    Went out to hang up a stand today and found a rub and a scrape, I believe I'm set up downwind of some good doe bedding so I'm hoping this will be a good rut stand

    Set up in a corner between bedding and food plot. Wind feels like it is about 60 mph?? Tree is rocking but HSS harness on! Good luck all!

    Heart was just racing. Heard bunch of crashing coming behind me. Got all ready and a mother father and 4 year old family come walking thru. Not my land so all I could do was wave. They were polite and headed back out.

    That sucks but at least it's still early enough, anything can happen.

    Same way here. The wind feels like it's gonna blow this tree down but I'm strapped in for the ride. Good luck boys!

    Yeah. I was only 15 minutes ahead of them. Suburban hunting today. 75 yards off someone’s back door. Wind is right and only had 3 hours.

    Been in the stand for about an hour here in IL. The only update I can provide is that this wind sucks!

    Snuck in to the creek bottoms. Big temp drop today hoping for some movement. Freezer is empty so anything not a baby or young buck is in trouble. Good luck everyone

    Well took a chance with 25 mph wind gust. Just dropped my 1st bow deer. Got a doe. She ran and dropped at about 50 yards. Going to give it a bit before I get down
