    I have a lot to get done in the fall, plus I don't get many bucks coming thru till the rut starts. I tend to get pissy when I see nothing but does for a couple of sits.

    Sept. 1st for me. You can bet I will be in the stand that same day. Early season is a great time to catch mature animals off guard.

    We're Sept 15th also. I'm falling behind. I just bought a few more cameras so I gotta hang those still. I have an idea of where I want to hang some stands but my camera evidence will confirm it.
