Ive been afield the last 3 days & am seeing a good number of daytime bucks. Most havent been worth shooting but I did see both of our hitlist bucks & a few bucks that we've never seen on the property. The two big boys werent behaving as if they were rutting yet, but the young bucks are in full swing. Wont be back out till the weekend, but come Saturday Ill be in the deer woods 3 days straight again. Happy hunting yall!

Hey guys Great to see we are doing well on the score sheet I hit a Doe about a week ago and clipped a limb and hit in front of her shoulder. Never found her, Since then we had the dang hurricane and didn't see hardly any deer during that. This week i went out and had some bucks moving and had 3 does come in but they had buck fawns with them so i passed on them. But i'm going to try and put a doe on the board asap. and also i'm seeing a Great buck on camera. Prob, in the 180" range so i hope i can close the deal on that pig..
Well keep up the good work and Congrats to the guys who have got there kills.

I'm looking at the 5 day extended weather forecast for here in central Illinois, planning a long 4 days afield starting tomorrow. Its going to be in the high 60's both Saturday & Sunday & then dropping hard Monday & Tuesday to highs in the upper 30's, with lows in the mid 20's. They're also predicting heavy rain Sunday night through Monday mid-day.
Sunday evening before the rain & Monday evening after the rain should be awesome, & the predicted cold snap should show some amazing rut behavior.
I think I'm going to invest in a treestand umbrella so I can more comfortably hunt Monday morning. If its going to be raining & in the 20's that morning I expect the deer will be moving pretty good. Plus Ill be afield more throughout the winter instead of staying home due to inclement weather. Anyone here own a treestand umbrella? If so, what do ya think of it & what do you recommend?
