yes they are rubbing already and he had 3 tips broken off. Can't tell you why. Hummmm, so you're telling me that you didn't have any photos of free-riding squirrels eating a snack? sure didn't. I don't run cameras

Got in fairly late due to working late. Didn’t jump anything on the way in and have yet to see anything. Assume it will be last light activity in the transition area I’m hunting due to the heavy wind and high temps. Moved out of the ground blind and back into the tree stand setup tonight. Good luck to everyone out there tonight.

Well I won't be out any this week or the weekend. Got a huge cook out this weekend and I have to cook all night Friday night after work. Apparently a foreman at work is having this cook out and just thought it would be hilarious to pick me to help cook, so much for my weekend of hunting. Its all good though, I don't have to pay for any of the beer or food and my family gets an awesome meal. It's a win win in my book 😂.

Smaller 8 point and spike out in front of me now. The 8 point needs about another year. Good sized body, he will be a good one next year if he makes it through.

Love this Tactacam Reveal Cell Trail Camera showing me what I’m missing . 12 yards from my stand. He just finished hitting the scrape by the cedar rubbing post .

From my observation, this weekend is way better suited for a cookout than for deer hunting! Plenty of season left, enjoy the party.

Yeah I've been keeping on the forecast and I'm not much on what I'm seeing. Sorry Team 8, but I'm not passing up free food and beer 😂. Especially when it's an all I can eat and drink and believe me I do both VERY WELL 😂

Going out in the morning to hunt bedding with the saddle. I know about where im going, cant even remember if I can get a platform anywhere, just need to get high enough to shoot over the grass. I'll stumble around in the dark till I figure it out.

I haven’t tried video.
I’m assuming it will send it to my phone?

Woody, Have you tried your camera in video mode at all? If you have does it send the video to the app? They do have pic + video mode but won’t send it to the app. Have to pull the card to get it. To large of a file I believe.

To large of a file I believe. Thanks H&P, I wondered if that was the case because you can’t put it in that mode from the app settings. I saw that there was the pic +video mode when I was scrolling through the options, but neglected to try it before I stuck the cam in the woods. Scott

I'm between food and bedding, tucked in between trunks of a black locust, maybe 75 yards off the road. I'm only 5 feet off the ground or so, just enough to shoot over the grass, and see a good ways.
I'm not as close to bedding as I wanted, but I knew I could get up here, I couldnt remember if there were any suitable trees right up in the bedding. With the way the crops are rotated, it should work out ok.
ETA: already had one blowing, wind is not what was forecasted, which is fine. Its really a coin flip on which way theyll come from. Im set up to shoot both sides.

The inherent problem with blindly setting up in the dark is not being able to adequately clear shooting lanes. Full draw on a doe at 5 yards, thermals got me before she cleared the branch.

Went to the archery shop during lunch and got a new peep sight. I had a small peep sight on my bow for shooting spots at the range. Bigger peep should improve my ability to see at last shooting light, especially hunting from the blind. I will be getting into the blind around 5 today.
