    Anyone hunting over acorns? They were the ticket this morning pulling in doe, going to be good again in the morning after all these winds today dropping a fresh supply.

    Just rattled and grunted a little and a littke spike came in. Did something really unexpected and came right behind my stand, like less than 5 yards from hase of tree. Pretty neat though. No we if big brother would do something close to that.

    Hell at this point I would just be happy to see deer on their feet. That will at least give me the motivation to come back tomorrow

    Only the deer here are not acting like it is November. Hoping tomorrow morning is a little better. Supposed to actually get cold tonight.

    My last hour is not looking too good either, got someone driving around the corn field on the property to the north, that is where my bucks have been coming from, no clue what they are doing.

    I was gonna go out and get drunk with the wife tonight, but then I looked at what the temp is supposed to be in the morning, I'll be in a tree instead of in bed hungover.

    Shoot him and glue some tree branches on his head and you got yourself a 140 class buck
