    Nice
    Shooting over 80 makes a 33 yard shoot a chip in

    Those who are hunting soon goodluck, went to hang more cams at my urban spot and someone put a ground blind, trophy rock and trailcam directly under my hang on. Not sure if they even have permission to hunt back there, also not allowed to have minerals in the ground 30 days prior to the season. And our season starts in two weeks. Might have screwed me huntjng my hang on in that spot. Going to talk to the land owner tonight.

    Ok. Not the best diagram, but I'm a little slow. The red dot is my blind. The green triangle is the high grass area, and the blue triangle is where I attempted planting some chow. Little tough to see but the purple dot is my camera, and the black line is the trail to get in there.

    The stand idea I will be doing next year for sure. This particular spot though I would have to choose a side to put a stand. The tree in the middle of the clearing isn't a good tree for a stand. I may work on "pruning" it next summer though.

    Man I wish we had better waterfowl hunting here in GA. I grew up duck hunting in Sacramento. It's a blast

    Early goose opener here in Illinois. We've got pretty good waterfowl hunting around me that's what I was raised on.

    Sitting in my tree stand trying to decide what to trim back. Its a deer highway 20 yards to my left. I have to cut a new path to my stand as to not walk on their highway.

    Tried to load pics but it keeps giving me a security error.
