    Nothing is moving at all. Well, except woodpeckers. They’re out in force.

    The only thing I’ve seen moving was a meteor about a half hour before dawn.

    I'll take woodpeckers over a murder of crows that find an owl in the morning...

    Good luck!

    Thx for pointing that out. FIXED

    I had to bury our lab/ German Shepard mix a few yrs back. One of hardest things I've done, just under telling someone that a family member was killed by _____( fill in the blank).

    Didn’t end up seeing anything this morning, going to take 30-45 minutes tomorrow morning before work and try to bump something out of a bedding area and past my dad, then that will do it for me for rifle and probably for PA for the year, will start to focus on MD next week

    Slipped out on this beautiful December day to try for a doe with the smoke pole. Would like another deer for the freezer. My view of the corn field and the bedding area.

    2 years ago - same tree same temps in mid December. Thought about heading in with a half an hour of light left, but stuck it out. No way I thought a buck would be moving in the warm December air. 10 minutes before dark 2 bucks cross an open field. Shot the bigger of them - decent 10.

    Let's hope for similar results tonight.

    No chance if you're not out.

    It was this or crappie fishing.

    Since I have an obsession with muzzleloaders almost as bad as archery, I have to ask what smokepole you use and how you like it?

    Got a TC 50 Bone collector. Shoots amazingingly well. I have killed deer with it out to 150 Yds. It's my go to gun during gun season. Got several other rifles that will do the job but the TC gets picked up when I expect a long shot.

    No deer this evening. Did bust a big cyote out of the thicket walking in but didn't have the ML primed! My bad!!!!

    It's all good! I knew you didn't mean anything by it. That's why I laughed.
