    I'll be out tomorrow evening solo and with the kid Saturday. Sunday is questionable, have to see what the wind is gonna do. REALLY hoping she can get one on the ground this weekend.

    They were moving mid day again here today. Dad saw a monster at 11:30 and I have pictures of a solid 8 checking a scrape at 2:00 yesterday.

    We saw a young buck working a scrape as we drove to our spot, got rained on most of the time, then saw 10 deer across the road as we were loading up to leave.
    Oh well. I got to bow hunt today so it's been a great day!
