Last night and this morning I heard alot of doe bleating and had her at 35 yards. She went on for about a hour, but never brought anything into sight.

Back out at 3pm

Bring some of them deer my way. The only thing I saw today where 2 grouse. Was going to shoot one of them, but they where in a tree and didn't want to loose an arrow and bh just for that.

Saturday, I saw nothing but some Squirrels. Got blown at 5 times on my way out last night.
This AM I had a Spike with one side broken off walk bay at 8 yards & a decent 6 at 33 yrds. but had no shot. We will see what happens tonight. I'll be in a stand 150 yards back from a cornfield at an intersection where3 trails meet & a couple giant Oaks raining acorns
within bow range.

Nothing opening day, and nothing while hunting today. The drive out tonight i saw a nice 8 pointer. Hoping tommorow will be better.

My brother shot a small 80 pound doe, and my dad shot a 130 pound doe. We all saw plenty of deer, I passed up on a few small ones.

I got a doe, my uncle missed 2 does... Also saw a buck of a life time in the middle of the afternoon, came within 15 yards of me, when i drew he turned his back to me, and instead of taking a spine shot, i let down and he busted me...life sucks right now.
But got really really lucky with the rain, in Southern NY it somehow missed us the whole weekend!!!

I saw nothing yesterday... Going out this morning. Sure would be nice to see some movement. Going to be a cold morning, it 27 out right now.....

Saturday it was snowing, sleet and raining plus windy.
Sunday was a beautiful morning.

I saw NOTHING in the 1-1/2 days of hunting...maybe next weekend.

I've had good luck so far, no shooters but lots of bucks and doe. Already seeing aggressive chasing fonr the 2 1/2's which is unusual. Hopefully a big boy will step out this week, trail cams are showing good daylight activity.
