    No deer moving at all.

    All I’ve seen is a handful of squirrels and one raccoon. I’m really surprised at the lack of movement.

    Im going to sit until 10:00 or 10:30 and I guess I’ll move to the “dirt bike” stand for the afternoon sit.

    Made it to the area we bumped elk yesterday. We'll give it a bit to see if they return to this bedding area or if they were bumped to the next county... [​IMG]

    Sbot fired on lead cow. She stepped as I shot at 35yds,hit back, but buried to fletch. Possible liver, but hoping I clipped that renal artery.

    I just looked at my Hunt Calendar app.

    The minor movement window for mid-day here is supposed to be 9:30 - 11:30. I’ll just stay here until 11:30 -12:00 to see if one comes to get a mid-day drink.

    It’s not like I have anything else to do when I get down.

    Man she was cautious and cagey like your doe.. Came in, stood at 50 looking and smelling, turned to walk down hill and into my lane. Wasn't sure if she was gonna blow or turn towards me.

    Early morning so, hoping we can find her...

    Good luck on the elk track! I sat yesterday out because of gale force winds. We'll see what today brings :confused:

    Good luck today
