    Looking good!! Same random wind direction as the day I shot my buck from last year. I have a perfect spot for it!

    That is a beautiful thing. Hourlys look good in WI bit high of 82 on Saturday. Wind will be perfect for my stand. Really got me rethinking opening day plans.

    The high is going to be 81 here, but I have a solid game plan for recovery. I’ll have a cooler full of frozen one litre bottles of water to put inside the deer as soon as I’m done getting him/her!

    High of 82 with South wind tomorrow. I'll be hunting in an area with no reception so won't be able to give you guys an update until I get home. I'll be doing an afternoon sit. Not sure of the tree yet, but heading to an area I always thought about putting a stand. It'll be the first sit for me self filming. Should be a lot of fun, even though I'll be sweating my ass off!

    Looks like I'll be in the land of the cheeseheads tomorrow for opening day! Hunting some WI public land, so fingers crossed!

    830BD781-021A-4127-A94C-D11CF075B1CB.jpeg Good luck guys ! I’m super jealous of you that get to hunt tomorrow - I’ve been out scouting / prepping trees for hang and hunts on public the last few weeks - checked some cams and made a hit list - this buck is the main public land buck - I can only ever get him on camera walking away even though I’ve tried to reposition multiple times from different angles / entry routes to the buck bedding . I’m super stoked for season !

    I hope Swamp and the other WI boys got it done this morning. So many mosquitoes I almost got carried off.

    Skunk city for me this morning! There was heavy heavy fog in the woods, I could not find my way to my new spot, got turned around a bit and ended up sitting where I shot my buck last year. I think a bottle came up from behind downwind of me and caught my scent and bolted, at least that’s what it sounded like.

    Zoom in on this guy’s rack

    That main travel Corridor I found a few months back is used mainly by does, which I knew. Not a single picture of a buck. What I need to find now is where that run, and this run intersect and set up shop!

    The cameras are about 100 yards apart. I walk right through this area where I got these pictures from...Maybe I should walk no further? LOL
