Well everyone nothing new here. The woods seem pretty dead. I got out Friday night and saw a doe and fawn. Then Saturday morning and night nothing. Sunday morning again nothing. This I am told by the neighbors is pretty normal for where I hunt. They claim all the deer move to the corn west of our place. They have about 200 acres over there. I have noticed this in the past 2 seasons. Anyway I will get out again this Friday and Saturday. Have to be home Sunday morning. Hope everyone else is having better luck.

Jen-Don't worry about the arrow coming off the rest. Just learn from it. Sounds like you did not get busted so she will come back. As for skinning deer it is easy. We hang ours by the hind legs. Just cut up the inside of the hind legs and start to peel the skin back. When you get to the tail you cut that off and start to pull down. After you do a few you will be able to skin a deer in about 10 minutes. The rest you husband should know from doing beef. It is some work but it does save money in the long run and can be fun. Thanks for the comment on our room. It is nice and sure is better then taking it home and doing it in the wifes kitchen. She never really took to that.[]
