Well guys, today was the opener here in Pennsylvania.

This morning was terrible. The weather was bad and the deer weren't moving, but it wouldn't have mattered for me as at about 8:15a.m. I had a friggin Red Tail Hawk fly into the open woods I was in and grab a squirrel out of a tree 10 yards from me and start eating it. The squirrel made all kinds of noise and it set off every other squirrel in the woods.

Well, this evening was much better. I went out to my best friends uncles farm and we didn't even scout the area. I went to a old stand we used a few years ago and climbed in. I was in stand at about 4:20 p.m. (I know, it was late but it was pouring so I waited to go out). Well, at 4:35 p.m. I had a button buck come in and bed down beside me at about 15 yards. About 10 minutes later a deer came up from behind me and walked past me at about 4 yards, it was a small 5 pt! He worked his way into the corn field and about 5 minutes after he went in, I saw what I thought was him comming out. I pulled up my binos and saw a HUGE main beam and a G-2 that looked to be pushing a foot long, with GREAT mass. I studied this rack as much as I could (it was behind a screen of brush), and finally the deer got his body into a opening, but this area has a 4 pt per side antler restriction and I believe that this is the big 6 point that we have been seeing. This 6 point has a huge body, his antlers are probablly 20" wide with huge back tines and probablly 6"-7" brow tines. I let him walk and didn't see him again. Then all crap broke loose. Before the day was over, I had seen over 2 dozen deer from the stand with a total of three bucks, none shooters. This stand is looking very good and hopefully Tuesday morning I will be back in it (Tuesday our high temp for the day is supposed to only be 53 degrees compared to upper 60's)

Well, I am tired, I hope ya'll had a good day!
