I hear ya sproulman, for me its been the warm weather. Going to camp Tuesday to finish off archery season and start gun season on 11/17. Seen a few does (none within bow range) and one 4 pt buck within bow range, but waiting for the big one.

Took 4 bow shots at 4 different turkeys during my time in the woods, no connection though. Still cool though to see so many, the most I've seen in the past threes for the fall season.

Hoping forcooler weather this week for some deer movement!

Glad to hear you took a nice 8 pointer.
