    That looks a honey hole for sure.

    Was out for a short sit yesterday, and the nice nine point I have been after showed up with a doe. They worked in behind me where I don't have a shot of course. Ranged him at 38 yards and was having the "I can squeeze an arrow through there" conversation in my head. I didn't shoot. Too many limbs were in the way. I spotted them about 35 minutes earlier. Amazingly enough I never heard them work in behind me until they were right there. How do they do that?! I did learn where he is coming from though and may be able to adjust for a better opportunity. I'm still trying to down a couple.

    Sounds like you made the right decision. Regroup, adjust that stand and go get him! Good Luck!

    I'll prob get out this evening and the following 3 evenings. One more sit in the spot I keep seeing the 9 and then a reserved spot that is on the edge of bedding that I have left alone all year. It's a one time super aggressive move that I hope pays off. I don't even have a camera in there. Who knows.

    It is 11 degrees and blowing snow here. I'm not sure I'll get out later.

    Yeah, I like cold hunts, but when that wind is blowing and it's cold I'm staying in.

    10 day forecast here shows temps below 24 every day. Lows in single digits or close to zero.

    I can hunt when it's cold, as long as it's not windy. I've killed several deer when it's been below zero but it's been calm.

    I just had a small doe bust through my set at 5 yards. I was hoping a buck was chasing, but nobody ever showed. 19° and windy...not too bad in my pop-up blind.

    So it's been like a week since anyone has been on. It's been brutally cold here. I'm looking to get back out after the Ohio muzzle loader season which is the 6th through the 9th. Plus temps are suppose to moderate into the 20's and 30's by then.
