You and everyone else, bud.

Shot a real nice doe last night. The 15 yard chip shot was too good to pass up. Sevr broadhead did quite the number on her. Got the kids to school this morning and now I’m in for another midday sit. Should be some deer moving but so far all I’ve seen is a squirrel in my tree.

I spent all morning and midday catching up on some chores. I’m not a fan of this stiff W wind, but with this cloud cover it feels like it could be a good afternoon for deer movement. I’m sitting 35 yards off of a greens food plot. Let’s see what happens.

My dad (an electrician) explained to me one time that ground-up is actually the way they’re supposed to be. If a plug starts to sag due to gravity or some other reason, the ground terminal will be exposed instead of the “hot” terminal. Basically, with the ground hole up, there’s a lower risk...

Congrats! Great buck!

The biggest deer in my section was locked down with a doe this morning. Bedded with her in an open wheat field.

Been in the tree since 9:00 am. Another windburn generating day. Got the buck decoy 25 yards in front of me with the wind directly in my face. I can only sit until about 3:00 today. Hopefully there’s a buck somewhere getting bored that wants to pick a fight.

I have been that way a time or two before… but not this time. lol. I was ready to eat my left arm by the end of it.

Small fork horn and a 2 year old 8 pointer showed up at last light. Pretty forgettable day in the woods…. 8 hours on stand, and mostly just windburn to show for it. Lol

How bout a little motivation for all you post-Strouds fatasses. lol. Couple of weeks ago I notice I was in a really bad eating routine… Feeling like total crap… aches, pains, bloating, poor sleep, etc. It has been a while since my last one, so I started in on a fast to hit that reset button...

I like this wind direction… but the velocity is a killer. I’ve seen no midday movement so far. Really hoping it lays down a bit this evening and the deer movement picks up.

Here where I live, this last week of October always seems to be one of the best times to be in the woods. Very consistent for me anyway. I think the cool temps we’re experiencing lately are really kicking things into gear also.

Seeking and chasing is in full swing in northern Ohio. I know of several big deer that have died in the past 3-5 days. Just saw a big 5-6 year old buck chasing does this morning.

I’ve been set up since 10:30. A little later than I planned but it’s all good. Riding this out until dark. Saw my #1 target buck about 1/4 mile away this morning when I ran the kids to school. He was chasing does in the open field. Not expecting much tonight but here goes nothing.

It’s all good. None of this matters until someone has their hands on those antlers anyway.
