    Just heading out for the evening sit, really windy here so I'm sitting in a stand we know they use this hill when it's windy. Good luck to all!

    Today was opening day for me, didn’t go this morning. But got out here as fast I could. Now patiently waiting. Got a couple of good bucks using this trail. [​IMG]

    Heading to our oldest ones hockey game. Maybe I can get out in the morning.
    Good luck Axtell. If it sprayed out both sides, you should be in good shape.

    I won’t see a deer probably tonight but this will be one of my best hunts of the year.

    I have both of my kids in a. Ground blind with me hunting my own property. Doesn’t get much better than this

    What was I thinking getting out here so early when I'm so tired?

    I know this spot and I know that this early in the season I'll be lucky to see a deer before 5:30.

    Well, I'm here. Now I just have to stay awake.

    Finally in a tree. First sit of the year for me. Sitting in a new woods plot just south of corn. Quite windy.

    Haven't been back here since we planted. Doesn't look like we had good germination.

    I expect to see nothing. I have done zero prep work or scouting. I just grabbed a stand this afternoon and hung it in a random spot with a few trails intersecting.
