    I think most rutting activity is happening night due to the warm temperatures and full moon. It is going to take a good temperature drop for daylight movement to pick up. That being said, I killed my buck on 11/12 went the high was 58 on Saturday after being 75 on Friday.

    Hope you guys don't mind me sharing because it is not a bow kill. My soon to be 10 yr old shot his first deer tonight. Shot a button buck with a muzzleloader. He is so excited.

    Well my last sit in Ohio. I'm hoping for some good things this morning. Even though I haven't killed it's been a good hunt and I've learn some things if I get to come back here. Good luck to everyone out today. Be safe.

    Blessings..........Pastorjim

    Nope. But I'm in a tree, so that helps. Although the coughing isn't helping my hunting any. Lol

    Oh man, just had a monster 10 come in at about 20yds, I think he responded to my can call. He was in some thicker stuff and I couldn't get a shot. He looked around and headed back the way he came. Man that'll get your blood flowing in a hurry!

    No hunting for me this morning.
    I have been seeing a nice buck with a doe the past two afternoons about 200 yards from my house. So today is ambush day. Not real sure where the popping out at but hoping he will respond to a call if I sit up to far down. Either way if he pops out I will be able to see him.

    After hunting 16 days in a row, I'm mentally and physically exhausted so I took today off. Back to work tomorrow for a day, then hunting Friday as my last hunting day before heading back to work full time this weekend.

    GOOD luck guys!
