Well I've got my fingers crossed this morning that a doe or buck comes by me. Truck is showing 33 degrees so Im hoping the deer come cruising by looking to hit a hillside of acorns to feed and soak up the sunshine.
Best of luck to y'all and happy hunting.

Do it once and I say you're lucky. Do it twice and you must be good!

I slipped in at home during the night and checked the cams I have near stands that work for a south wind. Only nighttime buck activity at those spots, so I'm back where I sat last night. Bumped a deer coming in. I'm all settled now and ready for daylight.

The little one and I are back at it. Tucked into a ghillie blind which reminded me how much I hate zippers on a blind especially with No wind!

Not a great start to the morning. I got to my ghillie blind and the door zipper was stuck. After fussing with it for a few minutes it finally opened. Or so I thought. I went to close it only to find it was unzipping again. While trying to fix that the blind material next to the zipper tore. After zip tying the door shut, I realized I left my phone in my vehicle. That's something that doesn't bother me one bit but, my wife would have have a full blown panic attack if she couldn't get ahold of me. And due to her poor health, I hate not having it. So I made a mad dash back to my vehicle to retrieve it. Once I finally got settled in i had to say a prayer to get rid of the frustrations. All is well now!
Good luck all!

I'm laying low. Back is okay, but it's my quads and or one behind it. Flared up again this morning. I think I was on to much yesterday. Staring out the window and seen one small buck.

I wound up seeing 8, 3 small bucks and the remainder being does/fawns.
I've got some chores this afternoon, not sure if I'll get to hunt tonight or not.
