Awesome pre nap adventure Brock!!! Reminds me of my youth a little when I lived at my grandmas for about 6 years! Some of the best memories I have during those times when chasing 4 legged deer in the daytime and the two legged dear in the nighttime and if I wasn't working I was napping to catch my second wind....:smiley_coolpeace:

Those were the days...............!

I did it again today too! Good clean fun, only saw two squirrels though. I did have an interesting cam check. I'll post a vid here in a bit, I'll just say I'm excited, a little. :)

I told you fellas he wasn't spooked, but I didn't even expect him back this quick with daylight. They have eaten 60 lbs in the last two days, just dumped another 100 or so. Another nice 8 showed up on some of the night vids, this guy showed him who the boss is. He was there at 6 this morning too, walked right up the hill where I suspect he's spending a lot of time. Tough wind for tonight, but Townzen said he would cover me at the shop tonight so we can hunt. We'll likely set up on the ground due to the wind being less than ideal for our treestand set up. BTW, if he would have come in on the trail he was entered here, Mason would have had a 12 yard shot! He was there for 20 minutes, and unlike the other day, he turned a dozen times and would have given Mason all kinds of opportunity. I think he's more comfortable, probably thinks Mason can't shoot... :)

Haha. I sent that pic to Mrex that day. I don't think he responded.... That was a fun day!

Ric, I will text you as soon as he shoots, if the opportunity presents itself. Looking at the forecast, I don't think we can stay out for the next few days! Gotta go tonight, after I check with Krista of course. I haven't told her that Townzen agreed to cover me yet... and btw, that's after he's already put in a full day at his real job! I suppose I'll owe him a pizza...small, just cheese, of course. :)

Oh man! That buck is asking for it and I hope Mason seals the deal tonight! How far do you think he's bedding from the apples?

Its just a guess, of course, but from the time I spent looking last year, I'm guessing less than 200 yards. The fact that I've got a video of him walking up the trail towards where I'd suspect him to hang up for the day, just makes me excited as heck to get in there tonight. I gotta believe he will come back down the drainage for apples, but he's a deer, and you just never know what they are gonna do. Mason will be home in less than an hour. He hasn't got a clue that we are going back in tonight, or that I've got so many vids of him over the last couple days. Poor kid doesn't think he's getting out again until Monday. He's gonna be thrilled to go, even if we see nothing. 100 bucks says he totes his xbow, and I hope he does!

I was hoping he would want redemption with his compound. Actually, I am sure he does. Hunting off the ground though. . . AND the fact he is 12. . . Ain't no shame in leaving that compound at home tonight. I don't care how he gets it done. Looking forward to seeing pics and reading about it. Keep me posted Brock so I can keep Garrett posted. Garrett looked sick when I showed him the video of the miss. lol
