rybo, i feel your pain....hang in there man...


i slept in this morning...since i had mono a couple years ago colds REALLY kill me...i was exhausted and knew i couldnt get up....and i didnt....slept clear till 11..got up and messed around a bit and was curled up in a ball snoring by 12 or 1 lol....got back up, showered and felt great and headed for the woods....opted to hunt over the scrapes and rubs i found last night coon hunting...its right across the road from my honey hole and thats where i was parked...wind was PERFECT for it, and dangerously borderline bad for the honey hole...so i figured id give it a go...settled in about 4...spot looked better and better the more i looked around..found a couple smaller rubs...nice trails with fresh droppings...crabapples scattered about...a bit after 5 here comes another hunter...walked right down the trail with all the rubs and scrapes on them...he was being quiet and passed right by so cant complain...didnt see any deer....talked to him after the hunt...he seen a 3pt mon or sat and his buddy seen the 3pt and a monster mon or sat sparring...he got the monster on camera...had cameras in dang near every woodlot possible from what it sounds like...even my honey hole hill!!! said all he got on film up there was a couple 8s and so other small bucks...he said he wont bother hunting up there coz he got other bigguns on film in other spots...(1 REAL close to the funnel i was in last evening...said its a big 11pt maybe 300yds away...so that funnel could produce big!)

next time i'll be out will be here at school for the first time all year thursday evening....need to find a good tree yet so i cant morning hunt...pumped about that because of the fresh rubline i found when i was in there a while back...


season is young...but i know how fast its gunna go....and im minus 2 weekends so thats gunna sting a little...though that lets my spots chill out a bit and the last 3 weekends aughta be good with the seeking and chasing kicking in right around there.....
