Whatsup guys, sorry I haven't had time to check in lately. Fiancee had me busy all weekend, and the Big Ten football games have finally started.

BowHnt - that brief I was writing was for a workmen's compensation claim. Technically it was a "Claimant's Proposed Findings of Fact," where I argue that ourclient is unable to work due to a physical disability caused by a work-related event. A C5-6 Herniation, to be precise.

So Sunday morning I scouted this new farm. I think I'm changing my plan of attack. There's an isolated oak flat about 1/3 mile from the cornfield. Between the two is a thick bedding area. I think I'm going to hunt the oaks in the morning, and circle around to a staging area (between bedding area and corn) in the evening. I've seen a lot of deer activity there, and it's always late evening.

The acorns are all over the ground, and I'm thinking that there must be some activity in there, because it looks like a pig pen (but there's little/no fresh droppings). They aren't white oaks, though.

I scouted a really good pinchpoint, but I'm going to put my buddy there on the opener - he's never killed a deer with his bow, so I know he'll get a shot at something. Besides, I figure if I camp out in that acorn flat, I might get to whack a heifer doe and make a go at winning the doe conte$t.

I normally hunt alone, but he's the guy who helped me access this new farm, so I feel obliged to help him get a deer.
