    Nothing dead but a great sit. Watched a fork horn in a food plot for about 30 minutes. 4 does came out and the fork horn starting chasing and working the does! I watched this for another 30 minutes and then I ran out of light! Cool sit!

    Ended seeing four does, a yearling, and button buck. Only thing that got close enough to shoot was the button buck. Then jumped three deer on my way out. Sigh

    I went back to the farm I was at on Friday. The end of the field where I moved my blind is about 70 yards wide, and the deer were all giving my blind a pretty wide berth. Since we had a west wind this afternoon, I set my stand up in a patch of about 8 cottonwoods on the east side of the field in hopes of seeing the nice buck that was hanging out under them Friday. I knew it was pretty aggressive, because the buck seems to hang out in the willows to the east, but there was enough of a southern component to it that I was willing to chance it. Well, after I stopped counting does at 15, and knowing the land owner wants does taken, I decided to burn my last tag on a doe. A good size yearling popped out into the field, and when it got to 20 yards I came to full draw. It was behind a tree, so I held like that for at least a minute. Finally I had to let down, and it walked in to ten yards. With 20 minutes of shooting light left I sent the arrow through it, and watched it disappear about 30 yards away. I was pretty sure it was down. I waited a bit, and then got down to find my arrow. After having no success I went and got the keep and drove out to get my deer. It was right where I saw it disappear. I dragged it out in front of the Cherokee so I could field dress it. I was reminded at that point that a lone yearling doe in the middle of October is probably a button buck. Oh well, it will eat good. To top it off I had elk curry with rice when I got home.

    P.S. Shadow, that looked really good. I woul have responded from the stand, but I left my phone in the blind Friday, and it was dead when I found it this afternoon.

    Rain just stopped. Deer all over the sides of the road today. Winds are picking up. Saw a slammer on the way in......that will probably translate to me not seeing a deer. Hahahaha
