I bit the bullet today and took Tuesday off from work. Suppose to be 50 with rain/snow mix on Monday and high of 32 on Tuesday. So if they aren't quite moving this weekend then that will surely get em going.

Looks like a good spot! I sat in the rain this am. As soon as I climbed down so I could come to work, a deer snorted and took off...15 more minutes.

Good luck! I'm going out tonight and tomorrow evenings. One more week of archery here until rifle opens Saturday. Pressure's on!

Went out Saturday evening and had 3 does and 1 little buck come out right after shooting light. I had a decoy out and they stayed clear of that. Checked a couple cams last night and went back down today, since I'm off this Tuesday, maybe Wednesday instead if the wind forecast is correct. But I bombarded the area of where I'm going to sit with scents and scrapes, tucked my decoy in the trees and am ready to get out there. But heres a couple guys that made their presence known.

That's a couple of nice 10's!

I am frustrated after this weekend. 4 evening sets in a row showed very little deer movement. I'm only seeing fawns and small doe. I'm thinking maybe the bucks and mature doe are breeding? Even then, you'd think I'd see a buck or two cruising. Our Archery season ends Friday and then reopens for 10 days in December. Time's running out!

I'm frustrated also. 5 straight days and 35 hours in the woods and no luck. I did pass up about a 120 8 point on the 1st morning of my vacation at 15 yards. He had me thinking but just wasn't quite what I was looking for. That was the only buck that I saw that I considered shooting. I take that back I did see a 3 point that would have score about 60 or 70. He was a dandy was of 3 point but he was aways out in the crp field. I'm. Trying to not get discouraged but it's hard when you know you have a few nice ones on camera and just cannot find them during hunting hours.
