    Some activity

    Saw two small bucks and a doe. One of the small bucks was chasing the doe.

    Just shot my 6th deer of the year. A nice big doe made her last mistake. I had a nice buck behind and under me. He was following the doe but never presented a shot. I never did get a good look at his rack through the brush.
    Video shot with iPhone.

    Oh, and I got a squirrel too.

    Saw what looked to be a nice Buck. He was about 40 yards off in the thickets. He looked like he was working on a scrape. He started walking away so I grunted a few times but he never paid any attention. Gone!

    Just took a long wet walk back to my blind. Hoping with the rut finally being here that my hard work will be rewarded!

    I'm starting to regret not going out today after reading these. But then I see this, Wind Speed: W 25 G 39 MPH. Not too upset now

    Got busted while getting situated in stand. Was about 10 minutes ago so hopefully just under an hour is enough for things to still happen. Dropped my bottle of deer dander at the base of the tree climbing up.

    We'll see how it goes.

    Seeing a 6 point last couple days so I move my stand to get closer. Hot and sweaty now. I'm done though. He comes around 8.

    Slow morning yet again. Deer have been moving late on this end of the property this season. Previous 2 site didn't yield anything until 9:30, 8:30 now, see what happens in an hour
