    Hoar Frost walk

    Decided to take the 222 for its first walk,deer like the sun which shines on their patch about 2pm to 4pm.Arrived at my spot,minus 3 degrees and hoar frost fog down to about 2 mtrs above ground level.Lots of matagari spaced apart,good for walking thru.Could only see about 30 to 50 yrds around me.Walked quietly for about 10 minuts,started to see fresh prints,maybe 2 deer.Then came across a big pile of fallow poop,steam was rising off it.Woow fresh as.Theres was a few trees ahead.So quietly walked behind the matagari bushs watching the trees.Stopped and watched a bit then a stick broke,loud crack,thumb,thumb,thumb,then a fallow spiker broke cover for about 2 seconds between trees n bush.No time for a shot,but theres next time.
    Only photo I got was his left overs,lols.But it was exciting knowing they are ghosting amongst the hoar frost for winter hunting.
