    Tomorrow morning is opening day! I work nights and hopefully I'll be off by midnight. I got up early in the hopes of being able to get in bed as soon as I get home. My sight is dialed in for broadheads. Field points are a little off but I can deal with it. They are grouping well. I'm READY! 20200925_120304.jpg

    Had a doe and a small 6 pt under my stand this morning. The only shot she offered was at two yards straight down. The buck stopped broadside at 15 yards. Back in a different stand this afternoon. Just observing unless my target buck shows up. Have to watch my grandson ride sheep at the rodeo at 8:00. 20200926_155325.jpg

    Well intended to hunt this afternoon & tomorrow...now on emergency trip to camper to check for damage after hellacious hail storm...apparently had 1 1/2-2 inch pieces of hail! Fingers crossed no damage or minor so can at least sleep inside once we get there...ive been up since 4 AM working a fundraiser marathon...even caffeine wont keep me going much longer! LOL

    Saw 6 does and fawns and a small buck this morning. All out of range. Back at this afternoon ahead of the rain.

    I got a reprieve it seems 2 new zones were added this year so I will be able to start my season on October 1. I will be hunting in an unfamiliar management area but at least I will be hunting, hurray.

    I only saw small 6 pt this afternoon. Hunted ahead of a cold front and was hoping for more action. It probably didn't help that the landowner was bailing hay. No big deal. Our archery season last unit February 28 in Arkansas. He finished bailing about an hour and a half before dark, so figured there was a chance. The wind was calm before the cold front moved in at 6:45. Went from light wind from the west to blowing 40 mph in a matter of seconds. I thought it was going to blow the top out of my tree. Got to the house just before it started pouring rain.

    Those are really nice bucks, best of luck, get them before they realize that hunting season is open.

    Good looking bucks Junior! Wishing everyone good luck for October 1st opener. I won't have another chance to hunt until Sunday. This job of mine gets in the way of hunting.

    I'm working Saturday but I really don't like getting wet. Wind should be perfect Sunday to hunt my target buck. Screenshot_20200930-205952.jpg

    Hey guys! Have a nice cold front coming through so I'm planning on my first hunt tomorrow afternoon. Excited to get out there and hopefully grab a few cards to see what's still hanging around. Goodluck to everybody who's opening day is today!
