Hunting Muscatatuck NWR today....all quiet so far. About 10 trucks in line at the gate. Also, gate did not open till 6:45 am so when they say one before sunrise, it’s true. No sense on getting here early for all those other hunters who were drawn. Let us know how your day goes. Im drawn for Wednesday. Saw a small 6 pointer at 5:15 but did not shoot him. No other deer seen on an all day sit.

Zero shots heard and zero deer Seen at Muscatatuck NWR so far today. Blue Herons are being very loud in swamp and can’t hear anything. Planning on sitting till 2 pm and then moving to a spot accessible from the perimeter road.

Yeah I spotted some road hunters yesterday and wanted to post a pic and couldn’t make it happen Here they are... Love the picture! Funny thing is I have seen the Amish road hunting on horseback in Switzerland County. You never see a deer next to an Amish farm in Switzerland County.

Light rain in Switzerland county with a light breeze. Hunting our 6x6 Terrain tower stand. Nice and dry plus very comfortable office chairs to sit in and a shelf for my coffee cup.

Great morning so far. Seen 10 so far. Bucks are cruising! Had a basket rack 8 point run in to my grunt call. My 12 year took the day off School to to go hunting. Outdoor education day for him. Saw a 4 point tear up a tree about 40 yards from us. Best hunting day of the year!

Very very windy but we are sitting in a bottom so somewhat calm between gusts. We saw one die sneak past at around 9 am. Nothing else.

How it looking down there today at BO’s It's a little gusty, but not terrible yet. It took about 1.5 hours of walking, but I finally found some good sign and am set up for the day. What area at BO are you hunting?

It's been an active morning. Had a doe and 120 to 130 8pt in front since 7am. Both doe and buck I put the scope on, but didn't pull the trigger. Both easy 20 yard shot. Should have taken the doe. Chasing phase in full throttle What county are you hunting in?

All day in the stand yesterday not a deer seen trying a new stand this am I don’t why but it seems the deer moved out of my area for the time being Trying to go all day again don’t know if my butt and back can take it 10 hours for me yesterday and ZIP! It's easy to get discouraged, but they are here somewhere. I saw 5 deer yesterday all between 9 am and 1 pm. Nothing in the evening and sat all day. Deer should move mid day because of the full moon.

Had two young 10 pointers walk by at 70 yards at 9 am. Grunted at them but they kept walking. Wind is ridiculous today - swirling from every direction - hunting in Switzerland county - vacation day from work
