    I wasn't planning on much this week, but I might hit hard Wednesday - friday before shotgun season. Probably my best bet for a buck with what I've been seeing.

    I am debating on buying one more doe tag just so I can get back out in the woods and hunt a little more this year. I love the feeling of being tagged out on bucks, but it leaves me wanting to be in the woods more still.

    Hitting it again on Thursday morning before work. It is suppose to rain until then. Temps are back down and the moon is getting smaller. Should be good from Thursday through the weekend.

    Get back out there. No debate if you have the time and deer numbers. Can't do it all year. Have to enjoy it while you can.

    Had a shooter show up this morning at 15yds. Unfortunately I passed due to him missing half his rack. It's busted right past his brow tine and his ear is split. Stealthcam had him in there last night as well. Thought it was the eight with a split brow at first but he was on the cam as well. Will post pics after work.

    He's my only target buck in that area. There are a few up and comers there that will be nice in a few more years. I'm also hoping the albino buck makes it through a few more seasons as well.

    I like the sound of all of this. Hunting next two nights and then shotgun season starts and I will only have Dec 30 - Jan 10 left. Some of that is due to going to wife's family for christmas.

    Good luck.

    Bringing out the Hawks camo hat. Never worn hunting before or many other places. Hoping for good luck or something like that. Gun season starts tomorrow. I also have the same pants, shirt and socks that I killed my elk with. I have a fixed broadhead on just to change it up also.

    It's clearly time for me to sit out for awhile. Superstitions only work if you try them right?

    Hope they win. MSU beat my team and ruined our chances at the championship. At least another B1G school has a chance at bringing home that trophy.

    On another note, I will be sitting all day tomorrow unless the split brow buck shows up early.

    Hopefully tomorrow goes better. Only 1 deer while driving in.

    Hopefully you don't sit all day tomorrow. Good luck.
