    MN, that is the attitude man. I remember one hunting season I had where I literally had 30 half day to full days sits and only saw 15 deer the entire season. I killed three of those 15.

    The season is long and we will all get there. I hope my new bow arrives tomorrow so I can sight it in and hunt a few times this week.

    I didn't have any luck this past weekend either. I would have a better chance if I could go out on our land and hunt, but we are staying off our land until the youth hunt in a couple weeks. My brother in law is bringing his nephew out for his first hunt so we are leaving that area untouched until he gets a crack at it. Then, all bets are off. So, until then it is public land hunting for me.

    Cabelas didnt deliver my bow on time so I called them today. The PSE series I purchased they claimed they "discontinued". So no bow for me and more than likely I won't be able to hunt again until the Oct 5th bow opener in PA. Ughhhh

    I hunted this afternoon but saw zip. I will be back at it Thursday and Friday morning for short 2 hour hunts. We shall see. After that I won't be able to hunt until Oct 5th in PA.

    Hunt hard guys/gals...this stuff is fun!

    Glad to see everyone out there hunting... My season starts Saturday. I won't go out in the morning but will give it a go for the evening hunt.

    Nice that you got yourself a new bow VA, hope it treats you well.

    Good luck everyone!

    Just read another article of a man who died after falling from a treestand near me. Please folks be safe and wear your safety harness!

    I have a tree spider micro harness and my girlfriend has a HSS ultra lite we use linesmen belts going up and down, we are never not connected to the tree. I bought my sister her harness for her birthday this year.

    Just remember there are people that love you at home so be smart and wear your harness!

    Sorry for this rant I'm just getting tired of reading articles like that

    Been raining all day here but just now stopped. I m going out now for tonight ants tomorrow am. The wind blew hard all day and is now settling down. Hopefully the deer are hungry and they will get up and eat. That's my thinking anyway.

    It's been raining all day here as well hopefully the deer will be moving now that it has pretty much stopped. I am not in my favorite stand ever as I just popped my ground blind up in the field out back behind the house. Don't really expect much tonight but there is a slim chance one could come out. Hopefully they are not too far out of range. Guess you can't shoot them if your not out hunting.
