    Convinced the wife to come sit with me tomorrow afternoon for the first time, well be sitting in a blind and I promised she could talk if she whispered, on camera Ive had deer everyday this week so hopefully I didnt mess it up today when I went in! I would love to get her to see some deer in the blind with me, maybe convince her to get into a little

    Shot a doe last night. Shot was high. Only a little tallow on the arrow and a small bit of blood on the fletchings. Couldn't find blood. Did a grid search after that. Nothing.

    My wife delivered our baby girl on September 17, so this morning is the first time I have made it on stand. First stand I planned on hunting, the straps were all rotted away. Thankfully I didn't climb in to find this out. Second stand is perfect. Temp is 42 which is about 7 degrees cooler than what was forecast last night. Good luck to all who are out.
