    I'm finally seeing deer. I found them on the apples. Tried everything. The deer are on the apples for some reason right now. That's where I am again tonight.

    Just spotted first doe walking out of bedding, they are moving early here! But it may take her a hour to make it to me

    It's humbling getting used to hunting public land again. 9000 acres, where it's an amazing day if you even see a deer. I miss my property I owned in RI.

    Finally settled in tree. 2nd hunt of the year. Little warm at 72 but wind seems to be cooperating. Good luck to all that are out.

    It's awfully warm here but I've got a good feeling about tonight. It'll be my last sit this weekend since its supposed to be even hotter tomorrow. I'm going to pick up a camper my wife and I just bought tomorrow anyways, so I guess its at least something hunting related.

    I was thinking blood has got to fall tonight if the only thing keeping this thread alive is whether he peed or not. Lol

    Well 25ft up a tree in a ladder stand that is swaying 8 inches side to side. Way to hot and windy but can't kill them from the house. Sitting in a creek crossing that is getting tore up deer.

    Doe and fawn just came out. If they work this way it could get interesting.

    Was able to see a big doe leaving the bedding for the 1st time this year. After 7 sits on this hill I was beginning to think ghosts were leaving the scrapes & scat. Well now if they could only come a little closer than 50 yards out in thick forest. 39 degrees & a huge full moon tonight. I hung a trail cam to catch the after dark action.
