Seen one small 4 pt, he passed by at roughly 25 yds around 3:30. 4pm I had a doe with 2 yearlings sneak in and bed down maybe 35 yds. They stayed there until 5:45 then moved off...then I sneaked out.

Eased past a scrape, dressed up a few branches with James Valley, then peed in the scrape. See what tomorrow brings. Should be around 20 degrees in the morning. With the dry leaves, the bushy tails drove me nuts tonite. They were all over the place!

Seen one small buck chasing a doe. The doe popped out in the field I was setting on the edge of about 15 yards, but no shot. Right before last light saw a nice ten point about 35 yards through the brush. Lots of chasing and grunting. Overall exciting nite! Looking forward to the rest of the season.

Good hunting, Jason

I saw the pics earlier, Ken.  Back cover is pretty good, but I like more in front.  Fill it in heavy down low to keep leg and hand movement covered, a big help when positioning for a shot.  Get something for your hands and face and darkening your bow a bit will help a bunch.  It definitely is more exciting on the ground.  Good Luck!
