Got to bed at around 4:30 am yesterday and was back up at 6:30 to go hunting. My buddy and I hunted hard all day beings it was the last day of rifle season. We walked cattail sloughs, thick brush, tree rows, crp fields, and everything in between. Lots of miles were put on out boots for sure. Still we only managed to kick up one small buck in some cattails and all we ever saw of him was his head as he was headed west as fast as he could. No venison for us this year, but it was nice to get out with friends that I don't usually get to see a lot of throughout the year. Here us a pic I took tonight right after the season ended as we were headed back to the pickup..
