A Beautiful Opening Day...and check out these rubs!!
« on: October 16, 2010, 02:09:00 PM »
My goodness it felt good to be deer hunting again! I've been at this for 33 years it just keeps getting better and better. Like a kid at Christmas all over again! I guess I'll never understand folks that "loose the urge",or have "no desire to hunt this year"....not me!

Great morning(saw three small bucks), but a bit on the windy side. Great morning to try out my new Sitka Stratus gear. Cut the wind like a sharp knife just like it's supposed to...another winner for Sitka!!

Now check out what I found on my way out!

Every one of these trees had scars from being rubbed at least one time in prior years. A couple had two years worth of scars and a new rub on them!  Very impressive!!

Nice rubs!  I was out this past week as well. It seems to me there were quite a few fresh rubs that have appeared in the last week or so.

So far no shots, so no pictures to show. Neighbor's dogs and erratic winds to blame. At least thats my story.
