    ****ty card pull today guys. Only bucks that are daylight active are 2 years from being shooters. I do have dead on patterning does so I'll be scoring points and focusing on the big boys by the middle of oct.

    This is the best buck on my main property. I could probably run up and shoot him...

    I’m curious to see how long he lives if he’s made it this far looking like that. Got a cool lookin rack on his ride side already too!

    It was a slow night for me in the tree last night! 80 degrees and calm plus the mosquitos were out and the guy next door stopped me on my way up and was talking about the triple E outbreak here in CT and how I was gunna be the next guy to die. so I had an interesting but uneventful evening last night!

    I had to Google Triple E outbreak because I had no idea what you were taking about. I swear every year there is some new thing that is going to kill us all.

    Out looking at some new ground and was looking at how good this tree looked for a stand. Then I noticed it’s occupied....Never fails!

    Yeah there is no other trees worth being in on this small pinch area and I was looking at which way to face a stand and what to trim. Sucks but I ain’t messing with them. Throwing rocks at one when I was a kid changed my mindset. Ha ha

    Oct 1 can't get here fast enough. I have a guy I met on a former team coming out on the 10th. One of the reasons I love this sport and forum. Friendships are made and respect given. I was hoping to hunt with Colin this year after we were successful during turkey. But it is what it is.
    My camo has been hanging in the woods behind my house for weeks
    My bow is dead nuts on
    My pack is prepped
    I'm totally ready!!

    The fella from the previous team isn’t me though...a**hole. But I’m getting fired up to get out. Touching up my arrows and then I’m all good to go!

    I’m planning a couple days here and there. I’ve got 4 personal days and 10 sick days. I might have to have a real bad fever a couple times in November
