    Had an unknown buck grunting at a doe and fawn right at last light. Heard a fawn bleat then jumping around. 4-5 grunts. Never showed themselves but I saw a doe and fawn in the field when I was walking out.

    I might try getting out after I drop my son off at school in the morning but I hate walking in at 745ish. If I do I will sit till 10 or so.

    I still can’t get over how many times that nanny doe blew at me tonight and didn’t blast out of there. Easily over 50 times.

    I'll be headed up tonight after daycare trunk or treat for 9 days of hunting! The weather looks great, bucks have been on their feet, the best time of the year is here! Tomorrow I will have to get a stand hung somewhere for the consistent east winds we have coming this week, but that shouldn't be an issue. Freezer is looking empty, hoping to at least come out of the week with a doe.

    I hate SE winds. Went on the ground tonight on the corn that was combined today. Saw a lot of deer just wasn’t in the right spot.

    If I finish helping my mom with her yard work early enough I’ll grab my XOP and set up where they came out. Otherwise I’ll be on the ground again closer to where the deer were coming out tonight.

    My plan is to go where I have been seeing all the sign in the morning. I need to check those 2 cameras to see if they picked up whoever is in there.

    Didn’t have any action this morning, but went back out for a midday sit and not 15 minutes after getting into my stand I had a real nice 2.5 year old 8 pointer come out. He gave me multiple shots at 25 yards, but I decided to let him walk…really hoping he sticks around and gives one of my boys a shot yet this year.

    Didn’t make it out tonight. Had some beers with my mom and her friends to celebrate her retirement. Final day of work was yesterday at 67 years old. Gray cloud over the whole thing because she just found out she most likely has COPD (hasn’t smoked in 15+ years).

    Always something in life. Just keep hammering.

    Good luck everyone!
