    I think I'm taking tomorrow off. Get good and drunk tonight so i can wake up and puke when I learn Hillary won. Not that either option is worthwhile, one has worse impacts for the SCOTUS.

    Thought maybe I would hunt and take it out on a deer, but getting drunk os a sure thing that I can control :lol:

    Yeah I can see that. The field edge is probably 30 yards from my tree. And I would still see deer moving behind me deeper in the timber. But I can't get there because it's think with no trees. lol

    Forgot to mention earlier.

    From 5:20 am until about 8 o'clock I got eaten alive by mosquitos. At one point I had the doe and Fork come in, she was skittish as hell and he hung back. I couldn't move because she was down wind and looking, had to let the zika ridden avian burd flu carriers feast. One on my left brow.

    I've been bit by mosquitos in Nov. but never before first light. Asinine weather

    You were only 20 mins from my house if you were in Quincy ha.




    Well forgot to say anything bout the rest of afternoon. Got to about 20 mins of shooting light left so decided to get down having not seen anything. Lowered bow down and was getting everything else packed up. Hear something along feild edge and a spike and 2 doe go cruising by at about 30 yards. So waiting until they made it down to creek and climbed down. Made way back to truck and here something moving in treeline walking next to. Take couple more steps and a pretty nice looking coyote jumps out bout 15 yards in front of me the runs off. Not sure which one of us was more surprised. Not night had hoped for in stand but it ended with some entertainment ha.

    Good luck everyone!

    Well, I'm up and ready. Warming up the truck right now. We finally got a little cooler weather. I really think this could be the morning I get it done. I have that feeling.
