    Stayed put until 11am, nothing happening. We pulled our stands, tonight is our last night ( though well get a short hunt in the morning ). It is 72F and 30mph south winds. I just finished a 2 mile scouting loop. Found another couple spots I liked, but only jumped 2 deer. I've come...

    Really slow last night. 552pm i had 3 deer work through "the spot". End of legal is 559pm. This morning, legal light was 646am. I had at least one deer in "the spot" at 652am. Should I have moved my treestand? The data now indicates yes, as all deer have been in this spot. It's not doing me...

    This morning was nice. It was 40F, but felt like 30F. A gentle breeze was blowing. A flock of turkeys woke up around 7am. They continued announcing their presence throughout the morning, even with a gobble here and there. Twice, I heard a series of grunts behind me. Always from the same spot...

    418pm I heard rustling behind me. After 15 minutes of looking, I figured it must be an armadillo. 530pm I was having visions of pulling up stakes and trying a different area. 535pm I heard rustling in a similar area, but quickly realized this was no armadillo. Omg deer moving in daylight-ish...

    I set up a new stand location across the cattails. Obviously people are accessing back here unlike my original hope, but I don't have a great lead atm. Due to the nature of the tree, I'm quite a bit higher than normal. The brush in the area is only 8-10ft tall, so I can see a LONG ways. There...

    I had an encounter with a doe about an hour ago. She looped around me at 40 yards, never giving a shot. I crept over to her trail in case a buck followed but nada. Found stand number 3 for the day. Climber up just to check the view. Seems more set up for rifle as there is little cover but there...

    Feeling discouraged. No movement this morning. Do I really want a stand here? Found an active climber on the parallel trail ~120 yards from where I was going to set up. Also found an abandoned ladder stand further. Also forgot to restock my jerky!

    Well, that other hunter was about 400 yards past me, hunting the same sign. Neither of us saw anything. I pulled the stand. My dad had two other hunters walk by him, and no deer. Hope tomorrow is better!

    Dad had a small buck work past him just out of range this morning. I'm in my stand for the evening, but I have mixed feelings on it. There is a new truck parked here. They could have gone any direction, but despite being 400 yards in, there are fresh boot tracks in the creek just 50 yards from...

    Finally some action! I spotted a deer working it's way NE, 100 yards to the south of me. I tried to get in position to intercept but it never showed. While waiting, I started hearing grunting to the East, moving south. I made a mock scrape and grunted, and 5 minutes later here he comes. He held...

    Ninjas another 150 yards or so. Scrapes, trails, rubs and scat. Where are the deer??

    Pretty happy with my plan this morning. I had to cross about 300 yards of 8ft tall cattails to get in here. Heard deer moving in the dark and there is a real nice trail in front of me.

    Just climbed up for the afternoon. Wind is very inconsistent, making me nervous. It's supposed to be variations of south all week, but I'm getting gusts from the north. Its 72 degrees, going to be like that all week as well. Who cooks for you is serenading :D

    Scouted a couple miles of transitions but the best looking sign was where I was this morning. Took a drive and hunted in over near where I had my stand last year and boom, about 100 yards deeper in, 4 fresh scrapes in a row. I will keep exploring, but I hung my stand over the trail. It's...

    Stayed there for 90 minutes, decided if something was there I would have seen or heard it. I want to scout more but it's warming fast, going to drop my jacket and seat. Took a different route the 250 yards back to the truck. Still tons of sign. Jumped a deer between me and the truck. Seriously...

    With the volume of hunters ( seen plates from New Mexico, Colorado, Louisiana, Georgia and Indiana), this morning I decided to hit a spot that is easily overlooked. It feels entirely too close to the road, but it is full of honey locusts. There was an incredible amount of sign here last year and...
