Finally settled in. After much debating I just decided to sit in the ghillie blind. The wind isn't right for the couple of stands I had in mind but it's perfect for this blind. I had my decoy out here underneath the haywagon so I thought it'd be fun to set it out too.
Good luck to all! Hunt safe and God bless!

I took a gamble on the weather tonight, and it looks like it's clearing up nice. Quite a bit more sign up on this ridge than when I was in here a week or two ago.

Headed out. Little damp and a little early, if there is such a thing, but I think the drizzle will stop soon and deer will cruise earlier. Just a hope anyhow. Ive had a couple does on my Tactacam Reveal Camera at 1:30.

3 PM doe taken from the ground while scouting where I wanted to put up this last stand. Paying attention pays off! Oh, and I found a nice bedding area ππ Hunting out of a chair in the am to hopefully get an old non typical / weird lookin fella I have at another spot , then putting the stand up on my way out.

Old one off Is it me or in that picture does it look like the crane beam is bending a bit? Ya itβs bending but that not bad Iβve seen worst when we sit big units with the 50 ton and they reach way out

Kicked a 6 point up on my way to the blind. Hopefully that doesn't screw up the evening.

Three does then a pretty nice 10 point. The buck ran when I grunted at him.

New one back Thing would be a nice tree stand you can up 40 foot or better without climbing one step other than to get in My boss bought a old used 1 that has a 25 ft reach. Says he's gonna use it as a tree stand. Gonna start the camo spray bomb and air brushing paint job in a few days. He went and cleared a spot for it over the weekend on his 93 acre plot. I asked him I could hunt out of it, but the answer was so bad I can't repeat it on here π.

Finally starting to get consistent cam pics. Got several doe's and the same buck I missed this past Saturday morning. Bad part about the buck is the pictures of him are after hours. Guess I really screwed up when I missed, now he's turned into a smart*** and calling me a dumb*** as he walks by π.

I decided not to go out since it was raining. So I decided to build 3 swarm boxes for next April. Two 7 frames and 1 9 frames boxes. Each box is 3 inches extra tall. Making the area bigger. Need to paint. I did see 2 small buck when I was building the boxes. Had to go back to house 3 times and twice saw one eating acorns.

I asked Morrison about something like that a few years ago (zoom boom or telehandler) and he said since it was motorized with wheels, unless it's up on jack stands it's considered to be the same as hunting out of a vehicle. So, to make it legal, have them jack it up so the wheels are off the ground.

Better put orange squares on it also, since you start and end at less than 4'!
Haha the silliness.

I accidentally stepped on my crossbow getting out of my climber last night. Upon inspection, the scope rail seemed loose. I took it apart, tightened everything down, reassembled and test shot it last night, and everything seems fine now.
Weather looks good for tonight, and buck movement seems to be picking up!

Saw 7. But only 1 buck a (100" ish) 8 point trailing a doe. She ran off finally and he ate acorns for a bit before heading off to bed. Don't think switch has been flipped yet but seeking definitely started. Should heat up this weekend.

Two decent bucks in the field after dark, camera says they came in together and ate turnips half the night together.
