Got together with 2 other hunters up in the Westchester Woods. I did a little coin shooting and I shot a few deer with my camera.
The temps got a little chilly because a wind kept trying to cut through the trees, but we stuck it out until about 3;30 P.M.
The pickings were slim,, 2 Wheat Pennies, (52d & toast), a 1966 pigeon band, and a 1912d Barber dime.
Always grateful for a little silver

A day in the woods is good for the soul, but finding a little silver lifts the heart. Congratulations!

You got some nice shots of the deer, if you took those with your phone you were pretty darn close to them. Just thinking of those backstraps on the grill makes me hungry, yummy!
Nice hunt, four keepers and a beautiful day in the woods, can't beat it.

I counted 8 deer in the herd that moved through the area where I was swinging my coil. They were in no rush or spooked by me being there. They probably know that that hunting in this area is allowed only in October and November.

Careful out there in the woods on those windy days. I don't want to read how you met up with a "widow maker" out there. ;)

Nice finds!

Have you ever found a antler shed while detecting in the woods? I think I might hit the woods, sheds are dropping right now
