In the ER with a blood clot in my leg. I'm supposed to limit my physical activity. The doctor said no jumping or jogging. He didn't say no climbing trees or walking through the woods. I'll assume I can still hunt this weekend. Are they giving you anything to dissolve it ? take it easy. I'll be on blood thinners for 6 months.

Sitting in a thick pinch point along a creek. Wind is kinda squirrely right now. I dont like that at all.

Waiting for my wife to get home, she wants me to take her behind the house with the crossbow. She will settle for a big doe. I think she is planning to babysit the granddaughter Saturday morning while the kids hunt.

Look into Nattokinase. OTC, natural and not a big pharma blood thinner. Gained a kit of traction since "the virus" and all the clotting.
Got out last night, 6 pm doe, a 6 pointer and a small eight behind her a few minutes, they were obviously interested in checking her out, but not chasing her, seemed much more interested in picking at each other.
It's right there tho, one stink bomb in the woods and here we go.
Back out same spot, only stand for the south west wind here.
Good luck. God bless.

Some bigguns starting to show up, but mostly at night still. Lots of does and small bucks during daylight. Saw a forky chasing a young doe the last time I was out there. Planning to sit all day tomorrow and see what it produces.

2 small bucks harassing a doe in cornfield. She wanted nothing to do with them.

I sat the food plot tonight. 4 does and 2 fawns. At dark a nice young funky racked buck came in to pester them.

Finally had a doe make her way to within 30 yards but slightly quartered too. I told her aim on the ball of the shoulder. Made it 35 yards!

Scrub I hope that your clot goes away. I have had mine and been on blood thinners for 10 years. I do get blood flow around it so doctors won’t do anything about it. The only thing that is bad about it is that my leg swells, and I had to have a filter put in to have my knee replacement surgery. It does help if you put your leg up on the back of the couch while you are laying down on it.

I'm hoping I caught it early enough to dissolve it. With my families history of clots I knew what to watch for. My grandfather passed away from a clot that broke loose after a surgery.
