@virginiashadow must not have seen anything last night , cause no follow up on a goal of seeing a buck before Nov 01!
Only does and young bucks last night. Good luck out there this morning. I'll be back out later this afternoon.

Well I missed an opportunity at one of my target bucks yesterday. If you recall I put a stand in an area where I've had quite a few pics of good bucks. Every nice buck I've seen in this spot was traveling north to south........'cept yesterday! This buck has a broken right ear and I've had several pics of him on several cameras in this area. Well yesterday he traveled through again but he's going south to north, something he hadn't done before. I wasn't there because I was only going to hunt it in a north or northwest wind. Yesterday was a strong SW wind and he is traveling SW to NE in the pic, less than 20yds from my newly hung stand! What a chess game. I also attached a few other pics him in the same spot.

Light em up today! I’m gonna work today and Tom with these high temps then hunting Friday/sat. there is a 20* drop Thursday to Friday. A deer I been looking for has been confirmed and I’m going to sit all day Friday and sat. Only takes a few seconds, be ready at all times and keep it straight between the ears! This is the time we all wait for!!
I'm up and in. I had 1 blow at me as I was getting in the stand before light. Nothing since it got light yet.
I’m up, some rain came through early this morning and has cleared out, bigger front coming tonight and tomorrow. Good luck everyone
The weather has been so warm for the past few days but it’s supposed to storm starting about midnight tonight and continue until about 9:00 am tomorrow. Then the temps and the pressure are supposed to plummet and we should have great weather for the peak of the new moon tomorrow afternoon and Friday. I’ve taken the last few sits off and just camp-ratted. This morning I’m going to run home and take care of the deer I killed Saturday evening. I’m also going to get a nice, long shower. Then I’ll come back to camp and get ready for more doe patrol duty.
Not feeling my spot this morning, I’m getting down to look for some sign and maybe walk the logging trail to see if anything has opened up. Supposed to get up to mid 70s here today not sure if I’ll hunt the evening though I did put in time off of work for it.
Here is again at 0719 this AM. Still too dark for a shot but he is in the area Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk
When I was sitting in the dark I noticed a light to my south, which is odd. The new neighbors to the south have twenty acres that butts up to mine and must be hunting it now. This would explain some of the lack of movement here. The problem is that the wind swirls so bad where they are hunting and they are not paying attention to that… also little do they know that my stench is blowing directly at them
Im still in the tree,but not as fun as yesterday. Several deer moved thru before light and saw one doe thus far. Temps are depressing. Camera blew up over community scrape but all night pics.( will someone hold the light for me )Probably 10 different bucks went thru that camera and some doe. Tried a little grunting and rattling no bueno. Neighbor land owner didn’t give permission just messaged me little bit ago. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
