I hear ya there buddy lol. I live about 8 miles south of the north dakota border and i havent seen any sign of EHD either, actually the deer herd up here looks very healthy this year. I am seeing alot of twins and triplets and the mule deer herd seems to be coming back. I hope the diseases stay down south.

P.S.- i will be in the stand for the first time this year in exactly 12 1/2 hours.
