    Typical full moon morning or close to a full moon morning. There’s nothing moving.

    His 10 point great granddaddy just cruised through. Jeez what a buck.

    I need to move. I’m just not sure when to try it.

    Don’t these deer know they aren’t supposed to move until mid day? It says so in my Hunt Calendar app. :lol:

    im gonna wait about 30 minutes to make sure he’s out of the area and try to move about 30 or 40 yards west. I may have to go southwest to find a climbable tree.

    Tomorrow will be an all day sit. I’d do it today but I’m not prepared and I’m tired.

    This is where I am. All the traffic I’ve seen has been coming almost right up the middle of this patch of woods from the SSW

    They all get to about 35 yards on the other side of thick stuff, turn and head WNW.

    The woods are more open south of me. That might be a better option. That’s thick, gnarly stuff west of me.

    You have a West wind? That little inside corner south in that picture get you in range to anything moving the way you described?

    It would be worth a shot but I have no idea where they are coming into the woods at.

    This patch of woods is surrounded by standing corn except for the grass between the wood patches.

    This evening and tomorrow I will be able to better tell where they’re entering at.

    I moved but I didn’t get away with it. A doe started blowing off to the west.

    I moved roughly 40 yards south. I have shots to my east almost to the field edge, I have 40 yard shots to the west and I can shoot anything in between.

    They’re moving through here somewhere because this area is where I first saw them. I’m not going to walk it all up looking.

    Knowing my luck it’ll be right under me. Not much choice though. Climbing trees are limited. I’m in a white oak that is almost max size for a Summit Viper.

    Im facing south, the direction they came from. The wind is supposed to be SW today and tomorrow.

    I would bet good money that they are either coming in from that inside corner, which sounds like where you moved to, or that small finger of cover to the SW. Get the right wind and you'll bust em. I've had deer here carve a path inside the finger of wood lines 120 yards just to come out or go in an inside corner on Ag.
