    I'm up in the stand! Not as bad as I thought. It's so thick in this bottom you or deer can't see real far. Made for easy entry, plus all of it being wet. I can smell a deer up wind. Didn't hear anything run off, so hopefully there still bedded. I'm directly in between were the 2 bucks were yesterday. I'll try and update as I can.

    Trying to figure out my game plan for tomorrow with this full moon. Moon guide says high mid-day activity. I saw mid day activity yesterday when i was driving to my spot. There were 8-10 doe feeding in an open field around 1:15. My gut is telling me it is to early for any type of mid-day sit though. thoughts?

    I’m up, have to clean some shooting lanes but I’m liking this spot so far, 30 yards to each of the trail heads.

    If I listened to my gut the other day, I would have killed the 12pt I’m after, but I went with my safe choice and went home empty handed.
    Whatever your gut tells you, do it and don’t talk yourself out of it.

    Congrats to those who have gotten a deer. This is finally my first sit of the year. Not s blue bird day but it beats sitting around thinking of the crap that awaits my work day tomorrow.

    Working on that! Just poured down rain for 30 minutes, starting to slow down. I'm in a better position to shoot the 8 if he comes out this way.

    Holt! The only reason any of us woke up this morning is to see just how big this 8 is after you kill him tonight, good luck man!

    I am finally up a tree and ready to unleash a Ramcat tipped beman arrow! Let’s roll

    Ever have that feeling something good is about to happen? Something big is going down this evening, not saying just me, but LFTS is going to get wild.
