A new year and missing blogs

New gate and arch

broken arrow and broad head found in the buck

I haven't been blogging as much as I used to but noticed my blogs from 2016 are gone. Mystery. Anyway a shot a decent 8 point last year which made #65. But having some time off and cold weather got the deer moving. After being overrun with bucks last year this year has been slim. Except this brute that walked under my stand and the old crossbow let the air out of him. And what a buck, 24" spread with a rough score of 167 1/2. Best deer I've ever killed let alone seen. Got my truck replaced with one 2 yrs older , but almost identical. The wildest thing is I found a broke arrow and broad head between the shoulder blades. Somebody was sick when they lost this deer. But he showed no sign. Also redid the front gate with steel wheel and elk antler
