Less than pleased with the Go Pro for filming hunts. Deer have to be super close to even show up and in low light its not good. Had a deer at 10 yds yesterday afternoon at dusk but video is too dark to see
This Video is from yesterday morning with a doe less tha 10 yards from my stand(I am 30' up though)
I will play with the Go Pro a bit more but so far it's not the best for a hunting video camera(fishing on my boat it's the best)

That stand is situated part way up a ridge,if I'm not that high up I would be at eye level with deer crossing on the ridge

It really is a good time, been years since I did it. I trained my first lab on a preserve in Shelby years ago. My current dog learned on roadkill.

In my stand calm morning 44 degrees Don't have great hopes for this spot as the food just isn't here this year, no apples on the trees for some reason Still a bit too early yet but I figured I was up and would sit for a while Didn't want to hunt my other 2 properties cause wind is wrong We shall see....

Cooler temps will help, hang in there.
I only do the ground now, heights don't work for me the older I get.
My slick tricks did the job Wednesday afternoon downstate just as the temps dipped to near 40.
Good hunting Dan.

Head in out shortly, I have a good wind for another property this morning, it's 32 degrees and we have our 1st hard frost this season so should be a good morning for deer movement...
