Last bow hunt of October this afternoon. No deer. Nothing. The woods is flooded out and I sat in standing water. The same place I missed the deer last week. There was fresh sign around so the deer are there, just not tonight.

I' ll hunt in the morning Saturday. Maybe some DE youth will shoot some my way. I hunted youth day last year in the evening and listened to some kid blast away, 6 shots in all over 5 mins at a deer. Wonder if he/she ever got it?

It was a quiet Oct from the DE crowd. Guess the itch is gone and hunts routine. Im planning 5 hunts in Nov before shotgun. Lets hope for cooler weather to get the rut going good.

See you in the November Thead!
