    so the 1st was a doe with her tongue hanging out.. Maybe a broken jaw.. she spooked at absolutely nothing in 2 secs and ran.. then a spike.. then 2 does.. then a fork.. seen deer in the other fields and then at dark a doe with triplets came in and right after like 5-6 does/fawns came in. I dont know if I was seeing the same deer multiple times.. but prob close to 20 give or take.

    Almost four hour round trip and didn’t see a deer except on the side of the road coming home. I can’t believe that was the result with how perfect the conditions were.

    Well, I only saw 6 does this afternoon and none of them got closer than 120 yards.

    I can only shoot does here now and muzzleloader season opens in the morning so I'll be taking my TC Encore out. It's been feeling neglected.

    Just got up. Don't have any good morning stands this time of the season.
    I'll be out this afternoon.
    Good Luck everyone!

    I've been on stand since 45 minutes before first light. The wind chill is 15 degrees. Might not sound cold to many of you but just a few days ago it was 70 degrees here and I was going to work with no jacket needed.

    It sure feels cold.

    I haven't seen a thing yet except two coyotes and a raccoon.

    Well in shooting house with my oldest son. We had something happen that was very unusual for Alabama we got about 2" of snow yesterday which made our deer lockdown. It's 26 deg this morning hoping something will get up and move he's got a itchy trigger finger. P.S the rut is just around the corner
