They say everything happens for a reason. For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

Dan, how's the rut activity near you? It dropped off a cliff here the last 3 days.

Yup. I hear ya. I personally don’t hunt Sunday’s so it dont bother me but come any other day of the week I wanna be out and wind/weather isn’t right it kills me, but on the flip side I’ve got about 10-12 various hunting areas to go to so for the most part between all of them one of them will work on any given day. Pretty soon big boy is gonna get dumb and let himself get shot.
Good luck, Tom.
Im halfway through the thread. Hope youve already stuck him.

Swing and a miss on my buddies buck after 4.5 hrs of searching / following sign (did see a young 8 chasing a doe while doing so)...He drove back home in disgust. I hunting last night, got wet and saw does but will give it another try this afternoon.

Then remind me not to be a pussy when it's blowing 25-30 mph check out the buck in the back ground he has to be the one I saw twice last weekend,he is standing right near the bush I cut out to sit on the ground and hunt windy days ugh!
Then from other property the drop tine 6 pt again and an 8 pt that looks heavy but can't really gauge him

Yesterday morning was a slow go, 8 pt, a spike and a bunch of doe...did see a mature wide buck, but at 240 yds I thought it a bit of reach for my Hoyt
Also recovered a buck my buddy arrowed the night before. I'll try a different spot this afternoon.

That afternoon was a parade, spike, a 6 pt and a young 8 with a bunch of does...A nice sit but nothing to get excited about.
