I am back in time for deer season.

I almost quit blogging again but there is something about putting down your own thoughts and experiences that I can't explain. It doesn't even matter if anyone reads it or not I feel compelled to write. I am looking forward to the 26th and the opening of archery season this year. I will start to fill the freezer with venison again. First I will have a go at some Eastern Gray Squirrels tomorrow up in Cove Creek. It will do me and the boy good to bust out into the wilds of East Tennessee for a morning of stalking the elusive Sciurus Carolinenis. Latin names for animals is what I learned at UT in the Wildlife and Fisheries program, I learned about animals in the woods. I guess that is why they call it a BS degree. God Bless .

  1. Glad to see you're back. My boy and I are gonna hit the squirrels on Wednesday. They get the day off school!

    Are you of the same opinion as I am when I say the gray squirrel is better tasting than the fox squirrel?

  4. I am in complete agreement Wandering owl. Fox squirrels are less common where I live so it is exciting to come across a few. But you are more likely to eat fried gray squirrel and leave the Foxes for the crock pot.
