Up around Bracken County, it's looking like scattered rain on Saturday and then sunny on Sunday. I'm guess my best shot will be the afternoon of Saturday, but you can bet I'll be somewhere out there in the morning.
One of my biggest disappointments was on the Saturday afternoon of ML in 2002. It was pouring pitchforks and tarbabies, and I was sitting in a barn watching the world get dark. This BIG buck came out and walked right towards me. I had him dead on with a brisket shot at 30 yards.
Pop! The humidity had gotten to my cap. The buck stayed long enough to laugh at me while I fumbled for another cap, before taking off. I emptied the barrel into the dirt just behind him to show him I should not be taken lightly.
He's back again this year-- neighbor saw him. He's got a high tight basket that makes him unique.
