    It's 2:30, and I just got in my stand.. Nice day out, but it could be a little cooler. Good luck to everyone out there tonight, and this weekend.[​IMG][​IMG]

    I don't think I've ever seen a deer while hunting in the rain. This blows.

    Thanks I always read about having realistic expectations for the area we hunt. I know a groundhog frequents my stand. Not sure about deer but Hunting in Pa sometimes we have to have different expectations of success!

    Drove up to Wisconsin to meet up with Trevor, we are in the bale blind this afternoon with the decoy. I'm working the camera this weekend for him. Hopefully we can put something down. [​IMG]

    Climbed down at 3:30. Uncle started bush hogging again and lost confidence. That dead deer ended up being a 4pt.

    Yay, I didn't get skunked, just had a small 8 walk by in a hurry. I grunted at him, he stopped for a second then went into the trees and started snorting at me.

    Still not seeing anything. But its getting to about 1.5 hours of light left so shouldn't be long. Picked a bad day to forget gloves.
