Hung my climber for an East wind in the morning about 100 yards above a pond, and now I'm in the same ridgetop ladder stand as this morning. Pretty windy up here on top. How was the sandwich? Good luck, I stayed in. Back at it tomorrow Wasn't anything to write home about -- definitely not Holt's competition. And don't get the onion rings! Lol!

I went dawn to dusk today and it wore me out. Tiring work not seeing any deer and trying to will them to appear. Actually had a couple walking around under my stand for a few minutes a half hour before light. I got excited hoping I had a live decoy and would soon be overrun with bucks. That did not happen. The deer wandered off and I saw nothing until 1030. Then a button buck at four. And then what looked like two does and two fawns in the cut corn behind me an hour before dark. No bucks with them. I think I will pull another all day sit tomorrow. Seeing all these good deer getting killed is motivating.

Looks like I’ll be hunting Big Oaks tomorrow. Had to go scrounging around looking for my rifle ammo.

Today was the first day in the last week that I didn't see a single deer.

Saw more bucks today than whole season combined. 3 small this a.m., 3 small and 3 mature this afternoon. Find a hot doe and the bucks will be there. The 1 buck I woulda shot stayed with doe of course , but just seeing the action made for a fun day. Wind is making a big switch to N-NE which is bad news for this set. so making a big switch to south end of farm where wind is favorable for tomm.

Went this morning set up for a north wind and saw nothing. Set up on a tree line watching a disced corn field and saw 10, all within 10-20 yards. 3 small buck’s chasing 5 does in and out of the woods all around me for 45 minutes then at last light two mores does right in front of me. Got down and a 6? Point circled wide around me.

Say same set as last night where I had 3 mature bucks within 10 yards after shooting light. Didn’t see any Higgins tonight. Had a doe come by at 50 acting real skittish, then a fork horn came by within 20. Also saw a doe way out in the field about 250 yards away. Got down a few minutes after legal and snuck out to the road. Walking the road back to my truck, I had 2 deer in the ditch 10 yards from me. They had no clue I was there. Ended up seeing 6 more deer on my property driving out. Will be in the same set tomorrow morning and then switch to my stand on the west side of the property around 10:30 when the wind is switching to east. Got this pic a little while ago from 20 yards in front of one of my stands out there; I believe this is the same deer I had at 10 yards last night 6 minutes after legal.

Well things came together this AM. Was watching 2 does feed in the persimmons when a forkhorn came by chasing another doe. While watching those deer I heard another walking, turned to me left and this guy came walking in. Figured he would continue his path for a broadside shot but nope, he turned and walked right at me. Adrenaline then kicked in as this was the one I had on camera a few times. I drew as he walked through a few saplings and when he stepped into the clearing....he stopped and looked straight up at me. I'm no William Tell but did feel confident with a 15 yard, quartering to me shot. Pass through shot and he went about 100 yards. Not text book but I'd just as soon be lucky as good. Feel awfully blessed. Thank the good Lord too for my Belgian horse son (6'6 260) for helping me get him out and loaded.

I might miss the last 3 days of gun season due to work. Still trying to work out the details. I wish I could get some of the fish sooner, but nooooooo.............. Good luck to everyone that is out there!
The landowner in the urban zone said that they are seeing a lot of deer out in the fields, so I might sneak over there the 3rd day of gun season.
