    Been fighting off yellow jackets since I got in this tree. If there’s deer here, I’m sure they saw me swatting every few minutes.

    I'm awake now. A strong gust of wind dislodged a dead branch and it hit my right arm on the way down. Scared the crap out of me.

    It didn't hurt too bad but I should have a nice bruise tomorrow.

    I'm just thankful it wasn't bigger and that it didnt hit my bow.

    Yeah, they did. :lol:

    The scare was the worst part because I was in that almost dozing off state.

    I am covered up with does and fawns, not an antler to be seen. Where I hunt is one and done so these deer all get a pass from me

    View from State land tonight.... It's my first time hunting this spot it's quite a ways from where anyone hunts so hopefully I'll see some action. After the work I put in to get back here I sure hope I see some movement! IMG_20170930_164521567.jpg
