Yeah, supposed to be a high of 62 Saturday. I got a big one chasing does along the bean field already.


I stopped by big box store last night to replace my recurve string.

Took the boys with the windfoil tested hairdo's some time to find it.

No price tag on the package.

They ran the UPC in their hand held, and it came back $0.02.

So I took both of the remaining...

Just got permission to hunt a new spot where a good buck has been spotted traveling through..I went there yesterday afternoon and by the time I Lone wolfed up a suitable tree I was soaked through and through with sweat to the point of shorting out one of my hearing aids...Never again, I will wait until the temps drop before attempting that again.

Temps are dropping but heavy rain and then very windy this weekend so looks like I'll be waiting a bit longer

Might be some snow flurries on the hill Saturday. Think I'll head up on Sunday for a couple of days.

The [bleep] crows are walking past this morning. Not even they want to deal with this wind. Done for today.

Fourth weekend of the season: two so far with high winds, one with remnants of a hurricane, and one rather damned hot.

Almost went this morning but rain and NW wind blowing 17 mph with higher wind forecast I took off my camo and walked back inside. Waited this long may as well wait for the right wind
Think I'll head out now and round up some camera cards

Heading out tomorrow. Supposed to be light SW winds so should be perfect for my chosen stand.

May do a bit of light rattling. A buck that went over 200" was killed yesterday not too far away. Looks like he has a bit of a swollen neck so I hope the pre-rut is kicking in. Should be good for the next 2-3 weeks.

I'm stoked now....the piebald I've watched and passed the previous 2 yrs is alive and looking good! No one has seen him since opening day if last yrs gun opening day.
Not the best pictures as he slipped out of the pines at 1:39 am and corner of frame but I can see the tell tale markings on his ass going down his hip
It's him!

Get'm, Dan!

Clear and cold here this morning. 37, moon overhead; Orion overhead. Still not happy about the wind, but less than yesterday. Could be a good one....

Dan I made a trip to camp to pull the water lines yesterday. thruway to 81N to exit 49 and back. 400mi round trip. I only saw 3 hit deer and only one was a little buck. They haven't even started chasing yet.


The chances they come, and the chances they go.
But the time. You don't get that back.

Saw two more small bucks and some does and yearlings. Nothing in range, and nothing shooter class anyway.

Damned nice day to be out, though.
