I'm getting ready to head to the woods boys! Its warm and windy today. Not a good combo but I know I won't kill anything on the couch.

What's everyone been seeing?

I'm heading out tonight myself...I havent been out since saturday when I saw those 4.

On a side note, I am heading up moose hunting on Sunday. We will be up in the northwestern most corner of Maine. We've got the week to put one on the ground, hopefully we will be out of there by tuesday though. I'll post up some pictures when I get back!

Here's the one I got 4 years ago...(56" spread 850lbs dressed(after the rut))

How is everyone's season going? I have only been out a few times since the opener. I only have a couple of spots and I don't like to overhunt them early season.

Moved by two man big man stand this weekend. It's a rock solid, heavy sucker that I like to place in a strategic location for late October into gun season. Anyway, I let it down myself off the tree it was on that had died using many ropes and all was fine. Then, while it was on the ground, I lifted it up some and began to drag it to a new tree, slipped and it karate chopped me on the thigh, sending me reeling backward on my butt. Fortunately, after a trip to Urgent Care, it turned out the lump on my leg was just a bruised muscle with some blood built up. The doctor on call said her husband moves his deer stands a lot too and that she wishes he would stop moving them so much and just hunt!

Anyway, I had my father-in-law help me put it on the new tree using an eye bolt a heavy rope and lots of manpower to pull it up, but unless this tree dies, it's not moving until it hits the scrap pile.

Be careful out there, even when you're on the ground!

Looking forward to the next few days. It's going to be in the upper 40s/low 50s the next few mornings! That's almost unheard of here in SC. Hopefully the deer will be on their feet.
