    Well still nothing, the winds picked up a bit in the last 30min which is keeping the temp down. Going to sit for about another hr then going to get down.

    Nature called, so got down a little earlier then planned, grabbing a quick bite then heading to the blind, getting a little too windy to be 20' up...

    Have seen one real nice ten @ 100 yards.. Wouldn't call.
    Have rattled in four bucks in the last hour. Two were nice eight pointers. Too much good hunting left to shoot one of these. Got close to 8 minutes of video of one eight and Bucky jr having a standoff )

    Back out, sitting in the blind the rest of the day. Trying a new approach, all the beans have been picked, and the only standing corn within 3/4 of a mile is on the other side of the picked bean field I'm over looking. Got a scrape that looks like it has t been freshened in a few days about 20 yds from my blind right where a little cut in the wood line is....

    I seen a small fork horn this morning when I was in a stand. So at least I didn't go with nothing all day. See how the evening plays out. Gonna suck if after sitting here since 12, I don't see at least a doe... One bad thing about having a lease away from where you live and gas being so damn expensive....

    Yea, I thought the same thing this morning, that fork was right under my stand before
    I heard him, came in downwind of me, luckily he didn't wind me, got a little bit of video of him before he went on out to the field though...
