    Got everything unpacked, almost caught up on needed chores, but need to order some repair parts for my bow and recheck sighting.

    I may try to get a shot in tomorrow.

    I’m all the way up on Lake Erie in Huron, OH. Should have been a 50 point morning for us but 3 does came in 10 minutes too early. The fog was so thick I couldn’t even seen them at 20 yards out. Gonna give it till 9 but it was already an exciting morning for me.

    I don’t blame you, it’s still getting in the mid 70’s here during the day. Hopefully that cold front comes sooner than later

    0-2 on evening hunts at this swamp

    last year I had a 140’s 9 point sneak up on me while I was on my phone and I never got an opportunity

    tonight I had a little buck sneak up on me when I was setting up my chair. Then at last light the big boy was coming. He was thrashing a tree at 40 yards and slowly coming in. He was a few steps from coming within range but the wind died down and my thermals pulled to the swamp and he boogered out of there.

    I'm wanting to get out, just can't drive an hour each way until it cools a bit.

    Only positive is days get cooler as we head into fall so above normal doesn't necessarily mean 80's, but looking that way over the next week Need a pattern shift though

    My 10 day forecast is looking pretty good. Says highs of mid 60’s with lows in the 40’s starting next Wednesday.
    Unfortunately I only have the 80 degree days off next week lol

    What's somewhat infuriating, we had record low temps to end August and beginning of September. September 7th we dropped to 39 degrees, lows in the 40's in August.

    Hoping for a cooler November this year, that would make up for it, except I have to use all my vacation time in late December.
