    Didn't see a single deer tonight. Indiana gun season opens tomorrow, I think I am going to sleep in and hunt the afternoon.

    Well I ended up seeing around 30 something deer this evening. Still had a lot if light left when a helicopter comes down and started chasing the deer off he field. Had problems with this same guy before. What a POS.

    Do you have hunter harassment laws and did you videotape?

    No I just don't feel like hunting when its 16 degrees. Been hunting hard everyday for a week and I just feel like getting some rest.

    We do have hunter harassment laws. The game warden had been contacted and my in laws confronted the jackass when I was headed home. The game warden is gonna do whatever he can to give him a ticket. He may catch more than a ticket if he doesn't stop.

    He's just an ******* in general. A couple years ago he asked my FIL if he could hunt there, and was politely told no. The family hunts there and it's already several people. Apparently that didn't sit too well with him and he enjoys trying to create problems since he can't hunt the place.

    I think he could be charged with hunter harassment as well as harassing wildlife.
    Get it all on video and nail that idiot!

    Here's my hourly temps for today. Warms up some midday but it's definitely better than it has been lately.

    Had two bucks cruising but was still too dark. One looked to be a definite shooter. This is the most activity I have seen and of course its the last day.

    Have 10 hot hand product on me and layered to the max. Let the last all day sit begin.

    Good luck fellas
