    Yeah thieves are A holes. Sorry LC.

    Well that spot was a bust. Right as I was lowering my bow a coyote came through the creek bed about 20 yards. I froze, he froze and we both stared at each other as if to say the same thing. Sonofabi...

    Oh well I'm headed to cruise some public spots to see who's parked where. Then its home to take more medicine. Might hunt tonight if I dont cough up a lung.

    Good luck erbody.

    I didn't see any deer this morning but I expected that. It's this evening that I'm betting on.

    Talk to you folks this evening.

    We have a 50 acre piece of private that is mostly a swamp and a field that is fenced off with cows and sheep, only about 10-15 huntable acres, the public piece we are on is decent, just like to complain!!! But I will be writing a few letters this week to try to get some permission, figure it’s worth a shot. There are a ton of deer around the private farm we hunt but for some reason they don’t use the acres we have to hunt lol

    Well, I had planned on heading out this morning to scout the piece of public that is 15 minutes from my house that I drew the limited access archery permit. Unfortunately, my wife has a terrible head cold and she is on her bye week, so I stayed home. The toddler woke up at 5:45 this morning. I decided to build up points with my wife for November.

    I decided to double check my broadhead tuning after setting it up last month. The broadheads are shooting dead on out to 40 yards which is good enough for me. The woods I hunt are too thick for anything further than 30 yards. Good luck if you are out today. Heat index is 103 this afternoon so I am taking my boys iceskating. I hate this heat.

    Wise choice. Spend your points wisely. Lol. With 4 kids I’ve been there and done that.

    Set up a new spot on public land. Wayyyyy back. Not a stand in sight, except mine of course. I'm way up too, ladder is only 20ft but the tree is on a 15ft embankment. so I have a superb view. Deer will come from behind me or across in front of me. I like this spot. Come on in Booner Buck..

    I have three boys all under the age of 8. I have learned that getting hunting is going to be difficult for the next several years. It is best pick quality opportunities versus quantity. 100 degree heat indexes in mid September are not quality.

    Seems pretty quiet across the nation. Maybe this full moon.
