    Checked camera on the way in and last Friday had a nice 8 pt cruise past my stand in the middle of the day! Sometimes I hate cameras!

    Got soaked yesterday afternoon and don't feel like pushing through it this morning. Might do some stuff around here instead.

    In stand, bumped a doe and she blew to let me know all about it. Today is my last real chance at antlers.

    I think I'm sleeping in tomorrow. I'm drained

    Good luck this mornin all.

    I'm on "vacation" but I have to go to a breakfast for "work" this morning... But work supports my love for deer hunting so it will be okay!

    Working today then have the next 4 off. Been a crap week at work. Really only have this afternoon to hunt due to the weather be crap the next 3 days. Thinking I'm just gonna skip hunting tonight and spend the next 4 days relaxing and letting my body rest up. I still have a lot of season left and at least 2 days every week to hunt, plenty of time....

    Now that is a skinny tree to be in!! Barely 8" in diameter....
    The tree is growing around the strap. Must have been there a few years

    This one looks a bit older...

    Back at it again boys. Hoping to see as much action as yesterday, except with a little different outcome. Be safe everyone.

    Third time in this stand and third time seeing the same forkhorn at about 7:00. Hopefully something I'm willing to kill will show up now.

    Quite possibly the best hour I've ever had on stand. Had the giant 8 right under me before I even pulled bow up. Small bucks running does like crazy

    This day is off to a sh#$@y start. Luckily I grabbed several handfuls of napkins this morning and brought them.

    Nothing like climbing down 5 minutes before official sunrise. Could be worse, could have had a log break and fall in it :lol:

    Good luck Ruger. Takes a lot to keep me out of the woods. Woke up with a head cold. No problem. Went I outside 330 to get my stuff ready and it was raining. Trying to be older and wiser today so I am sitting it out. Don't want to makes this cold any worse in these conditions.
