I will stick to it for sure, I live for these days!!! The deer aren't off there patterns, the numbers are down all over. They have been selling doe tags 1 a day to each person for the last couple of years and the preditors are really getting ahead of the game. Between the two, the deer herd had taken a large hit and it is being noticed all over. I know we have some nice bucks running around it is just amatter of time. My time will come, I just hate not seeing deer, makes for a boring hunt.

I did get out today for about 30 minutes. The wind was so strong I felt like I was on a bull ride and for safety sake, I got out of the tree and did a little scouting and cut the rest of my fire wood for camp. Found a few scrapes and a few more rubs, no where near what I have had in the past although the rut is way behind this year, it could turn around tomorrow. Anyway, good luck to all of you!!!!
