I hunt:D!! I just have nothing to share with you all!!??

Tonight's Update.......
I went out to a new spot for the year because I have not been seeing any deer in the evenings!! I went in and just nestled myself between a small valley against some brush on the ground and was able to see a bit of distance. I caught a movement about 530..turns out it was a grey squirrel. I saw some movement at about 540 turns out it was the same grey squirrel. I seen some movement at 545 turns out it was another grey squirrel!!!! Finally I catch some movement at 600 and it was BIGGGGGGGGGGGGG fox squirrel!!!!!! This repeated itself until dark and I did not see any deer:D:D!! Hey you wanted to know[8D]!!

So thats my eventful night, I am getting ready to sit down and try to calm my nerves now... I can hardly shake the buck fever!!....or hell doe fever for that matter, thats really whatI am looking forward to taking, but cant get the chance!!

Well this morning I got home from work at 6am, it was really cloudy so it was still pitch black out, I said screw it, hopped in for a quick scent away shower, threw on some pants and long sleeve shirt and my scentlok jacket, and went to a corn field on the border of the UofI land, well 5 min. after I got there I seen 3 Doe's and they were working there way away from me, then the Skeeters showed up by the hundreds, and that's not even a lie, they were horrible, flying in my eyes, nose, ears, I was thinking DAMN I forgot my Thermacell. Anyways, I continued swatting at them like crazy, then I see movement on the tree line, it's a big doe, and she starts jogging right at me, and since I am on the ground, I draw back when shes about 70 yards out. I am holding my bow back and then feel the pain in my hands, I glance down and see 8 mosquitos on my bow hand, I just grin and bear it, she finally gets about 40 yards, and then she spots me, and stops, take a slight turn quartering away, and I put my 40yd pin on her and let it fly...I watch my arrow sail about 15 feet over her back...lost that arrow. So I am thinking it had to be a combination of skeeters, holding my bow for to long, and excitement of my first deer encounter. WELL......15 min of killing dozens of skeeters later, I see 4 Doe's working there way towards the timber .....to make a long story short, one of the Doe came within 35 yards perfect broadside, I put my 30yd pin on the top of her back, hit my release, my arrow was in perfect line up and down, but sailed about 10 feet behind her....WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON. Just glad I didn't make a badhit, or that those were shooter bucks. I will beat the range tomorrow[:@]

Went to Columbus the last two days for work so I decided to leave early on Sunday and film my brother in law. We have a double set strictly for filming and it was enjoyable. He passed on two small bucks at 20 yards and we saw several does.......took a shot and missed. That was his first miss........allegedly!
