Well Saturday was opening day here in VA. and for me its like being a child waiting for Christmas day. The night before, I tossed and turned anticipating and anxious for the alarm clock to go off. When I finally fell asleep around 1:30AM I had only three hours before having to wake and head for the woods <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />. The morning outing saw plenty of deer but nothing close enough or willing to play. That evening around 6:00 PM the deer started moving and the end result was two nice does spaced thirty plus minutes apart. I have decided to hangup my compound this season and go strictly traditional this year. After harvesting my two beasts, I put the WD to work. I need to put more of an edge on the WD but needless to say it has had plenty of use these last five weeks. With a sharper blade this will be a fantastic field knife for hunting.
