I'm in the blind with Mallory. She says nothing is safe tonight
Atta girl, get it done!
Good luck all. I'm high up in the climber. Let's see what happens.

Well that’s a wrap. Yes, deer hunting is stupid. Froze my ass off today. Unbelievable I saw 28 deer work through this bedding area today and not one of them was the buck that I had on camera in there 2 days ago. That’s hunting. Back to the stick and string.
Well shit. I messed up. my kid wants nothing to do with gun hunting deer. He got knocked on his ass sitting like a catcher shooting a .44mag high end reloads the day before youth. I wasnt watching close enough as he wasnt holding the gun tight. Its been like pulling teeth to get him out. A neighbor called and said a big buck ran into our place just before we were going to head out tonight. he said he didnt want to go anymore and wanted to watch football. I get it i was gun shy at his age as well. A year will make a big difference. So the .22 and bushey tails will have to work for now. Looked beautiful out there tonight.
1 small yearling was around us for the last hour. Nothing else showed up.
I am pretty certain that this is the first gun week that I haven't fired a shot since 1993...
22 miles worth of walking this week. 10 deer added too the DNR #’s. I’m ready too head back too warmer weather and a few cold ones 
All in all a pretty good gun week for us. Most everyone had some trigger time, even if they didn’t get anything out of it. Lots of good times, good conversations and got too hang out with friends. Win, win!
Won’t be up for bonus weekend but will be for muzzle loader season!

Maybe it was needed as a good grounding and reminder. Because this was also the first one without my old man. Enjoy those memories gents. I did realize why we always hunted different ridges and areas. It had nothing to do with doubling our odds...had everything to do with being a kid that can't sit the F still! Lol. Bonus gun we might be trying to double our odds

Giles, I know how you feel. The first couple for me was hard. To the point it took the enjoyment out of it. Now I go the opening day no matter what. It's the memories we made aand being in that treestand helps bring them back.
My 11 year old daughter bagged her first deer tonight. I’m fairly certain that I’ve never been that nervous in all of my years of hunting. Hunting season sure hits different when you experience it with your kids.

14 deer for the group this week. A mix bag of does and bucks. I shot a big ole nanny on Tuesday. She weighed in at 146.5 lbs. As of this morning she was still leading the big doe contest at the processor.
