A last minute buck brings a bobcat to the door

Hello Folks!

The last buck of the season brought a big surprise to this ole boy.  I was set up in my ground blind, the last day of deer season, the last hours of the day, when movement caught my eye.  And, there was a big ole tom bobcat.  I thought he'd just look around, and then go on his way, but the rascal headed right for the door of my blind.  He was about six feet away when I shut the door.  There simply was not enough room for ole Luke and that cat in the blind.

That really got me going!

I did take home a nice buck, field dressed it, and took it on over to Ashley Gorman.  Ashley's a fourth generation butcher.  His granddaddy was a butcher for the calvary.   

Take a look at the slide show, and give a listen to the audio postcard.  I'll tell you the tale of the day, and introduce you to Ashley at Gorman's Meat Market.
