Seen lots of doe. 4 point, 6 point and a great encounter with a 120" 8 that Kody almost got a crack at.
Details coming in my journal in a little bit.

... I may have a hard time sleeping tonight.
Ive been runnim on 3 hours sleep all day. Bed sounding real nice
Wish you were right Big H. Well, maybe you were but they escaped to the south or another section of woods out of sight. Never saw a deer. He finished up with 40min daylight left. Thought for sure when the deer heard the semi and combine rolling down the road there would be some does start easing back in. Nada. Had a coon come thru was all. Never busted anything on my way out either. Sucky.
Hitting another farm down the road in the morning. It is now THE ONLY standing corn within probably 2 miles. Weird wind in the morning. ENE. Allows me to slide into a stand close to a bedding thicket, corn, some clover, a pond, the creek, and some overgrown CRP ground. Yep. This stand has it all. Should be an amazing rut stand. Wouldn't be hunting it if not for this wind. Otherwise we use it as an all day rut stand, open the scent bottle, and come in with our best scent control available.

Got to my hunting property this evening to only find there was yet another new hunter that decided to show up. This is getting old real quick. That makes at least 4 other guys plus me and Dante hunting this area plus 2 other guys that use this property to access their stands on the neighboring property. This is the 3rd year in a row this crap has gone on. DONE with it all. Waiting for coon season and I will run every fuggin deer on these properties off. Not going in with the .22, nope, bringing in the 12ga to play. Come on Nov. 10th
Forgot to mention my cam card pull. Showed the renter running his fuggin lawn tractor and trailer all over the place as well as a full size pickup truck in there doing the same. I give...really I do.

I just got home from work & I'm in my skivies. Gonna give the wife a slap & hit the sack. I just KNOW brown will be down TOOmorrow. :smiley_clap:
Damn Adam!!! I really hate hearing this shit!!! I firmly believe if you and Dave had this prop all to yourselves you both would be wacking and stacking not to mention knocking down a good buck as well. This has to be very very frustrating! I'm pissed for you both! Hope it gets better...dang!

I'm going in on thursday in the rain and pulling my stands outa there. All but that creaky noisy buddy stand. If these new guys wanna show up at prime time and screw the whole place up, at least they won't be doing it out of mh stand. They can sit in that buddy stand if they want, first move they make when a deer comes in that things gonna make so much noise that deer will be gone in a heartbeat. I'll pull that one in the spring and fix it up.
Looks like public from here out.

Sorry to hear it Dave and Adam. Your situation sounds like it really sucks.
Hope you got a full night's rest Brock. Only up 2-3x myself last night. Not as bad as other nights. Up and at it though. Ready to shower, smoke up, and creep into a stand. Need to be in plenty early today given the stand I am hunting.

I TOO am up. I'm about to smoke up in a bit & walk out. I'll be hunting from the ground & I really anticipate deer to be coming from different directions.... but from one direction in particular where they will be blindsided. I wanna get my freezer meat first, but who knows ! Good luck !

810 had a Nice 8pt come thru as I am hoping to see a mature deer work the area. He was an 8pt and probably only yr and a half. Filmed him. Now watching squirrel acrobatics. Black squirrel getting chased off by some greys.
