    I sat until noon and didn't see a deer. Maybe they all froze to death or maybe I killed them all.

    Took a 2 hour break and now in a tree on a different property.

    In the ground blind with my son for the last couple hours of daylight. Trying to get him his first with a crossbow. 48 degrees and a NW wind which is perfect for this set up. Hopefully, something moves in range. I still have an either sex and two doe tags left. I may shoot if he isn’t comfortable or if it is too far.

    Settled into a blind.Dropped my younger brother of in a comfy tripod stand with a nice view.

    Bumped one little doe on the way in about 100 yards from the blind,it looks like the one that was with the doe I shot this morning.

    Oh my good Lord!

    I just had to watch a giant walk by because I don't have a buck tag.

    What a brute! I'm shaking like a leaf right now.

    In the latest issue of OL there was a dude who said warm fronts are just as good as cold fronts...the last 4 days have had a high of around 40,right now it's 55 so if his theory is correct tonight should be a good night.

    I wonder if squirrels make good decoys? Got one close enough to the blind I can almost grab it.

    Checked cameras today and everything is fully nocturnal around my house.
    Dropped minerals today and put out a feeder and hoping with it going very cold around and snow be able to draw in some daylight movement at the house
