I made the decision this morning to not take all of next week off. But despite that decision, I'm still entering my balls to the wall period of hunting. Since I'll be hunting so much over the next three weeks, I wanted to combine all my experiences in one locale. (I like digging this shit up in June when I'm starting to jones for some seat time!) Lots of pictures of stand set-ups and general deer season memories to come. Hopefully, some big buck pics as well!!!
Tomorrow will be my first all day sit of the year. I'm heading to tree that sits on the edge of a shelf adjacent to a thick creek bottom to the south, and an overgrown field to the north. Just above the that field, are cut beans. I can see a lot of ground from this spot, plus I'm hunting a nice funnel. I'm not sold that it is the right tree to kill from, but it will give me a great vantage point for the day. Wayne (rgecko23) will be hunting the platform blind in Paradise. He should have a great sit. If he doesn't see deer, there are no deer!!!
Sunday morning is still reliant on how the fish fry goes Saturday night! By lunch time Sunday, I'll be walking the creek to do some quick scouting. Sunday will be a hang/hunt spot where I will leave the Millennium/LW set-up for an all day sit Monday. Tuesday will also be an all-dayer in a location that will depend on the wind. I'll go back to work Wednesday and Thursday. Then it'll be into the next stretch of Friday the 12th through Sunday. That leaves me three days of vacation. (Two for bowhunting, one for gun season opener.) Jimmy and Hoytmania (Steve) will be down next weekend. I'll probably take the 19th off and hunt all of youth season. Then I'll be off from the 25th through the 29th. Lots of seat time ahead!!!
