    Day 18...if the weather is going to stay in the low 60s I'm going to keep scouting. The topo map didnt do this place justice. Sheer drop offs and steep banks. Think I found one good spot away from everyone. Bunch of creek crossings from private bedding onto public.

    Cecil! Very close to the border of PA, actually just got another call and sounds like I got another 13 acres in the same area!! Little old man that had some branches fall down over winter and needs a fence taken down. Said the wife is mad the deer are eating all her flowers!!! Sounds like a good spot to me!!

    Nice job! Sounds like that would work out perfect for you. Plus it's alot closer to your home.

    Thanks guys! I’m super excited, both properties are only about an hour away. The 13 acres the guy said he has deer in his yard every evening! Going to hopefully go down and meet him next weekend and get some cameras up!

    Well I am going down on Saturday to meet both of these land owners and get some cameras up!!! This exciting news got me to finally start building my hunting arrows for this year, going to be running GT kinetic Kaos shafts in 340 with some white wraps and TAC drive 2.75 vanes, pretty sure I will be running the viper tricks this year. Have 3 built for practice but I am waiting for the wraps to come in to build the rest. Got the bow all set up and after a little tuning with the Elite Kures SET technology I have a perfect bullethole! Image1589382991.309432.jpg Image1589383004.111550.jpg
