    Good luck Rocky! I'll be out this evening and tomorrow morning. I'm usually at my property weekends only. Maybe I can trick the deer by showing up on a Friday! Stay safe guys.

    It's pretty easy. I usually print out a score sheet and instructions from Pope & Young web site, but there are lots of sites to get a score sheet.

    So here is my dilemma. My best stand is a blind along a cut corn field. The stand is in a low spot in the field. As soon as you step into the woods it is thick bedding. So I'm literally against the bedding area. The blind I'm using is old and torn up pretty bad. None of the Windows close all the way and it lets light in. It's also a small blind. So here is my question. I have a new blind. Should I chance all the noise and commotion of taking down the old blind and setting the new blind up, brushing it in ect? Or wait until after the rut? Maybe drive my truck up to it to do all the work? Ideas?

    Had a couple of 8's go by this morning. Just not what I'm looking for. Pulled some trail cams on my way out.

    I'd stay put with what you got, I wouldn't ruin a spot with tons of scent with a new blind. Nothing will come around. I did this last year and had nothing come around. Good luck

    Bear Method I wouldn't change anything right now. Might make the deer sketchy.
