Good going, Drew!

I heard deliberate steps and got all ready . . . and watched two ruffed grouse walk past in the leaves.  

But that alone was worth the price of admission.

Did not see or hear any deer.  Harumph.

And some low-life swiped the lowest step in my tree!  I was thinking I was getting too old for this on the way up but When I climbed down I noted the hole where the step had been.  Luckily I had a spare at home.  Very odd.

I've had several does and fawns milling around me and one small 4pt.Haven't seen a bigger buck or large doe with no fawns that I want to shoot yet but sure is nice being out again.Good luck to all and nice job Drew.

Well another full day (half at one location half at another) still haven't seen a dee....ugh not really sure what's going on this is way out of the norm for these areas, I don't ever see a lot of deer but at least a couple    :(    :(    :(     Hope this year picks up some time. Oh well back at it tomorrow morning for only a half day.

Last week I only saw them walking around and this weekend is to warm!  It took 1.5 hours just to cool down from the walk in!  Hoping tonight shows a little action.

[Kopper1013]

Nothing again this morning, hoping things change next weekend    

Hot hot hot. Windy. Rain is coming but it's really dry in the woods-- no deer in the acorns and the apples are even neglected. Jumped a spike near a nearly-dry stream bed yesterday. Will water be the key this year?

Had some action on an oak ridge friday. I had 7 does feeding on acorns but couldn't get closer than 30 yards.  then saturday I saw 2 different young 8 pointers in an apple orchard but  they stayed far enough away to keep the hunt going.

[Stumpkiller]

Had a tight little racked six-point walk straight at me and pass nearly under my stand tonight.  Never really offered me a proper broadside and I let him be.  He was in sight off to my right (where I can't shoot because of the red maple branches I'm in) for 20 minutes and it was good to be in the presence or a deer, at least.  

First I've seen from the stand.
