    Never know could have some cool images of the tornado itself. I'd be interested in seeing them if so.

    @HillviewHuntClub what's it been like since you've been out? You're only about 20 minutes ir so from where I hunt.

    Slow or action packed?

    Tonight's hunt is more of an observation hunt than anything else. There is a small rub in front of me leading into the pines. I'm only about 8ft up. The deer will be right on top of me if they come out through the pines 1573072238103.jpg

    I'm not big on tomorrow with the wind, still hunting so anything can happen. I'm predicting Friday or Saturday is going to be my first action day.

    Either the cold calm wind set up or decent wind but a bit of warmth with it.

    Saturday tends to be weatherwose closer to when I've killed most of my deer

    I’ve had both. Some sits I’ve seen nothing and some I’ve had bucks chasing does grunting and all the fun stuff. So I’m thinking when the cold weather hits hopefully the action will pick up some more.

    I was talking to a young guy this morning at the parking area, and he showed me pics of the same buck that I had a marginal shot at.

    His pics are better than the couple I have. IMG_0479.JPG IMG_0480.JPG IMG_0481.JPG IMG_0482.JPG

    I would be too if I was at home in NH. I’m at my family’s house in Illinois so I let it go.

    All set up for my second sit on public land in Mark Twain National Forest.

    Since I can't shoot another buck until the 16th I'll be putting my son in all of my good spots and I will just move around in the unknown areas.
