    Goo luck matt. Little too early for all day sits here. 81 and humid!!! Buddy of mine wants to try filming this week but, man, not sure I want to sweat my tail off in a stand and risk getting winded.

    So I get here, notice the wind is not in my favor, except for one spot, I get to the stand and first see this...

    Then I realize I didn't trim anything for shooting lanes, so I have 4 little spots to shoot through. So this should be interesting

    Good luck to you! I just got settled in for my evening sit. The wind here lately has been relentless. Hopefully it calms down a little by prime time. Haven't seen much the past few days. Last night the moon was blocked out by the clouds so i hope they're hungry.

    %#!^# farmers!

    I go to spot #1 and farmer working the field too close to my set up... drive 20 miles to my next choice, and same thing.
    luckily I had a 3rd option not too far off and i am set up now about 1:15 bfre dark.

    These Farmers better be careful or I am gonna quit hunting their land for free!

    Wish I could threaten to stop hunting land for free, LOL. Only thing free here is a glimpse of their land as you drive by.

    Hope it all works out, 3rd place is the charm maybe.

    Good luck to you. I remember my first deer with a bow...many, many moons ago. I had a Bear Super Kodiak recurve and wood arrows.

    Super warm this morning here in Ohio. Temps only dropped to 65 and it's muggy. The wind is perfect for this stand though.
