You may have it pointed too high and the jakes walked under the sweet spot where it senses to take a picture. It’s worked pretty fine in the past. Maybe a critter bumped it?

Yesterday I hunted my food plot for turkeys. About noon I had three jakes come in and feed around my decoys. Right in front of my Reveal X Trail Camera. See picture I took from the blind.. the trail camera is next the bushes. The Reveal took zero pictures, even though they hung around for about 15 minutes. When I quit hunting a couple hours later and went to pull my decoys it took my picture. The jakes walked right past another camera and zero pictures on it. I’m not impressed…

I have eye issues to Woody . Yes getting old isn’t easy & it’s frustrating as I missed a giant buck at 60 yards a few years back . I got to talking with my buddies about it & my eyes & one of my buddies turned me onto Eotech hologram scopes ( hopefully described it correctly) and what a difference. Nope it wasn’t cheap but it put me back in the game ! Haven’t missed anything since my purchase. You might want to look at these , because quitting can NOT happen!! I’ll check that out. Thanks .

Woodmaster came by with his Stevens 301 .410 with a red/green dot scope. Looking through it’s multi reticle it appears just a small green dot works best. The circle and/or crosshairs are pretty wavy.
Going to give it a go. Should be fairly easy to shoot left handed IF necessary
Probably be Tuesday before I can get out again

Text for the Day -- Isaiah 26:7-12---------- The way of the righteous is level; O Just One, you make smooth the path of the righteous. In the path of your judgements, O Lord, we wait for you; your name and your renown are the soul's desire. My soul yearns for you in the night, my spirit within me earnestly seeks you. For when your judgements are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness. If favour is shown to the wicked, they do not learn righteousness; in the land of uprightness they deal perversely and do not see the majesty of the Lord. O Lord, your hand is lifted up, but they do not see it. Let them see your zeal for your people, and be ashamed. Let the fire for your adversaries consume them. O Lord, you will ordain peace for us, for indeed, all that we have done, you have done for us. Devotional---------- This poetry is part of a psalm that pictures God's salvation for his people. It pictures God making life a smooth path and a delight. God's teachings will guide to peace those who listen and obey those teachings. If there is to be a happy ending to life, it will be accomplished by God. God holds the key to life eternal. Prayer-------------------- O God, help me look to you in all things. Amen

Two Canada geese flew Over and circled back honking to beat the band. You’d think that would solicit at least one gobble. Nope.

Back at it…
Hopefully with better results.
Going to practice aiming left handed at my decoy and see how that goes.

Text for the Day -- Mark 12:18-27 ---------- Some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him and asked him a question, saying, 'Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man's brother dies, leaving a wife but no child, the man shall marry the widow and raise up children for his brother. There were seven brothers; the first married and, when he died, left no children; and the second married her and died, leaving no children; and the third likewise; none of the seven left children. Last of all the woman herself died. In the resurrection whose wife will she be? For the seven had married her."
Jesus said to them, "Is not this the reason you are wrong, that you know neither the scriptures nor the power of God? For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. And as for the dead being raised, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the story about the bush, how God said to him, "I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob"? He is God not of the dead, but of the living; you are quite wrong."
Devotional ---------- Jesus believed in the resurrection from the dead. The Saduccees did not. They attempted to trick Jesus, but as usual, they are not prepared for Jesus' wisdom and insight. God is the God of the living. That is the foundation of teaching. From there Jesus moves on to build a case that God identifies with those that have died, yet are alive, like Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. As God lives, so do God's children.
Prayer -------------- Keep alive the hope of life eternal in me, O Lord. Amen
