Oh yeah, forgot to mention I was gonna lay the smack down on a doe last night and got a coughing attack and spooked her away before she came out of the brush...grrrr
 
3 does and a small 8 so far. I'm under dressed and have a bunch of shit to do today. May not last long this morning. Off the next 2 days and have the weekend, then I'm done for a while.
 
Finally got service on the ridge. Here is my buddies buck, decent 8 that musta been scrappy. Wind is still pissin me off!

Wind is trying to pick up here. I'm perplexed on why I'm not seeing any normal doe movement. It's not like I'm having to walk into the woods & the deer becoming aware. Oh well , there's always this evening. I'm gonna quit & go enjoy the day. I'm still off tomorrow anyhow. Good luck to those staying put !
 
Saw a small 8 and a doe. Got down early to go see a buddy's deer. He's a lurker on here so I won't talk bad about him calling me in the middle of my boring hunt! :)
 
I froze out. That and the phone call asking for permission to proceed with $1K in repairs on the wife's ride was enough to piss me off to the point of being done!

Need I remind you ? that your car can break down anytime all thru 12 months, but the rut only comes once a year?

(Said the jealous, desk-bound guy living vicariously thru an internet hunting thread...)
 
I had a bunch to get done anyways, that was just the boot in the ass to get me out. Want to take advantage of the nice day to clean up around the house before winter hit.

No, fingers crossed the tranny will last us until we sell it. Water pump, rear brakes and rotors, both front ball joint and both sway bar links. I'm no mechanic, so I don't work on my own vehicles. The local guy wouldn't do the water pump, so it is at the dealer. If I hadn't had it at the local guy for a day and the dealer for 2, I might buy the parts and get help to do it. I just want it done and done today. One of those things where you bend over, grab your ankles, grin and bare it...
 
He killed a 130" 9, nice deer. Just before I arrived at his farm I saw an absolute dandy taking a stroll across a hay field! Probably 160 or better. I'm still thinking tomorrow is going to be awesome, Thursday should be even better for activity. But, we'll all have to get up early to find out for sure!
