First set of antlers just showed up at the #1 PLB, that's on the ground now. He's in search of the three that came through moments earlier.
A huge bodied spike.

I doubt you have endured some of the ridiculousness that I have over the years. 2009 alone should be a tragic comedy movie itself. Hang in there, you will be alright.At what point do you just sell all your shit and take up golf? Not asking for a friend, asking for myself

Long story short, almost had an opportunity at a very old buck, never took the last two steps I needed him to per usual, had other plans and went the other way. About 8:30 had a near shooter buck cross at 20 yds. 9:10 a shooter appears on the far side of the field and went into the bedding area, bumped two does toward me in the field then he pushed them back into the thicket. Hopefully they lead him here, or he gets bored and wanders over to the food plot to scent check. Have a Dr Appt at 2, gonna sit till noon if the actiOn persists.

That’s part of the game. Enjoy the moment. Trust me, it might be years before you have another that close. I had a run of great fortune and then it dried up. It’s been a long time since I put my tag on a trophy in Ohio. Still enjoy every encounter with every deer though.
I'm working on a church in Indiana this am, got the shit scared out of me with a rifle shot on a creek just behind us. 4 shots fired close a few off in the distance.
Had to get down earlier this morning because ole 'Mother Nature' wasn't done yet with her 'air dryer'. Details within the 'scrape pic' thread. Hyper link below.

I'll get back out later this afternoon.

Saw another 6 or 8 this morning. Couple 3yr olds, one good one, one dink, and rest does. Chasing and seeking, pretty good morning till the wind picked up and I couldn't hear a thing. Back after it in the morning.
Settled back in for the remainder of the day at my 'Southern CRP Stand' that is neatly tucked at the bottom of the South ridge, just off the SE corner of the lower CRP field, just yards to the North. Another bigger cut down CRP field further to the SE, just on the other side of a hedge row of honeysuckles and a small stream.
This is the first sit in this stand this season. I chose it due to the stiff West wind we are receiving today. It'll be a crosswind out into the CRP field, where many of the deer bed during the day, or just on the opposite side of it, near my 'Northern CRP Stand, which is right next to that super thick area, where much of the bigger bucks bed and hide.
(Left to right, top to bottom. View from the stand today, looking NE, NW, W & SW. Wind is mild below the top of this ridge and it's straight in my face.)
Good luck to whomever is hunting this afternoon/evening!

Only two doe in a distant field so far today in this all day sit. Pretty uneventful sit but sunny and good views.

I'm on the county line with Crawford Co and its like a switch was flipped. Saw tons of deer everyday and today squat.
I am in a ground blind behind the house. Not allowed to climb ladders or get in a tree yet. Neighbor kid killed one of the big boys last week. We will see what happens.
