Well it was a great morning to be on stand. Too bad the deer didn't show up ,LOL,the colours were vibrant as the leaves fluttered to the ground. I tried calling Moose and had a few replies but the bull stayed to the edge of the woods for 2 hours then took off. It started raining for 2 hours and then stopped and I got out of my stand by 10:30. I'll try again tonight.

Hey Guys I just got back from checking out our new property in Indiana and I could not be more excited for my 4 day bow hunt the first week of november down there and the gun season the week of thanksgiving. The hill country would probably give me a heart attack if I have didn't have an ATV. But I have alot of great spots.
In the mean time I am back here in IL ready for tomorrow morning! Good luck team!
Snapper- we hunt 20 minutes north of wayne city

Well I saw several doe's and a spike yesterday but nothing in shooting range. The wind direction really didn't help my cause much. The only thing I had in shooting range was a set of orphan triplets who kept running around playing in the beans. You could still see faint spots on them. I don't know where mama was but they seemed to be doing fine. Everything else never came inside 80 yards.
I heard lots of activity in the dark so i am assuming the bright moon caused them to feed at night.

I'm heading back to the farm this weekend. This will be my last trip until the end of the month because of the lull and scheduling. Hoping to tip one over in my 'honey hole' stand. I'll keep you all posted!

Man I am back from the lease but I am empty handed....Lots of rain and lots of north wind. Those are 2 things that we normally don't a lot of in the hill country of Texas. I will head to my farm on Saturday but doubt I shoot anything there. I will head back to the lease on 10/13 for a few days if the weather looks right.
