Trying a high risk high reward manuver. I've watched a huge buck at about 300 yards out walking the field edge in the upper field while I've been in a ground blind clear on the other side of the bottom field. Then he eventually came down along the far side of the bottom field pushing does. I've slipped as quietly as I could into the ladderstand at the edge of the upper field hoping he comes by one more time. Good luck

I'm set up on the ground watching a gap. Two does just came behind me and got to less than 10 feet before they spooked.

1, 2, 3 punch for opening gun weekend...
1-Daughter is starting a cold. 2-In the 10 years or so that we have hunted this woods where we have permission, we have yet to see the first deer if it were raining. 3-This woods seems particularly susceptible to blowdowns in high winds. Over the summer we had one just miss our elevated blind near the creek. For the last few years I refuse to be in that woods when it is very windy.
This weekend is out for us!

Just seen the sixth buck of the day. The biggest being a 120 inch 8 pointer. All of which my daughter passed waiting for a big buck. We did shoot a coyote. It’s been a fun hunt so far.

I have either gotten softer or smarter. Zero deer sightings before noon and it's raining steady. I am heading in. We will see what this afternoon looks like.

Well over 200 shots now, but I’m done counting. Had another or the same spike moving along with some other deer in the bottom I couldn’t make out.
