    First post of the season… Not a good one!

    My friend and I were doing some stand work this morning and I got into some ground hornets pretty bad. Found out I wasn’t allergic about 10 stings and only my briefs on in the woods. It sucked. I’m home and okay. Got a beer and college football on it’s safe here. Haha

    I’ll be on private ground and I’ll be after a buck this evening.

    I don’t shoot does in the evening early season.

    I got to my spots, put my stands on trees and I’m back at the hotel.

    My spot where I had high hopes for a buck got hit by a tornado this spring. Both of my trees were gone.

    I found another but I’ll only be about 15 yards off the field edge and I’ll be pretty open. Good back cover, but I hate being that exposed. Then again, the deer here are fairly stupid.

    The farmer offered to let me hunt their “home place” again this year. He said he knows a good spot and I’m supposed to meet him there at about 3:30 to take a look. Awfully nice of him. They don’t hunt and they just want the “bean eaters” killed.

    Anyway, I should be on stand by 4:00 or 4:30.

    Also, I truly hate wading weeds shoulder high this time of year like I had to to hang one stand.

    I’m really hoping the permethrin did it’s job. I’m about to take a shower anyway.

    I’ll check back in when I’m set up.

    Well at least I got the State right. Beautiful afternoon here, mid 70's not humid, come on Chief get the thread going. A bunch of blow downs should make great bedding cover, don't be too picky, you are the un-official, official "Form Chief". Not too much pressure, just having fun..stuck on couch for another week...

    Did you take the Farmer up on his offer or back to stands you hung?

    I went and looked. The spot he wanted to show me is a spot I hunted last year. It’s nice to know I can go back there.

    I’m in the first stand I hung.
