    Where goes the does? Who knows but the bucks nose.


    Wind shift coming shortly, maybe a few will reposition for it. At this rate I'll probably head out when the 30mph wind and rain set in.

    And now the rain, sprinkling for now but its a cold sprinkle. Really wish it would snow but not supposed to change over until after sunset.

    Snow falling while in stand is hard to beat.

    I'm in a stand close to a couple of nice rubs. I think I'm hunting this stand a little too late since they're beginning to chase now.

    Just downed a 5 hour energy, time to KILL!

    OK been here awhile, actually not where I had intentions of going. came across a good trail with rubs leading from bedding to food (corn field). Its really tight in here but I wouldn't be able to see the trail from the open woods behind me.

    **also I have no idea how I ever hunted without a lone wolf and sticks. Ive yet to even sit in my climber this year and didn't even bring it up here with me. Its almost like this tree is cooler than throne i hunted yesterday. :tu:

    It's been so slow here in MD. Need colder temps. Haven't seen many does or bucks. A couple small ones chasing a week ago but nothing since.

    That doesn't help me now! I agree though that colder weather is coming but I feel like all the does will be bred by then haha.
