Those all day sits can be very productive. Sometimes nice just to sit in a tree and watch the world go by. Best of luck to you 10gaugemag. My last 5 out of 6 or 6 out of 7 bucks have been killed between 10:30sh and 2:30sh. No reason to leave the woods, all you do is spread scent and can't kill em from the truck or couch.

I just popped positive for Covid. Looks like I'm gonna miss the general firearms season. That really pisses me off and on top of that I'm sick as hell to boot.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

I was Covid positive right before our rifle opener last year. I thought I was going to have to get better to die. By the time opening morning rolled around, I felt only moderately better...so I decide to go climb in a tree.
Definitely not one of my better life choices.

Honestly right now I don't have enough strength to even consider going. I have already killed a big doe with my bow and will have the second half of bow season ahead to try for a buck. We have a firearms antlerless season ahead and also the alternative/muzzleloader season ahead. I'm trying to focus on getting better it it has been fairly rough so far.

Leaving for my lease in Vernon Co tomorrow morning at 5:00
Plan to sit all day until I either notch a tag or eat tag soup. Last two I killed up there one was at 11:00 and the other at 11:30 on two consecutive year opening days. Haven't seen anything in the last two seasons that was a shooter. Hope that changes this trip.
Everyone be safe traveling and hope ya all fill a tag

Hit some major traffic issues east of Indianapolis on 70. Lost qn hour and a half by the time we got off 70 went south to 40 and continued west. Now we are hitting town traffic. Oh well we are moving again!
I agree with the ait all day theory.
