    You know when you put so much time, effort, and money into something, as we all do, and then have it messed up by something as stupid as fogged glasses, I think I just want to sit and play with a loaded revolver for a while. Yes I'm whining but I know most of you will understand.

    Blessings..........Pastorjim

    Double edged sword, clear skies and sun shining with a southerly wind only fuels the atmosphere to support strong storms.

    Biggest thing will be the winds picking up all day for most everyone.

    Used the terrain, cover, wind, and wet leaves stalked within 20 yds of where they were bedded and started rushing cause I didn't see them well they were still laying down regardless that was fun

    Just heard a deer blow behind me. The wind isn't blowing that way but this terrain pushes the current in all directions so who knows.

    Just had a buck come in from the same direction the big one headed to a while ago. For a hot minute I thought it was the big one coming back but it wasn't. He better be glad he didn't come in range or I might have shot him out of frustration. He looked to be a 5pt.

    Well a coyote just ran off the only deer I've seen this morning...but then a bald eagle swooped down and followed them. From my experience that's a good luck sign haha. I'm not superstitious, but I am a little stitious :)
