A Buck for Luke

Of the four of us in our main group and a half dozen other friends, Luke is the only one that saw any action today when he got a small six point buck at about 8:00 in the morning.  I saw three doe and Luke saw about three more as well but that was pretty much it.

As per tradition we took Luke's deer to Schmidt's Ballroom/bar to get it registered and to enter it in the buck pool.  The guy doing the registering said that he'd only seen 60 deer over the weekend.  Normally by the end of opening weekend he would have registered 300 deer.  Apparently we're not the only ones not seeing deer this year.  The weather is supposed to cool throughout the week with any luck that will get the deer moving.

Reminds me of when my grandfather would pull up in our driveway with his first deer of the season. To me it always meant that snowmobiling was right around the corner!
