Well it November 23 and I'm still after them. I would say I have an easy 150 hours on stand. I have hunted every Friday Saturday and Sunday since the end of October. And I hunted a lot before October as well. The rut is still kicking and I'm still having encounters with cruising and chasing bucks. They have either been just a hair to small or a hair to far. There are no gauruntees in what we do but every minute that I'm in a tree my odds increase. I've got 6 does feeding around me right now. Hopefully big boy comes to check them out.
