What is your opening day plan?

[gregg dudley]

Bow season starts September 18.  I will make my first sit on the fringe of my hunting area overlooking some trails that lead to primary feed areas.  I'll pick the spot based on the wind.

Season opens this weekend here in Kentucky. However, I probably won’t start hunting until October after it cools off some. Maybe some of the neighbors will spook all of the deer over into my woods by then.

I'll make my plans on the fly. Might even sleep in.  I don't have any target deer. Just looking to fill the freezer this year. It's getting pretty low.

Like Charlie, I'm nearly out of venison so not picky to start out!

HUNT

If it don't cool off by 40-50 degrees, I'm sittin' in the AC.

Sleep in, Charlie..... "after breakfast" Remember...??

I have a little spot at the NGT club and will be in my tree stand. Looking for the 6pt that I missed last year.

Well NY put in a anterless season for some WMU's and Long island is one of them so I usually get my spots ready in September so I'll probably set up some stands and hunt one of them in the evening hoping to get lucky,

I’ll set up 12 to 15 yards from these Persimmons
And Grapes are dropping very close to the Persimmon
Need a Wind from the South
Very common early season

Season opens here on Sept 15. I’ll hunt when I can but I’m going to be spending quite a bit of time scouting. I got drawn for a hunt in a county park for the month of November. Need to do a lot of checking it out. I’m allowed 3 deer but first one has to be a doe.

Oct 1 is a Friday... I'm working nights 10 hrs from 9 pm to 7am, Fri and Sat night same thing..... My opening day will probably be around the 15th or so.... My plan is to stick a deer with an arrow.

Opening Day, and all of deer season for that matter is off of the table this year.  A few minutes ago, I was just notified by my cousin that EHD is rampant in my area.  A lot of dead deer within a 2 mile radius of my place.  The state is asking everyone to not hunt in affected areas this year.  So bummed, but just have to let nature runs her course.

If I wait till it cools off in Florida it could be December. Then the gunners are out.
Lots of water ( cooler and in woods ) lots of Therma cells and change of clothes when they get too soggy from rain or sweat. Florida bow hunting ain't for light weights. I'll prolly sweat off a few needed pounds in the process of it all.

Opening day is Sept 18th her but I'll be out Antelope hunting. When I get back if I have a south wind I'll be hoping to catch a catch the nice 10 pt going by my north stand, the acorns are dropping there. Always playing the wind!

[Eecho]

Up in the tree stand over looking crossing into 100 acre bean field. Swatting away mosquitoes

October 1!  Can’t wait

[TooManyHobbies]

Today was opening day. So I did something I've never done before. I went goose hunting. Two flew over and went 100 yards away in green field, 40 minutes later a solo cupped and landed in the water, 10 yards from my hide in the cattails. I slowly drew my recurve, and totally shanked the shot. Missed about two inches in front of his breast. I don't think I anchored. I think it's the first opening day shot I've ever taken, and definitely the first bow shot I've ever taken at a goose.

I will keep an eye on the wind. I only hunt my stands when the wind is perfect, otherwise I will wait.

[woodchucker]

Take a ride up the mountain... (Got a new Ranger side x side, legs ain't what they used to be...)

Find a place to sit..... Maybe take a nap...?? (Hey, I'm old lol)
