    Alright guys , need some opinions. I plan to hunt tomorrow evening. What should i do.

    Go after the bucks? This will be mostly a observation to locate a good buck.

    Or go to a easy spot and shoot a doe? I have a nice bean field that loads up with deer and mostly likely be a sure thing. Of course now i said that, i probably wouldn't see a thing, haha!

    I would shoot a doe if you have a few to pick from. Went in yesterday and cut some shooting lanes out for my stand. Got the safety line up, hooks in the tree and moved camera to a new scrape i found. I will be out of the country when Ohio opens its season. Probably won't get out until middle of October. Seen alot of does on camera and a couple small spikes. Just have the one Pic of the buck I showed you guys earlier.

    Unless the camera is not getting any pictures of anything over the scrape. I won't go back into my spot until it's time to put an arrow into something.

    Think i made ip my mind. I will continue to buck hunt. Then if a doe gives me a chip shot, i will take it. The buck will be the hardest part for me, so should just keep after that.

    Didn't see a deer. Becomes a common theme when looking for a buck. Got to weed thru all the old bedding areas looking for one that is home.

    Nice work, VW! Got us on the board.
    I'm finally up in the inside corner of a corn field. It's a pretty major travel corridor as it is out of sight when there is crop in. The wind is blowing out onto the corn, so unless I get ambushed from straight away in the corn, by the time they'd have a chance to wind me, it'd be too late. I passed a couple of does and a couple of smaller bucks out of this location early season last year.
    Classic first sit of the year... I forgot my knee pads. It's going to be a slightly less than comfortable sit. On the plus side, the new skeletor sticks are really nice! [​IMG]
