I will probably only be able to hunt the afternoon on the Saturday opener due to work. My game plan is to set-up on a ridge overlooking a big lake, trying to catch the deer as they slowly feed. Plus, there is something nostalgic about the sounds/feel of being close to big water when I hunt....

Any of you going for gold and invading a bedding area hoping to get lucky early?

Already have a buck patterned?

Just winging it?

And oh yeah....man I wish I had a house like this to live and hunt from one day.....just dreaming tonight

im hunting in an area weve had for years.... hoping to get my first deer this year! i put my trail camera over apples 2-3 months ago, and the place was loaded with deer. i stopped puting apples out there for a week and now most of them are gone! i start monday but i cant stay to long cuz i have to go into school that morning. im hoping to get the huge buck i got on my trail cam but will take anything that walks in front of me. im hunting firearms and bow here in Ct then trying out my new ny property for firearms


I CANT WAIT

Opening morning I'll probably be in a little creek bottom. There's a bedding area to my left and the bottom is a perfect funnel to and from a couple different food sources.

Sitting in a funnel on the edge of the bedding area in the morning. I have to check the camera's to find the afternoon spot.

So we have two of the four that have responded already hitting the bedding areas.....cool.

I am setting up on the edge of a bedding area on a ridge/creek bottom that funnels them to a corn field on both sides of me. Then I am hunting the big field that afternoon.

Nothing. I'll be watching the boards too see who scores or I just might possibly go back up to northern Minnesota and hit the woods for bear again. Still up In the air yet though.[>:]

Good luck to all who head on out!!

My opener will be on a saddle overlooking bedding and within 50 yrds of a creek. Its full of white oaks and Im seeing lots of scrapes in the area.

Good luck!

I should add, on Sat night I should be out as well. Depending on what the wind does I have two setups in mind, both hunting the same corn field. I am hoping for a South East wind, but I probably won't get it[&o]
