    Back at it this evening. Kinda windy. Maybe with a little bit of luck, one of my shooters will step out this evening and present a shot.

My cuddelink shows the buck I’m after was out Friday night and last night right about dusk about 150 yards from where I set up. I tried to set up closer tonight but didn’t see anything.

    Thank you! That’s one of my favorite sits but its got to be a straight north or a straight south wind so I might only get one or two a year. I’ll try to post a good topo of that spot today to show where I think the bedding is on those winds.

    Didn’t see anything last night, going to be heading out this evening after work. Got a good wind for one of my favorite stands tonight.

    Soooooo…. Just got permission for a crp field..40 acres! And it’s close to another property I hunt… guys now that I’m over here… I honestly have the chance at a 150-200” buck… I’m not even kidding. I’ve seen pictures of 180s that run back there and I can now hunt the 40 bedding area!!!! Just crapped my pants

    Just can’t believe I got permission back there. The catch is I can’t hunt weekends… reason being her own I just agreed to it. Becuse I would be stupid not to

    Sounds to me like if she said you can only hunt Thursday morning from 9:27 to 11:09 a.m. it would still be worth it haha

    Nothing, it rained for a little while but then nothing showed up after it stopped. Going out tomorrow evening to the complete other side of the property. After tomorrow won’t be out until this weekend depending on work and setting up baby’s room.

    I’ll be out Wednesday at the new property to do a camera set up and a light hunt outside the bedding. Just excited to get a inventory on this new spot

    lol 4 o'clock seems like it will never get here today! I get off work at 4 and where I hunt is literally not even 5 minutes away from my work. So I usually can hunt right after work. If a doe steps out she will be in trouble tonight. lol
