    Although I cant take full days off right now... Got approval to have tomorrow, Monday, and Friday afternoons off. Better than nothing I guess!

    In theory. But heck, electricity is a theory.
    During normal operation I'd say yes, but during the "seek" phase they move most all the time. You can see them at 10am just like at 4pm. Right place right time is the best practice. :lol:

    Sounds awesome. I love hunting the fog. Mature deer seem to be much more comfortable moving in those conditions.

    -Hunting hill sides

    I did the same thing. Very thin t-shirt and still had douse myself in scent away when I get to the stand. Almost stepped on a garter snake! Sorry but snakes should not be out during deer season!

    I just got out also. There's a nice breeze from the east which is perfect for my blind.
    We got rain overnight so the corn picking will be non existent for At least another week I bet?
