Had a 120 ish 8pt trot thru. He has been all over this property this week. Horn dog is going to run himself to death. He trotted by 40-60yds out. Combine is working the rest of the corn to my west. Too bad I only get another hour in the tree. Need to meet a guy to rent out a house then take my Mom to Bellefountaine. Oh well. 2hr sit is better than none. Plus I'm pulling 3 cards on the way out! Woohoo!

This should be a fantastic weekend! Nice weather today with cold front rolling in... yeah, that's bad for deer.

Phil, sounds like a good sit albeit shorter than you'd like!

Yessir Brock. Hard to complain if you are at least seeing some young and horny bucks wandering around lost. Might get an evening hunt in Sunday. Tonight is out. Tomorrow is out. I can't kill them if I'm not hunting. I'll be living thru your updates gentlemen! Best of luck to you all. Be safe.

Super windy when I got to the stand about an hour ago then everything went dead calm. Seen a few smaller bucks following last night.

Went out around 1030 until 4:30, set up a ground blind and I picked a good area as rubs 30 yards in front of it and 2 scrapes within 40 yards of it.... Next week should start some all day sits and I’ll rotate between this and a ladder stand I have set up....

What a wet windy evening. I did manage to see five tonight. Two of which were bucks and came into range, just nothing big. My first time back out since the opener, sure felt nice. Good luck this weekend all, should be some moving with this front.

I’m dying to get out tomorrow right after the rain ends but it’s just not in the cards as I’m obligated to attend a tailgate at The Shoe. Oh well, there are worse places to be lol. I’ll be in the stand predawn on Sunday though!
