    Had 10 does come out 200 yards away. Fed for 15 minutes and then they took off. Not sure what spooked them. I was waiting on them to close the gap between us.

    P.S
    If your not worried about joints, note, it helps to stop hair loss.

    I'm nearly 60, but apart from a thinning spot, still holding onto most of my hair.

    I have so many pages to catch up on. Just had to give the phone a break over the weekend. Had enough going on with gun season and group texts. Pretty much gun season was our worst ever since i started going in 1991. Nothing moving. We even did a few drives and very little was seen. Had a great time though. Come back to a mess at work. Then today these bucks just start cruising by our cams. Showing up way late compared to last year. Makes me wonder if the doe/buck ratio is out of whack where these big bucks live. Who knows. :confused: imagejpeg_0.jpeg imagejpeg_0.jpeg imagejpeg_0.jpeg Resized_1732656363358_357220501296593_1732656363517.jpeg imagejpeg_0.jpeg IMG_9150.jpeg IMG_9149.jpeg

    I had does coming in, but just a few minutes too late. The plan was good. I kill a couple of does out of that group of 9.

    I think I got some frostbite on a finger last year. I cannot keep it warm and it hurts.

    Any favorite rechargeable hand warmer you guys love?

    Amazon has many. I have tried a few and what I have learned it is important to get the highest capacity so it will last a long time. It's also important that the unit heats on both sides. One thing to remember is none of them last forever. You will probably get about three seasons out of them. Just my experience.

    This has been a rough season. Hoping they move over the next 4 to 5 days. I'll need a miracle.

    Well the total was 13 seen tonight on the green field. Called a 90 inch 8 point to 40 yards for fun with a grunt call. Still a lot of time left to kill a yearling doe. Too much fun for it to be over yet! I got another full month of this entertainment!

    Damn, them not moving during the gun season was a wonderful thing. You still have plenty of targets and it ain't over. With these temps coming up, fuggetaboutit!
    I'm hoping to get back down there on Friday afternoon for a long weekend. Gotta pick up my deer from the processor anyways but man, gonna be some cold mornings :eek2:

    I bought a pair of Ocoopa last year. They heat on both sides and are 10,000 mah. I’ve been really happy with them.
    They have several models, can’t remember which mine are specifically.

    I don’t know how high that cell tower is but the guy was on the top working and whatever he did the guys on the ground weren’t happy. They all seemed fine when I got there but hearing their conversation when I was leaving somebody didn’t do something right and they will have to do it all again tomorrow. Definitely not hunting that spot I could hear them across the whole hill. I didn’t see anything but squirrels. 74841BE2-A379-462D-ADDB-39F2F86C322B.jpeg

    I'm ordering a pair, black friday discounts going on. Maybe save a little money in the long run from those king size disposable ones that I buy by the truck load

    You are far from alone. Ive talked to people on both sides of river. There are pockets and spurts of good action but most people i know are having a slow season. The pics in that post were Ll from today and thats more mature daylight buck pics than ive had all season so far. Im not giving up hope but willing to accept defeat if it happens. Cant win em all. I let a few go. I didnt kill a buck last year either so it will just make me hungrier .
