Congratulations goes out to Dave Malboeuf on tagging his first Buck ever at Caribou Log Cabin Resort! Good for you Dave! Out in the stand for a mere 4 hours and Dave came in with a beautiful 9 point buck and a big smile on his face! Dave also bagged his first doe ever here at the resort last year!Needless to say, there was a bit of celebrating and then back to woods for the afternoon hunt! We are in full rut and the deer are on the move!
After settling myself in 1/2 way up a ridge and hunkering down as much as possible to make myself small and sheltered from the wind, I was ready for action...Soon after settling in I heard a snort off to my right, but passed it off as buck fever and ignored it! Another hour and 1/2 passed and low and behold another, louder snort was heard. This time I was sure that it was not buck fever!! Slowly reaching for my gear, I have discovered that I have forgotten my deer calls back at the lodge!! Hard to call the big guys in that way! Then more snorting! OMG so close and yet so far...you can bet that I will be fully prepared when I next head out to the ridge!
All in after dusk for beverages and chats about our exciting day! Then early to bed for all and hunting resumed this morning. Good Luck Hunters!
