    This may be a short lived hunt. Rain already started. But its almost shooting light and its the rut. Lets go!

    Well well, I had an old friend show up Sunday night! He not only showed up just after dark but he also must have came into the yard and he destroyed one of my targets! It on tomorrow night for him. One thing I’m most excited about is the 80 yard walk to the stand out of the backyard! Image1541504501.209012.jpg Image1541504514.935707.jpg

    I'm set up. Will see how long this lasts 15-20 mph sustained north wind. Might be hard to shoot! Had a button bedded under the stand on the way in and a red tail on the same tree as the stand. I'm sure it's a sign just not sure if it's good or bad!

    Still can't shake this darn cough, only good part about this much wind is it will cover my hacking lol.

    Very windy here this morning and it rained all night. We'll see what the morning brings. Good luck to everyone out today.

    I'm set up on a little ridge that overlooks a creek bottom. Hopefully with this wind they will want to move through that bottom.

    Well I’m up
    This may be a short hunt today. It’s already raining. The are calling for gale force winds today and 8-14 ft waves on Lake Erie. Already have some dead limbs falling.
    It’s November I need venison in the freezer and I’m on vacation to hunt for the next 12 days so gotta get it done. Good luck and stay safe.

    Also Mother Nature is not been very nice with the weather so far

    All setup in my honey hole! First hunt of the year on this property. Perfect conditions. I did bump one deer out of the corn pile on the way in. Fingers crossed...

    All I want to see and hear are deer pornographic noises and actions! No one else besides hunters would understand this strange desire.

    So I’m glad the leaves are coming down so opens the woods up more but damn the deer blend in well in the distance.

    Radar showing storms may break for a few hrs in a bit. Leaves dropping like crazy. Visibility is going to look much different after these storms end today.

    the past two days I am actually okay that i am working.... it has been nothing but rain here. I am getting excited for tomorrow, got the okay to come in late so i will get a couple hours in the stand during the morning. Then I will be out the 10th, 11th, and 12th. 10th is the last day in PA so I will be heading to jersey for the remainder of the weekend and monday! Good luck to anyone who makes it out, remember its November.... anything can happen.
