It started raining right before I saw that small 8 pointer. Then it rained harder and harder. I was hoping it would staop by dark but it didn't. After 3.5 hours of sitting in the rain being a little cold alot wet I still couldn't think of a place I'd rather be.
I'll get the video posted today. I have too figure something else out for the camera mount it makes my bow to top heavy.

Can't wait to see the videos Danno! It won't be long before you get to let the air out of one of those bucks you had on trailcam.
Al, I have 13 broadheads here at work for you - hope to mail them out today, if the rain holds off until I can get to the post office.
I had an interesting weekend. Saturday morning was supposed to be a washout (and for the most part, it was), but the weather held off long enough for me to wake up and realize that I had a 5-6 hour window to drive out to the farm where I videotaped that huge buck, and beg for permission to hunt. Well, I got myself in. Woooo! *silent fist pump*
Landowner says that there will be 1-2 other guys out there bowhunting from time-to-time, but he has enough acreage to stay out of their way. Really nice people.
I took a short walk around the property, and wasn't able to really isolate any "great" bow stand sites, but found a couple decent areas.
I did find two turtles humping.
Turtle Porno
This guy wasseriously givin' herall he had. This was the Ron Jeremy of turtles. He didn't even slow down when I showed up. My camera takes video, but I thought it might have been a little bit too graphic - besides, the action was a little... uhh... slow. Git-r-dun.
Our friends threw a party on Saturday night, and I got drunk. Somebody came up with a dozen freebie tickets to some amusement park, so Sunday morning,we alltook our magnum-hangoverstoKennywood Park, and almost pukedour guts out on some ride called the "Aero 360." I absolutely dominated some little kid on the bumper cars. His life will never be the same. I was all hopped-up on Mountain Dew, Adviland Cheesy Fries.
My wife says that I "embarassed her" with my aggressive driving tactics inside the bumper car arena. It was like Days of Thunder out there.
It was hotter than hades. Thank god for water rides, or otherwise, I might have had a heat stroke.

Less than two weeks to the opener. This morning it was a crisp, breezy, 59 degrees. High today forecasted for 78.
What a difference a year makes, on this day last year the morning temp was78 and we hadn't had any rain for 2 months, the high on 16September 2007was 88.
I'm getting stoked!

May be one of those deals where from a 'political' standpoint, I have to give in a little bit for more slack later in the season....
