    Yearling doe, mature doe, and a 4pt so far. Have a SE wind and I’m on the NW side of this field. Something in the thick stuff to the SE is blowing or sneezing a lot. Yearling doe feeding in the beans hasn’t spooked so I assume it’s sneezing.

    The ground is so dry that its very hard to see tracks and trails. No buck sign yet but I did find one major side trail that is perfect for a NW wind, which is pretty standard in Nov. So I feel I walked 8 miles for one or two stand sites. haha..sent the coordinates to my friend.

    As I expected, no deer sighted.

    However, every time I’ve seen deer sneaking through there it’s been in the morning.

    I’ll be surprised if I see nothing in the morning. If something comes by it’s going to be up close and personal.

    Closest any of them got was 75 yards. Watched a momma and fawn bully a lone fawn around for the final 45 minutes of the hunt.

    The neighbor has a good plot this year that the deer are loving (leafy greens maybe turnips). He’s never had one before might not be the best for me down there until the rut and hope bucks push does to my side.

    Knock em down fellas. I'll put in some scouting miles shortly. Didn't want to wander around pre dawn so much with baby copperhead crawling. This new spot has abandoned rr tracks I'll walk. Snakes galore.

    Good luck everybody.

    I am up along the edge of a thicket about 130 yards south of where I killed a doe on the opener 2 years ago. It sounds like there may be a few earl lyndropping oaks around me. My oldest is about 165 yards west. @Jezzy670 is about 100 yards west of him.
