    Well I just got off work early so I’m heading out for the PM sit. It’s about 75 degrees here so I’m not expecting much out of this sit but you can’t kill them from the couch, right?

    They really are inspirational. You don't need the most sponsors, or high end gear, or 80 acres of private well maintained land. Hell you don't even need camo or even a damn treestand. You just need to get your butt out in the fields and woods and get it done

    Yeah, but the lights and sirens to your hunting spot may be overkill.

    Good luck, buy a bear tag already.

    I’m heading out, not playing it safe and going to the cedar thicket, it’s 82 out, let’s see what happens.

    I'm up guys! I may have just walked into my biggest honey hole ever! I got goosebumps just sitting here with the anticipation! Unbelievable buck sign in here. Walked past 30 or more fresh scrapes just getting in here.

    32 with calm winds and 3" of fresh snow.
    I think I'm gonna sit in a ground blind this eve over looking a scrape the bucks are freaking tearing up!
    I'm not used to sitting in a pop-up but this spot is just too good to pass up.
    I do have a treestand within 20 yards but the deer can and do come from ever direction so I set up the blind in a meadow hoping to minimize anything coming downwind.
    Good luck p.m.ers.
    Bout time for some horns to be showing up.

    Already got something walking thru the marsh in front of me. Can hear it walking in the water heading my way. About 40 yards out.

    so my boss decided to make me the SPO contact on rolling out teams.. - I told him for the next 4 weeks I would be out on vacation every thu - sun... he thinks it's going to be easy...? Yep managers have no idea how complicated it is working with dumb donkeys!

    Break 1niner this should be in the Rant thread!

    Glad I took a walk, lots of rubs, I’m sitting on a scrape line, wind in my face. They look active, they are dry, but there are no leaves covering them. I’m in between to good travel corridors, as long as I don’t lose light, this might be a good hunt.

    Almost got to my blind only to see a giant buck chasing a doe around in front of my blind. Ugh! They never seen me and they headed into the swamp. So I ran across the field and jumped into my blind. Now hopefully they come back out.
