    Didn't want to pay for tapatalk again but it's free for android.

    Maybe a pic will change my luck.

    Expect them to come down from here. It's nasty thick this year, not sure how that will affect t the rut. Bedding area was in the trees, but wouldn't doubt they're bedding in the overgrowth now

    Just hoping that combine running earlier wasn't a dinner bell. It's been gone for awhile now.

    Here is my view foe the evening sit. Had 3 deer that I busted walking in about 10 yds from the stand. One charged me. Got within about 2 yds and darted off the other way. Hope they come back! uploadfromtaptalk1413665822032.jpg

    Now my day doesn't seem so bad.

    I almost did the same thing this morning. If I hadn't opened up the passenger door looking for my deer dander.

    You chancing it without it or heading back?

    Think I am just going to sit it out. It's a good day for bird watching!!! I could walk back and get it, and then go to another stand that's not too far from the truck, but the wind is all wrong for that stand.

    I'm having entirely too much fun out here. Just had a mature doe walk right up to my tree and started getting downwind of me, can't have that. So I threw a stick at her to get her to change direction. She mule kicked like I shot her and then walked off the other way.

    2 hours left, last year I shot my first deer at 4:45 according to the live from the stand thread. Shot my buck at 4pm, which I think was 3 pm.

    Fields are a long ways, they generally come through well before sunset.

    Back in the blind tonight with my daughter. Way less wind then yesterday but still warmer than I like. About 50 right now. Good luck to everyone hunting tonight.

    Starting to rain. I'm thinking about sneaking around a little. This isn't the funnel I thought it was going to be.
