This is getting old. 7 hours in a tree stand today, nothing, unless you count bird dogs. Figured a couple weeks into the season and midweek, the small gamers would give it a rest. Well, there were a couple hours without cow bells in the distance during the late morning, but no deer to be seen. Went out 1 day with the ML last week, nothing then either. ML ends on Friday, hope to get out with the bow before the shotgun season yahoos hit the woods. It may be tough, my mom's still in the hospital in NY, and I'll probably have to spend some time there... the fat lady is clearing her throat, but she aint singing yet...
