And in a hurricane! Nice going!

Be sure and ride the subway a few times

Another issue in my case is that kids grow up and move away WAY more than my generation, and even moreso, the Greatest Generation, where families often lived adjacent or on the same street with other family members.

Both my boys enjoy hunting, but with the distance apart, and young babies, it’s almost impossible to get them on even one trip per year. And I’m about to lose the 1000 acres I’ve hunted for almost free for 15 years when my cousin sells the place. The other places I hunt are too Spartan for most of the current generation, even though we did scouts and spent a fair amount of time in tents.

23* when I got in the stand, no wind

Was still half asleep and snapped to just to see horns disappearing into the woods. Big arse, assume I fricked up a good chance. Doe made a pass about 400 yards away. Hoping for a fat doe or one of the cull bucks with wonky racks.

Good luck guys, planning a long sit today.

Nearly a 4 hour sit this morning, only thing brown I saw was a squirrel. No deer of any sort on any cameras since before the hot weather spell. Very windy today, which I know they don’t like, but thought the cool would have them moving.

Hunting a blind this afternoon perfectly situated for wind direction that had some afternoon bucks as recently as Christmas Day. Can’t imagine I’ve disturbed them, only one vehicle on 1000 acres. Has me puzzled, this week has always been our best and it’s been awful thus far. Tomorrow may be a pack a sandwich and sit all day sort of day.

Tortured myself and watched until the end of the game last night. Decided then to sleep in with the crap conditions. 4 cell cameras had exactly 1 picture of a small doe, so seems as if I made the right call. Will likely try this afternoon.

Good luck and be safe fellas.

fricking Sharp is a terrible FB player

And several key backups

Might have been better off if they had all opted out. I must have blocked just how bad they are. Damn.

I’ll be back in the saddle this afternoon, heading for The Landmass, hoping to be in a blind by 3. Very little activity the past couple of days with the warmth and the fog. Cold mornings next week!

Be safe and shoot straight guys.
