That it is. I'm hoping the weather cooperates a bit more than it did today. I also hope I can fix my dang press situation.[&:]

Hey guys I'm back & still elkless, but certainly filled with memories to last a lifetime. I'll sneak out a couple days this week after work to try and take a doe with my longbow in the early doe season.

That's what's important Ryan. Good luck this week.

well i lied in my last post friday morning....thought i about kicked the cold....HA...it was the calm before the storm...felt real good friday morning....by the time my last class rolled around i wanted to take a drill to my sinuses....it got BAD...eyes felt like they were buggin out, watering...whole 9yds...last class let us out early(3hr class so it was still long) pretty sure it was because i looked like i might die lol...actually thought about running out of the room once....but went home and went to the dr and got antibiotics....still not 100% but dang better than i was...didnt do a dang thing all weekend.....

Saturday morning will be here in a hurry now......hopefully the weather cooperates....looking good thus far!

Here's the link to my thread about my trip.
Oh believe me Mauser I wanted to kill something, really bad. But getting mad over not doing so isn't worth it. I had an incredible time, and the experiences I had are more than many can say, but at times I was looking to the skies wondering what more I needed to do to get things to bounce my way.

Another day closer my PA brothers of the bow.

And our other brothers waiting on opening day.

I was able to get out behind the house last night for the early doe season. Took the longbow along. Nothing all night, except a flying squirrel that came in right at dark & started squeaking at me. They are the coolest little critters, fairly bold & inquisitive.

They are cool Ryan. I had an encounter with one I was not proud of. As many know, I work for a Telco co. I climbed this pole to a terminal and opened it. I saw something go out of it but didn't think. There was a nest in the terminal so I knocked out. In the process I saw two little pink hairless critters. At that point I felt like crap but we can't have them in the terminals. Suddenly this flying squirrel hit the side of the pole. She ran down the pole, picked up one of her pups (?) and climbed up the pole past me and glided over to another tree. She flew back, down the pole, grabbed the other one and up the pole past me and over to the tree. I can assume they made it but I'll never know. I still felt like crap.

And another day down.

Anybody's season open tomorrow Oct 1? We should all be hunting soon.

I should have hunted last night. Instead I was cutting grass and getting stuff done around the house. 3 does walked the woods at the edge of the yard. [:@]
That's ok, I know where they live
