7 does between 15 and 25 yards at first light. An 8th deer forty minutew later at 45 yards. Too thick to see what it was or went.
Wish I could shoot does on this property...hunting til ten or so.

Going after work at 3:00. Suburban hunting but it will have to suffice. Pulled a nice 8 out of the road where it died yesterday after he was shot when he was following a doe.The rut is in the air if only a bit.

Ended up seeing 13 today. Im sure 3 or 4 were duplicates though. All does or yearlings, the one I saw alone in the brush was probably a buck, but I couldn't tell.
Wind kept flipping on me all morning. Steady out of the west, then a few minutes worth of due east. Hate when that happens.
Heard some turkeys too, but never saw them.

I will be out there tomorrow am. Good luck guys.

saw one this morning but she had me pegged AGAIN, finally took that stand down as it is out in the open and replaced it with another better hidden.

Thanks guy's, I went out this morning and saw squat, it's pretty hot here but I'll give the pm a try. Tomorrow I'm setting traps so I'll be hunting the pm only after that.

Why is Joe tagged out?? He has the either or tag and he can use his other tag during bow season, he does not have to wait for gun. Shawn

Good for for you Joe. Nothing wrong with a youngster wanting to extend his season.

Just got back a little while ago, didn't see any deer this afternoon, did see a woodcock and a rabbit. Really pretty quiet in the woods.

No deer this after noon, I have 46 hours in my stands so far but the best is yet to come.
