    Well I don't hunt public much and I hear stories of people who do and it's always something. Someone just came through with a 4 wheeler and a chain saw cutting up something about 200yds away from me. I'll try this spot midweek sometime when the boneheads aren't out.

    No wind now...figures I'm eating dinner. I went out at 3 to replace cards and learned a lot. Pushed a buck out of bedding, and the doe were already piled up in my woods bordering the front field. Now that was a surprise because they are never on us that early in the day. Glad I was alone and going slow. Also cleaned a few trails of big limbs. I got back to pick beans and son turned up with the boys for a great visit.
    So he'd been at camp bow hunting this weekend and I got the low down for there...I will need to take a trip out there soon.

    Sounds good brother! Got my alarm set for 0300. 30-minute drive now for me since we bought our house, and a mile in as well. We need to honor Columbus and paint the forest red!!

    All setup. There was no mention of rain/drizzle in the forecast, yet here I am in the rain and drizzle. I effing hate the rain and getting wet with a passion, I can’t stress that enough. Setup over a fresh scrape line. Probably fools gold, but ya never know with the rain. 1 hour till legal shooting light.

    Hang in there Joe. I hate hunting in the rain too but some of my best sits were right when it slowed down or stopped.

    Plan B is in effect. Came to the ridge I wanted to hunt and was met with a wall of veg. Now I’m on a wide open oak flat and it’s raining acorns.
