    Well back at it again today after not hunting yesterday because of the crappy conditions. Yesterday was 73 degrees and muggy and today is only 54 degrees with a cool 10mph wind out of the NE. Pretty sure it was a pretty severe storm last night while a slept judging by the flooded low land areas this morning. Hopefully that combination along with the urge to find love will get them moving this morning.

    Good luck all!

    Didn't bump anything, surprising with as bright as the moon is this morning. Seen a few on drive here. One was either a small spike or doe, mouth wide open like it had been running hard.

    6 years ago yesterday and 1 year ago tomorrow I killed my best bucks with bow. Wouldn't mind filling that gap today, the main unknown is how many hunted yesterday.

    Tool the weekend off but am settled in and waiting now. 34, ne wind, rising pressure and Nov. 6. Should be some big deer killed today.
    I'm back in the stand I hunted Friday morning hoping that an older model strolls through. I named this stand the Killin Tree a few years back. Time for it to live up to its name!
    Good luck to everyone that's able to be out. To the rest....well gave fun at work!

    So my original plan was to hunt a ridge top that fed into a large bedding area but the wind direction screwed that up so I am hunting over a food plot. Already head something moving in the timber behind me.

    Steep terrain to the east of a bedding area. Hopefully will funnel a buck through here...

    Leaving in the morning headed to Illinois for 6 days of hard public land hunting. Can't wait. Good luck to everyone that's getting after it this morning.

    1 more day and rutcation for me. Major storm rolled through last night and temps are supposed to drop to highs of mid 50's and lows in the lower 30's. I may have timed it right for once!
