on top of a big scrape. Trimmed some downed branches and brushed the blind in pretty good.
Got back out around 2:30 p.m. or so, and things were quiet for most of the hunt. It was a little drizzly, and then finally started raining for about a half hour before dusk.
I was getting things back into the pack about 5:05 p.m. or so when I glanced up and saw a deer. He had to of came in from the south somewhere. I think its the big deer I played cat and mouse with all last year! I had been using a can bleat and a growl call most of the afternoon, so I gave the can call a try. The buck was a good 150 yards out, and took off like nobody's business at the sound of the can call. The second call sealed the deal and he was gone!
