Descriptive Essay On My First Deer

First, At about eleven o'clock I was riding around on my deer lease just listening to music and looking for deer. Also I was checking my game cameras. Next, I checked my deer camera and I thought I would make a circle and see if I could see any deer. So we are about halfway through making a circle and we start seeing some deer. Also, we saw a really big ten point, but it's about eleven thirty now and it's getting frigid .

As we were leaving at dusk to head back to camp after not seeing anything just up the valley from us we heard two shots and later found out that in the area we first started in that morning another person got a moose. The next day we went out at about the same time as the day before and went to a new spot. When we arrived there we walked for about an hour and then stopped because we thought we could hear something down the hill from us moving in the brush. Sure enough it was a moose but it was very hard to see and i couldn’t get a shot at it. We only got a glimpse of it for a few seconds and then it was gone. It is crazy how such a big animal can just disappear like it did without any sign. After that we kept going and the only other sign we saw that day was a shed from the year before that had been partially eaten by mice. We went home after that and the next couple of days were very much the same. Then it came to our final day of the hunt. We woke up very early that morning determined and excited to go to a spot we had to been to yet. We got to the new spot and hiked for about an hour before we came to a fresh trail where a moose had not passed through more than a few minutes before us. We most likely scared the animal as we were approaching the trail. We

It’s a brisk November morning like any other day, but today isn’t any other day, today is the first day of firearm deer season. Shots are going off everywhere like world war three declared on deer. I’m wrapped in every hunting garment I own but winters cold embrace always finds its way in. My cheeks are rosy red and my breath was thick in the air. As I raise my shotgun and pull the trigger, my heart races and my hands shake. As I race after my prize, the sounds of leaves crunching beneath my feet are muffled by the ringing in my ears. I’m walking face to the ground like a hound on a trail and then my eyes caught it, my very first whitetail. I will never forget my first deer and the joy I felt sharing it with my family. Hunting

Me and my dad are sitting in a treestand. We have seen a couple does. A couple small bucks but no shooters. It is still the morning so we still have time.

Late fall early winter about 3:00 in the afternoon. Me and my dad get in our stand and wait. After about 15 minutes of waiting one comes up the hill. A 7 point buck around 100 yards out. I get the gun up and put it in my sights. I take a deep breath and pull the trigger. Everything goes silent except for the echo of the gun shoot. I look out and see it had dropped in its tracks. My first deer was laying there on the ground.

Sunday is starting to get going and I’m more anxious than ever to finally get my deer I have been searching for since 2011.

This tradition has been going on for over 20 years. Sitting and driving over 800 acres of forest and field land, on the prowl for that prize. Morning started out cold as every November day would, the deer were lying low in their beds and not moving much. The Chicago drive is always what we push in the morning, because it always produces some fresh meat.

Tired but still moving slowly, as quiet as he can be. The one thing onmy mind, finding something to kill, anything. I Imaging shooting the biggest deer I can think of.Maybe even a bear that would really be impressive, I would hang his hide on the wall or maybeuse it for a blanket that would really nice for the cold winter nights. It’s so dark I can barely seethe trees in front of me, I hope there's nothing to twist my ankle on. That would be really baddragging a deer out of the woods is hard enough as it is. I’m already 2 miles into the woods atleast and the sun's coming up I don't need to find a place to sit and wait.

I Watched that deer eat for a few minutes, hoping that another deer would show. Then, as I was ready to give up, a movement deep in the woods caught my eye. I watched a deer walk out, and he mad the other buck look like a ant. I knew it was a buck, and I knew he was big. I was wondering how I could be sure he was a nice 8, when all of the sudden he turned his head and 2 snow-white popples silhouetted his antlers. I counted 8 points on his head, and began the process of making a shot. I grabbed my muzzleloader out of the corner. As I put the barrel out the window, I looked over my

If you told me that there would be a deer to attack me in the future, I would laugh at you and consider that you are crazy; until there was actually a deer attacked my fellow members and me when we were camping.

The most exhilarating thing that I have ever experienced was last winter when I shot my first deer. To some, this may seem like a simple task. Deer hunting takes a lot of time and patience. Although, it can get boring and aggravating, it can be a great experience if one takes these three steps. The first thing I did to shoot my first deer was find a good location to hunt at.

As the morning wore on I began to get anxious and fidgety feeling that no deer were going to come. As I was contemplating whether to leave my stand in the field, I recognized two deer grazing peacefully in the middle of the field. I quickly pulled up and looked through my scope and saw nothing but green fuzz. I was so nervous that I had forgotten to readjust the focus on my scope. As I did, the deer saw me move and began to trot away from me and into the protection of the forest. I managed to get my scope in focus in time to see that there was a buck and a doe. My chance had finally come. I was going to get my first Vermont buck. I immediately stood up from my stand and jogged over to where they had entered the woods. Once in the woods, I evaluated the surroundings and had a good
