    Feels great here today. Actually was working in a hoody.
    Got 4 spots finished.

    Some have grape vines for liking branches and some have ponderosa pine for thrashing.
    And the stands guarding them.
    The last pic is what the vast omajorityf my land lookso like.
    Pure bedding cover.

    Headed out shortly to our destination. Might as well sit and wait at the spot instead of our hotel room. Shoot the bows and hang out for a few hours before heading in.

    20220522_144759.jpg 20220903_104345.jpg Cool front there today Jake?

    Good luck.

    Just checked a cam. He finally showed up. Knew he would.
    Looks like he lost a few inches from last year but I don't care.
    He's a big old brute.

    Top ping is where we are parking. Bottom ping is 4 large white oaks. 150”+ was there last night and other deer there this morning when we drove by. Perfect SE wind tonight. My buddy gets to go after the big one since he gave me the good spot yesterday. I’ll set up more to the north on some other oaks. The plan is fool proof. Just need deer to cooperate.

    Rain drove me out of the woods this morning. It's been sunny and hot since I got back to camp.

    I'm about to go and hang another stand but I don't think I'll get to hunt it this evening. Last I looked the weather says 90% chance of thunderstorms at 6:00 pm.

    Ugh.

    Oh well. I did run to Wally World and pick up a cheap set of camo Frogg Toggs rain gear and some cheap rubber boots. Maybe I can hunt until the heavens open up and make it back to camp without getting soaked. I don't have any way to dry my gear here.

    I went and found a spot for my second stand. It's in a small patch of woods I've only sat twice, and I missed a nice velvet 8 point there a few years ago.

    I walked on in along Mayfield Creek and found one heck of a creek crossing going into a standing corn field. There is a major trail crossing the creek and it intersects a main trail following the creek.

    It looks like a good spot. Now I just need the weather to let me hunt. At least the rain this afternoon will wash my scent away from both spots.

    I just check the weather again. It's going to storm starting about 6:00. Maybe before.

    I was planning on going out and sitting until the deluge started, but I just looked at the weather again and the wind is going to be out of the ENE now. That's terrible for both stands I put up.

    Figures.

    I guess I'll sit around the camper this evening. Someone post something interesting and give me something to do.

    Chief if you got a shower in your camper it will work to dry wet clothes. Small desk fan hooked up to move air situated under clothes hanging in shower has worked for me in the past. Just close the door an crack the roof vent.

    Yep, I have a full bathroom in here. That's not a bad idea since I have two fans also.

    I now know what to do if I get wet.

    I set up on a oak ridge/pinch point. Property owners fence/4 wheeler trail in front of me and 20 oaks around me. Not dropping a ton of acorns but they are dropping. [​IMG]

    This is officially my first hang and hunt on public ground.
