    I'm really starting to feel like I'm missing out. I'm still getting loads of daytime pictures of good bucks and I can't do anything about it. Going to the Badger game Saturday to help pass the time. Might do a little squirrel hunting sunday.

    It'll probably be a week and a half before I'm back in the woods. Hopefully that'll allow deer to get lulled into comfort and the weather a chance to cool.

    I'm enjoying living vicariously through you guys that are able to be in the stand so early! Keep us posted as to how the action is going and what caliber of deer you're seeing. I have 11 days left until opener, might as well be next year..

    I went in this past saturday, had a doe lay down about 75 yards from my blind. Nothing else the rest of the day. It's still pretty warm here, hoping to go out tomorrow.

    In the blind now. Just had a cotton mouth sneak through, really tested my ability to stay still. I can't wait for colder weather

    My brother a herpatologist caught one that had swallowed a huge 40" mud snake last time we were down there. . Years late he got bitten by one and you don't want to know what sort of hospital bill that gets you. Be careful.

    Oh and good luck!

    I had a really crappy week, but I snuck away a bit early (6pm) from my client site this week, ran down I95 towards NYC to this archery shop to try out some Elite bows. Nice!

    I'm outta the woods this week, gonna works on a habitat for humanity house for a couple days.

    Go get em, I'm living vicariously through yall...

    I will be in the stand tomorrow morning, hoping to shoot a doe and at least get a visual of the 10 pt I'm after. In a perfect world he would just walk by after sun up! Haha

    I shot some Elites earlier this summer also. Very nice bow. Very smooth backdraw and hard back wall. If I was an older guy I'd have bought that bow without question.
