Waiting for daylight. This is my Thanksgiving sitting in the deer blind going to hunt till dark.
Wish me luck, with the dearth of daytime deer activity I am hopeful an adult deer walks ny.
If it’s brown it’s down😉!

Best of luck and I am envious. This is my 1st Thanksgiving not deer hunting in over 20 years, the crud has a good hold on me this week.

Good luck, Mark!
I'm in a tree stand up here. No rain, but the wind is threatening to pick up and it seems like daylight is forever in coming.

Good luck to you Scott! I’ve been a treestand guy for decades. This box blind stuff is different. It’s taking some getting used to. Today it’s a blessing. I get to stay dry. Mostly it’s the equipment staying dry that’s the plus. That and my glasses stay clear and unspotted

Obviously the Michigan "kill em all" programs are working.
I hope to get out for another day, but not much to get enthused about.
Maybe the Dec hunts will be of more interest. Like maybe some snow and fewer baiters.
Good luck to all setting out there.

Great time of the year to hunt. We hunted Idaho Whitetails for quite a few years this time of the year. We did well. Good luck and Happy Thanksgiving.

There is actually a chance of rain here later today. Believe it when I see it. Been three months since we had any rain.

Where about is this rain, please?
He will come through between 10 and 2 if the area is hunted much, or at last light crossing country between where does feed and bed looking for a group with an estrous doe.
Even the old does have estrous cycles.
Good luck.

Wish me luck, with the dearth of daytime deer activity I am hopeful an adult deer walks ny.
If it’s brown it’s down😉! Good luck!

I'm in a tree stand up here. No rain, but the wind is threatening to pick up and it seems like daylight is forever in coming. How cold? Rather warm this morning, Jag. Upper 30's. Yesterday morning was in the low 20's and lakes were starting to freeze over. Temp feels to be dropping now along with an increasing cold breeze.
4 out of 5 Great Lakes prefer Michigan.
