    Been out a few times here in mass. Have not seen a deer from stand yet. It was too warm. Sat was 83 degrees. Sunday rain and a big cold front. Of course we cannot hunt sundays Would have been a 10 yard shot. First time he has daylighted this year

    Wow, guess I knew there were places that had different rules but I am still surprised when someone mentions it- not being able to hunt in Sundays...figures the buck would show up

    Things got interesting. Grunted in a buck to 25yds who was in some very thick buckthorn. Made a scrape and walked the other way to about 40. Jumped across some weeds and I only saw his left side… he looked really decent.

    Trying to get out with my bow as much as work will allow the next 3 days before rifle opener on Saturday. I will be taking my rifle out… most likely all day Saturday and Sunday and depending on what happens maybe Monday-Wednesday.

    Saturday, youth gun season starts in Arkansas. I'll be out with my bow Saturday morning. I'm taking my granddaughter on Sunday. November 11 MG starts. I'm on vacation that week. I'll hunt some with my rifle, but I'll also bow hunt Oklahoma that week. November 18 is rifle opener there.

    I’ve been grinding guys. Been out just about every night this week. Saw a decent buck 2 nights in a row. Lot of does and fawns tonight.

    I'll be out for a few hours in the morning. I have to be at work at 2:30 pm, but I'm only working 4 hours tomorrow. I'll hunt Saturday morning as well, before work. Sunday, we'll be trying to get my granddaughter a deer again.

    Spent most of yesterday in the stand. Had to leave for a few hrs to evaluate our new department K9 team. Morning was super frost&crunchy walking in so of course one had to blow, no way around it. That afternoon was eventful to watch&listen to, 4 little bucks dogging a doe pretty hard. She finally lost them, then it was like watching the 4 stooges.... was hoping for one of the big boys to make an appearance. The dandy likes the 0435 hr.... hunting at that hour is still frowned upon
