    Thank God for backups! I've made many of climbs back down after dropping something needed.

    I’m grateful this little hickory tree is here. It has allowed me to keep the sun out of my eyes for the last half hour.

    As I was walking out this morning I found 4 ground scrapes a few small rubs and one big rub all with 5o to 60 yds of each other. Going to try to get in there Monday night or Tuesday morning and afternoon to see who is tearing up the woods. CBA37F0F-9CAA-4F79-BB80-6DC1C47387C4.jpeg

    Back in the stand for the afternoon.

    Thanks for all the congratulations on my doe this morning. Felt good to knock the first one down for the year

    Lone big doe came out. Walked to ten yards and looked up. Slow stomped away couldn’t catch a wiff. She is blowing now though I didn’t want to shoot a doe but if she don’t quite and hangs around she tastes to good to be annoying

    Only a seasoned veteran hunter would have had a back-up release in their pack. Good on you! :tu:
