    Just had a muzzleloader hunter push a spike by me. Public land can be so frustrating at times.

    Rain/snow/wind here this morning. I probably won't get back out until Thursday.
    Good luck everyone.

    I've been on stand since 5:00 am. I just arrowed a doe at 30 yards. She came in downwind and was on alert. She finally went to eat an acorn and I drew, aimed a little low and she dropped just perfect.

    First wave done. One more on the way, but it shouldn't last 50 minutes like this one.

    Game on!
