Well guys,
This afternoon I decided to head down and check the spot that I will probablly be hunting on the first morning and it is looking great. The set-up with be in a funnel of woods about 50 yards wide with a huge hillside at the top that is nothing but small crab apple trees mixed with multi-floral rose (probablly the best bedding area around), and at the bottom of the funnel it opens up to the big woods where there is a thick patch of pines which was timbered a long time ago and the deer bed in the deadfalls. To the west of this stand is a huge corn field and to the right is my BioLogic Green Patch Plus/Clover Plus food plot. The tree I will be hunting has a heavy trail that about 15 yards from it and this trail is surrounded in rubs already! From this tree, I will have a shot at any deer that funnels down through the woods. I will have a 20 yard shot in front of me and a 30 yard shot behind me. My shooting lanes from last year are still good to go, and the tree I will be in is perfect, there is some limbs that are gonna cover me up pretty well. The trees surrounding my stand are all white oaks and the deer will browse all through the area.
It is looking pretty good, now if I can get the big 12 or the big 8 to come past on Oct. 2nd, I will be a happy hunter
