    Hiking in 3/4 mile tomorrow morning at 0430. Winds are supposed to switch like 5 to 6 times before the small storm arrives in the afternoon. Im going to hunt on the highest part of the ridge near the bedding. Hopefully I will be high enough and the thermals will push my scent up high enough regardless of the wind direction.

    I'm hoping to get out early tomorrow afternoon if work allows. We had another decent buck show up last night on our camera and I discovered a fresh rub and 2 scrapes today after the morning hunt. That area has been dead during daylight but they are obviously there. Hopefully all of the time we are spending there will pay off.

    Looking at the weather the rain might not stop until 6, hoping it stops a little earlier it's a little harder waking up and going out when you can hear the rain outside, hoping I get my butt out of bed tomorrow morning I'm thinking the big boys will be out freshening scrapes
