    Good luck everyone. A lot warmer than I figured this morning. 57° here compared to 30 yesterday. Sitting in a different stand close to the same one as yesterday, hopefully I can get a shot at one of these coyotes

    Good luck everybody. It's warm here and I'm looking for a doe this morning. The wind is less than desirable, but I think it will work.

    Coolish 50s here in NC and perfect ENE wind for a favorite old spot. Problems getting to it this morning due to Hurricane Matthew's wrath and some damn beavers that dropped more trees along the route in.

    Cue the deer.

    Had a little buck running around at day break. Then a big doe came out at 5 yards. Couldn't draw without her seeing me.

    Busted by a doe. I couldn't see due to fog, changing shirts after the walk in. It hung around for a bit but blew and ran off. Maybe it will come back?

    Turkeys are waking up and they aren't too far away. I wouldn't mind one of them strolling by this morning.

    The sound of peepers has given way to song birds, crows, hawks a bull frog below me and 1400 squirrels playing tag.

    What a crappy start to a morning. 60+ degrees, 20 MPH south wind, Go Pro wouldn't charge last night, now main camera screen won't come on. So $4000 dollars worth of paper weights in the blind with me.

    Good luck all. Cool all week, then warmed back up to mid 50s this morning. But, nice breeze and it's just right for this stand. Love to get a doe down this morning.

    Hunt started out good then the neighbor's dogs busted everything out. I've gotten them on trail cam at least 5 times.

    Time to raise some hell.
