    Go for it VS. Not sure when your breeding dates are but it's basically over here now. Bucks are back cruising hard.

    I have one doe tag left and our forecast shows cold temps coming soon.
    Today is windy but nice .high 30s.
    Think I'm gonna do something I haven't done in years. Go in full Ninja, even a nett mask and sit in a blow down behind the cabin.i watched about 12 deer go by 10 yards from it before dark yesterday.
    Rekindle my youth when I was so poor and couldn't afford a stand and had to sit on the ground or a tree limb.

    My old buddy that shot that nice buck last week may come out as well. He has a doe tag also.

    Good feeling a great chance at a double up?

    Rain/ sleet and the wind is on and off debating to head out I don’t have a good feeling of seeing anything after some time in the recliner I’ll decide. I only saw 1 doe this morning I kicked up walking the power line, no shot.

    Up in my climber, man have I been spoiled with all ladder stands and elevated blinds. And this hazmore seat seemed fine 10 years ago, not so much now.

    Wind picking up and temps dropping. Feels like upper 30s. Come on bucks.

    I’m out and up a tree for the last sit of gun season. I really don’t think there is much point in being out here. This area I live in crawls with gun hunters when rifle season is open and towards the end the deer are almost exclusively nocturnal.

    Still, I felt like being out since the weather is perfect.

    That’s about what it is here. It’s nice and overcast here too which always makes me think it might happen.
