Hello everyone, new WI deer hunter here. I’ve killed one deer so far...earlier this month a small doe with my longbow. I’m learning a lot mostly via trial and error. Ok here’s my question. We got 8” of snow last night and a windy day today- perfect conditions for sneaking around without being heard. I snuck within 20 yds of a bedded buck today in a grassy brushy area. I was following his fresh tracks in the snow and saw one of his beds.(which had a nasty splat of mushy scat in it - does that just mean he’s eating grass?) followed his tracks another 60 yards and I saw him laying down. I watched for about 30 min and he got up and stretched and saw me sitting on the ground almost right away. He stomped his foot for 15 min and then relaxed and slowly walked away broadside. It’s antlerless only here for the next few days, so I couldn’t shoot. He had only one antler and it was only 6” or so. Enough of the story- how do I kill him come Jan 2nd?
Thanks
Thanks
