    Everything is set, now just gotta wait and see if it pays off. Still got a light rain but it's starting to die off, gonna end up wet before it's all over though.

    Just had a HUGE red tailed hawk land in a tree 15 yards from me. Boy is s/he beautiful. Looked at me then flew on down through the woods.

    Setup and strapped in!!! Perfect wind for this stand but it's blowing like a sob!!! Haven't been seeing any mature bucks on cam lately but I did noticed a few scrapes that just got worked over this morning! I'm out here to shoot a doe or a buck just as long as I get to finally let an arrow fly this year!!![​IMG][​IMG]

    You know he's going to move past your last stand location right? :lol:

    Hope you nail him tonight. Has he been going the opposite direction in the evenings?

    Not good at just keeping my mouth shut. For the first time in 15 bow seasons I've missed twice in one season.....ughhh. hard to stomach...real hard. Only thing I know how to do bc obviously I'm not that good of a hunter or shot is to just keep hunting.

    Pink Lumonock was easy to find. No hair or blood on arrow. Dang! Well at least I got a shot after 3 years of not.

    Oh believe me I know that will happen.

    No same direction, left to right on that map showed earlier. Even ever pic I had of him by where my stand was he was heading in this direction.

    Oh no Brett! Is it possible your sight got bumped? Your getting the shots so you aren't a bad hunter my friend. Misses happen especially when it's been a rough season.
