    Pa opener is only 8 days away. I can't believe it is almost here. Will be looking to take out this buck IMAG0054.jpg the first day. I won't be able to hunt him in the morning because we have baseball practice but he has been showing up regularly around 6:30 every few nights. After that i'll be looking for a mature slickhead to get some meat.

    Hunteropel, Congrats to your buddy. Sounds like a heck of a deer, mind sharing a pic?

    I'm in stand infront of a cold front, hope to kill a doe, see if the rain holds. Good luck all!

    Congrats to your friend, heck of a buck!

    Mother Nature is trying to rain on my parade next weekend, I never buy into weather that far out but it bears watching. It will be a morning of radar decision should it pan out, which with my luck it's likely.

    Good luck Tuesday morning and anyone else hunting tomorrow and/or Monday.

    My Son and I did some final prep's on stand sites this morning, and swapped out camera cards. We are ready to roll! Got a couple decent bucks on camera too. Nothing that takes your breath away, but it's good to see them up and around. All the deer I have on camera look healthy, so that's always a plus!

    Went ahead and put my camera back on the bow today, I'll practice a few times using the zoom and such but contemplating taking the remote off and leaving it at a fixed zoom. Up in the air on it, some shots are 35yds others as close as 5, makes it hard to choose that happy medium.

    Picking up my first set if tags Wed. after work and weather/work aside I'll be out an hour before sunrise on Friday. Hoping for a quick 50 on the board. Can't wait to get out there!
