    I'm headed out for the day, but with the Remington 7400 30-06. Going to slowly make my way as far back as I can looking for good sign and then just hang out on a good trail till something with antlers hopefully strolls by. Roughly 20,000 acres of hardwoods and overgrown fields out there waiting for me. Pack with snacks and water coming with me for the all dayer.

    Set and in the woods. And doing exactly what VWT plans, except, I found this area last week while hiking out - along a long line of scrape through the woods. If it's brown, it's down. Half day sit as the storm over TN works east.

    On the drive here, I was thinking 'I haven't seen a deer yet along the road (dead or alive)... Car passes me, still a bit light blind and immediately, there is a spike running toward my car on the shoulder.

    Not liking this wind, will probably move if it doesn't stabilize and blow from one direction.

    I'm up and headed out to feed dogs and put wood in the stove.
    Need to see what the wind is doing to figure out where to hunt.

    Poke holes in something!

    Your not by chance superstisious (sp)??

    Solution: just grow the beard year round. Do not name it. Find what you like and keep it. Save a few bucks n razor blades and 5 minutes each morning.:evilgrin::evilgrin:

    Getting ready. Should be up in plenty of time before day break but this wind perfectly ruined where I wanted to go this morning. Switching up but not super stoked about it. Good luck y'all.

    Forgot it was the youth gun weekend. Had to go home and grab my hunter orange. Jumped in the stand closest to the truck....so irritated this is not where I want to be.

    Good luck guys, stay focused.

    Had an unknown trot by about 45 minutes ago. Too dark to see, but I suspect a buck, along the military crest.

    Just got settled in my stand. I find it hard to get motivated hunting back in Maine after hunting the Midwest.

    Very quiet so far. Wind swirling a little out of the east. If that keeps up this will be a short sit.
