I tried the 6-5-1 this afternoon, needed a little heavier weather. I hunted the timber and I couldn't get quiet enough in the salal. If I had some weather I think I could have got a mature animal. I just kept getting busted.

I had a broadside doe (small) at 70 yards but let her off. Then just as I lowered my gun a mature buck came running from right behind me and bounded off before I got a shot. He just let me walk by him. I saw 5 deer this afternoon, hopes are high for this weekend.
