    Well I'm off starting tomorrow for hunting with my father and brother. Only glitch is Wed and Thursday are not looking that ideal as far as weather. Rain on Wed and light rain possible for Thurs & Fri. Honestly I don't really care too much about the rain but the wind is forecast for 25 mph Wed and 21 mph for Thursday(that's sustained winds with gusts forecast much higher), that = GARBAGE.

    If I could I would cancel my leave and use it next week when the weather breaks but my brother is home from overseas and our schedule is tight. So we'll be braving the elements and getting after em. I killed my bow-buck 2 Fridays ago so I'm not too concerned about me but my brother and father will be bowhunting mostly(maybe a couple bp hunts) and I feel like the sets I have are not necessarily ideal as they don't crowd the deers cover too closely.

    Any suggestions, should I use the wind to go ahead and sneak in and adjust a couple sets closer to the thickets I'm guessing they will be taking shelter in, wait for the weather to break Friday, or what? I'm open to any foul weather suggestions.
