..............and I'm not hunting here in NJ anymore either.

I figured I'd suck it up and go sit tonight, so I went this evening for four hours. The oneword to describe this eventwould be......"worthless".


The only thing I accomplished was perspiringabout 5 gallons of sweat into the lining of my new scent blocker suit.....although I did see a couple of nice sized does,I was too miserable to even draw. I justwasn't in the mood for tracking a doein the heat, not to mention playing host to a new batch of chiggers. The only reason I sat in the first place was because this particular spot is on the edge of a corn field(easy to get to, and have seen some mature bucks here in the early season). Any stuck deer would certainly plow through the bull briars directly behind me, and head straight for the swamp.....which isn't even a swamp any more. It's completely dried out, and has some reminisce of rotting deer carcasses...... which were there due to the "blue tongue disease"......If I have to hear that term one more time...[:@]

Sorry for the rant, but things are pretty bad around here.

It's good to hear thatsome of the hunters on this site have experienced success. Keep up the good hunting, some of the recent threadsare definately aninspiration. Hopefully things will change around here soon.

Good Luck to you all.
