    Well today is the gun opener for Indiana so I decided to hang up the bow this weekend and pick up the 20 gauge. I have had alot of close calls with some good bucks so hopefully the savage can help me out.

    Out here amongst the orange army with stick and string. We'll see what happens. At least the wind isn't blowing 50mph like the last few days. Be safe everyone.

    Gun opener in VT, hence the orange. I'm in the tree with the Bear Lights Out sitting over the apple trees on my property. Bumper crop of apples this year and the deer like my property once it snows. And it is snowing and 30! image.jpg image.jpg

    I might also add that I have my 16yr old grandson with me who has autism. Hopefully today is the day for his first deer.

    No wind at all this morning, it's actually kinda nice. Can't believe how quiet it is.
    If a squirrel farts, I'm gonna hear it

    I'm in the stand with my bow. Can't wait to hear the orange army open fire. I'm hunting a small block of timber butted up to a big sanctuary. I'm hopeful the pressure will push them in here.
