For the past two years I’ve been deer hunting with Rebecca from the Bass Pro Next Generation Team and we seem to have a problem. We have yet to put a deer on the ground! We are not trophy hunting either. We are going into the field with the “If it’s brown, it’s down” theory.
If we are bow hunting we can’t get a deer within 50 yards of us and if we are rifle hunting we can’t seem to get a deer within 600 yards! The bad thing about it is I’ve been on a roll this year. It seems that everywhere I’ve been, we’ve been having good luck with harvesting an animal.
Well this past week I went to Roanoke, VA to do a deer hunt with Rebecca. They were calling for rain, but I didn’t know we were going to need an Ark to hunt out of. The first morning we sat in a double ladder stand and did not see any deer. We got out of the stand about 10:30 a.m. and shortly afterwards it began to rain. I don’t mean a drizzle. It poured. It rained 15″ the first 2 days. We didn’t let the rain slow us down, we hunted out of ground blinds, but we just didn’t see any deer.
Rebecca and I joked that we have a black cloud hanging over our heads and need to get rid of it. We both have success when we are not with each other, but you put both of us together with a video camera and you can forget getting any deer close.
Maybe we need to try our luck in Texas! 
Now if you put a rod in her hands, we have no problem getting the fish on tape!!!!!
