today is last day and again its pouring rain and high winds. i am thankful i got my 2 in the 1st week. i have saw 12 deer this year, last year i saw 38. last year there was some wind & rain but about half of what we have had this time. had pack of dogs last year that messed up my hunting some. this year its been a constant thing almost everyday they run chase catch and kill the deer. seems to be 11 to 15 of them. they have growled hair raised and couple chewed at my ladder stand while i was in it. [&o]to be honest thats not a good feeling but glad i was up in stand. tomorrow starts gun season again it will run til Jan. 11th. i am scared they will pull down one of the little children in the area, one arrow from a CB won't stop a pack that size and no way i can load another arrow fast enough nor carry enough. i will be glad to move to Pottersville Mo.on our place in may.
