    Opening night from Michigan. I like the east wind. It allows me to hunt stands that are not always available due to the wind.

    Arrows flying
    Deer are dying!

    Good luck fellas

    Only about an hour left until sunset here in SE Indiana. Starting to cool off nicely. Hopefully they start moving soon.

    I made it out, a little late but managed to sneak passed a doe and get in the stand. She was 150 yards and fed away about half hour ago finally got settled. Feels GREAT to be in a tree. Hopefully the big guy slips up this spot has been great when wind switches from north to south congrats all morning kills and good luck all that are out live from the stand!!!![​IMG]

    I just got chased out of my stand by lightning. Looks like it might pass by pretty quickly though.

    Lol, I thought the same thing this morning.

    Watched the sunrise and thought to myself..."it's finally here". Then seen a small buck and it felt like it had never ended. After that I started asking myself what the heck I was thinking doing this again :lol:

    try holding your phone vertical. sometimes holding it sideways messes it up.

    Well, I had to work the whole weekend but I enjoyed keeping up with all of y'alls hunting and killing, Only problem was I spent more time checking the thread than getting work done. Congrats to everyone who had success.

    Well I didn't see anything tonight. But I was hunting with my brother, and he shot a doe. Not much of a blood trail but she didn't go far.
