    Good luck to everyone out. Wish I could be in the tree but it’s back to the heat plant.

    I'm here 20 feet up for the first time. It's raining. Hard to type with a wet screen. I'll try later after rain pushes thru

    Raining cats & dogs out there. If it were deer I'd think about it but I'll be showered and ready to go the second it stops. Radar doesn't look good. Station says 12.00pm

    Rake a trail in. If they are there it may be worth the effort.

    Live from my brain.....

    I'm considering on cutting the cord of attachment and saying Eff it to the sentimental value I have on the spot where I hunt for next season and future seasons. I put in so many hours on the stand, drive time (1 hour each way), and spend quite a bit of money on gas and tags, to only have one or two deer sightings. It doesn't make sense anymore. I'm debating on trading a season's worth of this BS for only hunting 5-7 days in a row out at the DIY outfitter in Illinois I used to go to. Where I know I have better odds at a great buck in one sit than all of my sits for the season in CT combined.
    The only reason why I'm leaning towards the DIY outfitter is because they have everything at the camp, walk in coolers/freezers, processing stations. as oppposed to going somewhere on my own where I won't have access to any of those amenities. IDK, something to think about.

    Sorry, good luck this morning everyone!!

    Ok LFTS folks...I am finally in a tree for my first hunt of the year. It feels great to be back. I am hunting a public piece of land that I have never hunted before. Tons of acorns in here. Over the last 2 days the temperature has dropped over 20 degrees. Nice brisk morning here in Arkansas. If it’s brown, it’s down. Let’s see what happens. Good luck to all who are out.

    A beautiful sit so far, it doesn't matter that it rained on me for the first hour I was in a tree or that I have only seen 2 fawns. This is my first sit of the new season and I've waited for this since 11/10/18 when I killed my buck last year.

    It's a cool morning of 52 / 53 degrees a slight wind out of the ssw .

    NOW I WANT TO KILL A DEER
