    Ended up being a very uneventful afternoon/evening in the blind. Will be back at it later this week!

    Haven't even seen one this season yet and been out 4 times so far. Had one just a few yards behind my blind this morning but busted me before light so I never even saw him/her. Not sure if I was winded or spooked when I opened blind windows.

    Had one of the worst mornings ever hanging my stand. Long story short I'm on the ground now. Its warmer than I thought so I'm hot now.

    Oh well. Bad day hunting is better than being at work right?

    In VA when you buy your big game tags you get:
    3-turkey tags
    1-bear tag
    3-either sex tags
    3-antlerless only tags
    Plus you can buy Bonus tags for antlerless deer. A set of 6 for $18.00. As many sets as you care to buy.

    It's a nasty drizzling morning here in VA. I might grab one of the recurves and head to public land this afternoon. Or what I should really do is move some stands on 2 different properties. Right now I'm just hanging out on the couch with the dog having coffee.

    I just remembered, I have to go to Quantico Marine Base at 2:00PM to watch a short video so I can hunt on "Mainside". I've already gotten qualified.

    Back in the stand winds perfect my walk in was very ninja like. Freshed a scrape an stopped for a photo shoot in front of the covert. I hear a lot of movement this morning ...looking for one with headgear.
