    Tonight's low of 65 followed by 73 degrees at noon before temps start dropping. Rain most of the morning. Was almost tempted but Still think Wed. is the better day and now looking like Thursday is the best day with light southeast winds. Absolutely perfect wind for 2 stands. Might be switching back and forth throughout the day Thursday.

    Got some nice cloud cover at least. I hate getting a sunburn when I’m hunting

    Well I had 2 days to take off this week, pushed them back to next week when the temps will be 20-30 degrees cooler here, I hope I’m not too late by then

    Clouds really do help. You loose the shadows. I just don't enjoy myself when it's 70F+ and sunny when I'm hunting the rut! I'm waiting until the end of the week, when we're supposed to get some moisture and cooler temps.

    I'd prefer Nickleback but to each his own.

    Tomorrow is going to be a washout-1.5" of rain expected. With so little rut activity in my hunting areas, perhaps the bucks will be out to freshen up their scrapes Wed.

    In any case, I will be out all day Wed for another Veterans Day buck.

    I do feel your pain! In my last 6 consecutive sits, which consisted of a total of 26 hours, I've seen no deer at all.
