    wow, thanks good to know. I have my clover and early season mix pretty worked out, but always on the lookout for better late season mixes. The don't seem to like our Central 'Sconnie sand country much. Even when we lime the crap out of it I think the biggest radish I ever got was less than half that size.

    Shotgun weekend here as you know. Didn't get a permit this year so couldn't go out.

    I'll be back out Thanksgiving morning, weekend will be rain dependent.

    After that it's weekends/Holidays only. Have 2 5 day weekends for Christmas and New Years, and can hunt unyil Jan. 20th if need be but would like to be done after this coming weekend.

    Ended up seeing what I think was a decent 8 point about 100 yards away with about 20 minutes of light left. Didn’t see a doe but he acted like he was locked down with one. Completely ignored my attempt to grunt to him. On Monday, I was able to grunt a couple of bucks into bow range but did not get a shot opportunity. Looks like lockdown.
