    Well I climbed a tree this morning saw a 4 pt and a doe. I was about to kill the doe and get my first self filmed kill when two tree rats decided to go crazy and spook her, oh well.

    Froze my *** off and didn't see a thing. Did get to change the batteries in a few cameras and found a few new rubs so not a total loss.

    I planned to stay longer but the extreme cold pain in my foot became more then I could stand today.

    jfergus - I understand your pain, I was out this morning and it was more then I could stand. 3 degrees plus wind = no good. We did however get 6 inches of snow last night so that will help. Hopefully get out this weekend again.
