Hey guys, Thanks for the kind words everyone. I am doing fine. Still looking for a job but I have been making the most of my time off. I made it out for an evening hunt last night. It poured the rain for the first hour I was on stand. It finally quit raining about 4:00 pm. and that's when the action began. I saw 6 different bucks from 4:00 to dark. The biggest being about a 145 -150" ten point. He was a beauty. I was exclusively doe hunting and I haven'tbought my second buck tag yet, I had to watch him walk by at 22 yards. None of the other five bucks I seen were mature just yet. 4 of them were 2.5 year olds with a ton of potential. One of them was a beautiful looking 10 point that would score about 125", however, he just didn't have the mass yet. I also saw 2 eight points a seven point and a 3 point. All of them were 2.5 year olds except the 3 point which was only 1.5 years old. Needless, to say I had a great day on stand. 3 of the 6 bucks presented shots. Go figure.... no does even came into range. I had a great time just watching all those bucks. I didn't have to worry about "the shot" I grunted at them and turned the can at them and even rattled at them some. It was almost comical watching the bucks run around me looking for my grunt tube and doe bleat. It was one of the best hunts in a long time and I didn't even draw back my bow.

By the way Mike, I am not in the constuction field. My last job was in sales. Guys wish me luck and hopefully I can find a job soon. Keep at it fellas the time is now. The bucks are on the move.
