Well, I must be getting old. I have always prided myself on having a really good game eye. My brothers and I would always play animal spotting games on trips around Montana when we were kids. We even had a scoring system set up (i.e. 10 pts for an elk, 5 for a deer etc.). My favorite type of hunting is the spot and stalk for mule deer. I would do it year round if they would let me.
Saturday my wife and kids and I went out to take some pictures of a 4 acre piece of ground we are trying to sell. Almost every time we go, there are a few deer on the land. I thought showing a few pics of the deer on the land might help sell it. When we got there, the deer were no where around. I ran around the 4 acres and took pictures from about 20 different angles and then we came home. Tonight I was looking at them, trying to choose which ones to use in the advertising and I found this picture. I must be getting old. Obviously there is a muley doe in the CENTER of the picture standing there looking at me. I was less than 100 yards from her (probably closer to 60). I never saw her at all until I looked at this picture. About 60 seconds after I took this picture, I moved to about where she was standing and got more pictures from that angle. I am a little disgusted with myself that I didn't see her even one time. As you can see, there are some trees, but there is a lot of open ground too. I didn't think that 36 was very old, but maybe it is!
Later,
