    Ended up having three more come in right at the time I had determined I no longer had enough light to shoot. Only had to wait about 5 minutes before a big hog came in and moved them out. Lowered my bow and got up to climb down. Turned on my head light and got busted by one standing behind the tree I was in. The cold front that came in has them moving at least. Pulled the camera card on the way out. Three different bucks look like two 8's and a possible 10 on the camera and several does. Things are looking better. Yesterday and today was the first two days I have seen deer from the stand. Off to work tomorrow good luck to those lucky enough to be hunting.

    Well I got dressed tonight and thought I would shoot my bow quick before heading out. Found out it was shooting 4 FEET to the right. Lost 2 arrows somewhere in the grass. So adjusted and realized my arrow rest wasn't quite right had a brush smashed. Went to tree. Wind was not how they predicted. So wrong for the stand I was in. Still sat doe walks out. Down wind of me. Ranged her at 20. Then she smelled me. So I went easy drawling back, got on her with branch on my way. Finally clean shot figured 35. CLEAN MISS RIGHT UNDER BELLY. So got down after little buck left. Went to town only thing I could find was whiker. Got bow sighted in using car headlight and house light be back in am.

Im also a lawn care and landscaper and climb in the truck sweating and stinky. Also any food smells that linger almost anything, jus plug it in and give it a lil time and smells will vanish, poof magic!! Well sort of.. farts not so mich meed to roll window down and baby diapers too.. But on a lil more serious not the thing does work and very well.. It will bother people tho if it's plugged in and ther not use to it, dries your nose out kinda funny like but i love mine!!!

    Didn't see anything except a nice sunset
    Was not on my usual property so decided to mess around with fawn in distress call at the end of the night
    Anyone have any luck with that call this time of year in Minnesota?
