Good job Sika!!! Md, De, what's the difference!!! Sounds like you had a great preminition going there. You called it, what, way back in September that 11/9 was to be your day?

Had a real close call tonight! Had a beast come in at 4:30! Heard him make scrapes in a patch of hollies. He came in on the wrong side of me (Why and how do the monsters always pull that off??!!!) Bleated with my mouth to stop him in what looked like a small opening. He went one step to far! I leaned out to shoot and he picked me out!! The opening was fairly small so it's probably best he took off! He was a basic ten with split brows and forked G2s. Had about a 20" spread. I have his shed from last year so I figure he's 4.5 plus! Dang fine buck!!!! Hope he makes through gun season!!!

I'll be in Maryland for the next few weeks avoiding the pumpkin army! Will follow Sika's lead and post reports here! Good luck everyone!!!
