    Really slow now, surprising really.

    Just ate and watched the recording. I'm 98% certain it's a bobcat, but there's that 2% possibility it's a cheetah cub. Never seen a bobcat before, may never see one again. They're more prevalent in southern IL , pretty cool none the less.

    Now the deer seem to be rare, go figure

    Just had a small 6 come off the neighboring property. Headed into a bedding area, maybe he'll get a few on their feet

    While I was walking in tonight I heard the thundering of hooves and looked up to see two absolute giants running a doe. They came within 5 yards of me and 10 yards from where I was going to sit. I couldn't get an arrow nocked fast enough to stop one of them for a shot. If I had been in a minute earlier it would've worked out perfect. At least I know the rut is on!

    Just had an absolute brute chase a doe around on the other side of the ditch about 15 minutes ago. Had his attention with grunts and an excited wheeze attempt. She managed to sneak away from him and I tried a few bleats and grunts but couldn't get him to commit. Waited hoping he may circle back but turkeys have now started to roost.

    Got the heart rate up there

    Here's a still image from the video of the bobcat. Still one of the coolest sightings I've had in the woods.

    I've seen three does this morning in NE Ohio. One of them is now laying belly up about 60 yards away.

    Back out on the reservoir. Had a 6 point come through he makes it through the year hell blow up.

    Other than that been keeping my mind entertained.
