    Heard it many time.
    Mostly while sitting in a bear stand.
    Sometimes so close it'll make you wanna call for someone to come in and get you.
    Awesome but pucker factor at the same time.

    Well I didn't see any deer. I really thought I would being between bed and beans. If they moved before dark they didn't come by me at all. I'll catch up here later. Gotta drive another half hour home.

    That was an awesome opening day hunt! Didn’t let an arrow go but saw more than I thought I would. One real nice buck. Basket rack 8 with a giant body. I think he was 3 y.o. with small rack. Helped my buddy track and drag a spike buck he shot. Good times.

    There she is. Definitely the most I have ever spent on a tree stand. The little bow mount should be here tomorrow. Excited to practice with it

    Probably part of it. I was sitting by several oaks the the suirrels, omg the squirrels, were working over pretty good. Saw several fresh scrapes nearby and some massive old rubs. Right spot wrong timing I think. Plus it was my first time hunting this farm. Still had a damn blast. Saw a tank of a racoon.

    Ready. Didn’t forget my phone this time so now I can stay distracted. Good luck.

    another note my buckle on my fanny pack broke when I got to the tree and my wife’s already cut me off from my allowance.
