Not really. Been in the stand ten minutes this afternoon. Two year old with half his rack missing.

Lightning and thunder rolled in quick. Decided I’d let the deer have this one and headed back to truck. Not worth sitting in lighting for me.
Does and fawns feeding 100 yds out. They're out early!

Just finished hailing rain.
Decided 'TOO' head out and try to dodge the rain drops the last hour in a half.
I haven't hunted this set since the opener weekend.
We'll see what happens here shortly.
I have a huge fresh tree rub straight in front of me in my first window, 25 yards away, and two huge fresh scrapes along the wooded field edge, one just on my left and the other just 'TOO' my right.
Oh-boy!!!
Things are about to break loose around here real soon

First sit of the year. Mama with twins and a small six so far. Soaked to the bones and getting cold.

Got my stand ready today for tomorrow’s hunt. Saw a couple good ones while out today. Thunder, lightening and hail just rolled through Vinton county about 30 minutes ago. It was pretty intense!

Boy, the weather got real shitty after my last post. I think we had 30-50 mph wind gust that I didn't expect to get tonight.
Anyhow, I didn't see anything, but I'd like to follow up of what I was talking about what I said earlier regarding the tree rub and huge scrape that I walked past and stayed well far away while heading to this stand this evening.
I did relocate my trail camera to one of those locations that you see below.
I did exchange the SD card from it first.
I did capture some decent deer activity in the area over the past month. That' how long it's been since I've hunted that set.
Tree rub that correlates with the top left middle photo of my previous post.
And then of course the huge scrape just to the right of the tree rub approximately 20 yards away.
Here's the beast that I think is the culprit of creating the both of them.
I forgot to mention that there was a huge deer bed underneath me 'TOO'.
You'll get to see that here shortly.

Damn bub, I text you to see if you were alright out there. Could’ve answered me.
Sorry Dave,
I had the phone in air plane mode and I didn't notice that I had any text.
I just now noticed it.
I appreciate your concern and obviously I made it out just fine, thanks!
Just had a weird feeling about those gust tonight. I’m glad it seems everyone made it out ok. Time for bed, night gents.
