Been a slow day.
I did however just watch a bobcat go airborne trying to catch a turkey that was flying over its head...and then it walked right to me.

Big goose egg here thus far. Even the 50 acre bean field doesn’t have a deer in it.

Been a day Started out good seen some does and maybe some chasing still don’t know what the two fawns were running from Then the wind came it was rough Looked like rain but it never came Then they got the honey wagon out swear I still smell it in my nose I moved to my creek stand had three does come out about 80 yards out on the tractor/ crp strip started feeding right to me all of a sudden I hear a buck grunt thinking to myself this is going to get good does keep feeding right to me about 30 yards I’m still hearing a buck grunting should I shoot or wait I waited big mistake a small buck ran out of the woods and pushed them right through the creek crossing and into the ground behind me got to watch them in the field behind me for sometime running around but I don’t have permission to hunt that ground

I didn't see any antlers this evening. Maybe in the morning. I have my dad's old stand that I have been saving for the opening day of firearm season. I'm sure missing him this season.

Passed on a tall 4 pointer , that’s the only deer I saw in 4-5 hours. He had a body bigger than most does , and I only passed because I have to go downtown for a friends birthday. Took me a couple minutes to make that decision lol he looked yummy.

Lots action daylight to noon. Saw 8 different bucks ( 2 mature shooters)all were chasing or locked on a doe. So close to taking a nice mature 8 but he skirted just out of my bow comfort range at 45 yards. Spent 9.5 hours in tree today and am tired and little sick. May set out the weekend , will see how I feel in morning.

About 45 minutes before dark an anterless deer came flying down the hill and stopped at 25 yards behind a tree. "It's on!" I thought. Well unfortunately it was a button buck. He fed awhile then a spike came along and started bullying him. Eventually they parted ways and drifted away. Ready to fling some lead tomorrow at a mature buck.

I was watching some hens fly across the power line cut, and when the last few were about to land on the other side, I saw the bobcat fly into the air and try to grab one of the hens. My jaw about dropped to the bottom of the tree stand. It didn't manage to grab one of them, and immediately started heading my direction. I was able to get my camera out and get the best footage I've taken of a bobcat, so far.

The action packed last 2 days I had has played out here. Seen 5 doe and 1 forkhorn this morning. Seeing or hearing no chasing, etc. at all today. Hoping tomorrow will be better. Same here. Going crazy then slammed on the brakes. Was fun while it lasted. anyhow had to head to the butcher to pick up my urban zone Buck get the meat in the freezer and take it to the taxidermist. Then I’m heading back down to the camper hopefully with my daughter. One last look until it’s time to go on the wall... imgur.com/a/2wreyE7Nice!!
