They were moving tonight. Had a spike come thru at 40yrds around 5:15pm, then a decent 8 kept bumping a doe around deeper in the back of the woods just making a ruckus. Had 2 in the bean field when exiting the woods. Beautiful evening.

Sat all day and had 4 slick heads come in at last light. Too dark too see what they were but looked on the small side so moms were out getting Lucky I’d imagine

I had a giant at 70ish yards. He came into sight about 515 100 yards away ripping up a small birch tree (he's bedding north central part of the woods), he started tailing a doe hard wanted nothing to do with grunts or a snort wheeze. If he beds in the same spot and with the north wind tomorrow afternoon, I should have a good chance to close the distance. If i would have put my climber in the same area as years past he would be dead, I could kick myself, the way the deer move in this wood is so random.

I lost about $600 in setups to fallen trees in one year a few years back. A millennium 2 man and a muddy hang on. Just glad I wasn’t in either one at the time.
Nothing going on here in my neck of the woods. Skunked. After multiple years in a row of above average temps during my November vacation, I may start thinking about a more predictable hobby like synchronized swimming or something.

I’m starting to consider January vacations for Ohio deer hunting.

You guys are dedicated.... Boogie and Spencie let's do January so we don't sweat so bad in the process but I know a good farm where the beef cows produce every year. It'll never disappoint and will fill our freezers. I can even attach antlers to make it exotic
On that Veterans hunt this past weekend we were told, by the owner, that there was a black angus bull on the loose, that it had been on the loose for about a year. Shoot on sight, they wanted it dead. Even had pics of it in front of one of the blinds. No one saw it during the hunt to my knowledge.
I bet you were hoping like hell you saw that thing. I would be lol.
Dustin likes to milk the bulls. Hell yes he wanted to see it

Rough go getting in this morning. Saw the first buck that I would say is a no doubter while I was fencing yesterday. He was pushing a doe through a thicket. I have a stand in a funnel a couple hundred yards from where I saw them. So I headed for it this morning but made a wrong turn and ended up in the middle of a thicket. Just a little sweaty but I’m set up and ready to go. Good luck guys!

Two unknowns chasing does before sun up this morning. Had one hung up behind me grunting and snort wheezing about thirty minutes ago as well. Never came down. Absolutely gorgeous morning sit but have a feeling this evening something may catch an arrow. Cell cam showed big boy locked up with a doe last night. Going to make it an early morning sit and readjust a stand. Hopefully I can get this guy dead in the next couple of days!
NW wind is a no no for my spot. Ain’t going too risk blowing them out. Especially since no one has hunted this place so far. The rest of the week and falling temps should be better.

In again and what a wonderful feeling, cool air instead of balmy humidity in Nov.
Got a funnel/Pinchpoint going on here with a strip pond seperating two bedding areas...
...and that's the way its supposed to happen.. only bigger
Little guy passed on the ridge, stopped at the licking branch, became target fixated at 20ydrs... and went on his way unmolested.
