    Well I saw 3 does on my still hunt but couldn't get a good shot at any of them. Hopefully I have better luck tomorrow.

    Well tonight i got in my stand around 3pm (Which was a little late for my liking) but 10 mins in my stand and behind me about 100 yards there was a mature doe and 3 of her fawns. Later that night just about 30 mins before the end of shooting light a yearling came in about 20 yards of my stand but she never gave me a good shot. I was debating about sending an arrow at her if it presented itself (being its my first year hunting), but some local kids decided to take a walk through the woods (about 150 yards out) and spooked her and she went running off before ever giving me a shot. Lets hope tomorrow morning im more lucky... Best of luck everyone.

    Live from the ground with shotgun in hand. Should be a comfortable yet lazy hunt. Incredibly foggy this morning. Shooting hours in 20 mins but doubt ill be able to see for another 30 or so. Good luck everyone!

    3:00 PM, no wind. Hunting with a new friend. I walked the property with him. He's set up about 80 yards from me. If a deer comes out this afternoon one of us should get it. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1354564899.579274.jpg

    Hunting a property I rarely hunt. I had a heck of a time finding a suitable tree to climb. I still don't like where I am and will move at lunch time. I saw 3 does driving in. The moon was like a beacon all night.

    No wonder the deer didn't come near me, I found out the hard way that there was a big pile of dog poop right under my stand! I got that crap all over me while I was packing my stand up! Go figure, in the middle of the frickin woods I find the only pile of dog crap!

    Ditto that. Mickey D's then back to the woods. I scouted around the place I'm hunting today and found what looks to be PROMISING.
    Update later.
