    ok guys serious countdown mode now.
    clothes are washed, descented, stored in bags and tubs.
    gear is all tuned up, cleaned, descented and ready.
    11 days and I am betting we will be on the board again.
    I wonder if the deer are as excited as I am :biggun:

    Well fellas, Sunday night I had everything ready...clothes washed, bow ready, truck gassed up, ready to roll. Morning was going to be perfect...great wind for the perfect stand. But my little baby had different plans and gave me the best opening day I have had in 17 years of hunting!!!

    Eliza Burke Cunningham was born on opening day of deer season at 12:27. 6lbs 3oz and 19"s long. She already has me wrapped around her finger!

    Again, for some reason, I can't seem to post photos on here but I will figure it out soon enough...

    And the poetic justice of missing opening day was when we brought her home today...had a tree rat in my back yard and I just couldn't resist it...pinwheeled her at 27 yards and felt pretty good about myself...
