Man I am going nuts, with the temps today in IL being around 74 with LOW humidity, it felt like early Oct. Had to break out the bow and try my new Lumenoks....Amazing those things are. Anyways, just wanted to release my tension....carry on!

Man, I was thinking the same thing yesterday. Was sitting on the couch, windows open, acool breeze blowing in and I was watching a few hunting shows. It really did feel like October, So close yet so far way!

h-m-m-m-m-m-m, I'm so happy I'm so happy , whistle a tune whistle a tune. toe tapping toe tapping, hand tapping hand tapping! stare-stare

I can't take it anymore either. Everything around me right now is just screaming deer season. I got home from work this morning and drove the bike in the garage and shut it off. Closed the garage door walked around the corner and there stood a doe and twin fawns drinking at the pond. I wake up this afternoon and go get the mail and there is the new issue of F&S with a buck on the front cover with velvet hanging off his rack. I find myself drinking a couple extra beers now!

I just got back from the bow range. 3rd time in 5 days. I'm ready. I even sighted in both my 44 mags, my 357, and even my muzzle loader yesterday. Granted I'll have to check each of them again, but that's ok. I still need to sight in the shotgun as well. I can't wait! Under 50 days until bow season starts!!!

I'm goin worse than nuts. lows in mid to lower 60's. great winds. and i had 20 pics of does in the middle of the day. all one day.
My wife is thinking about petitioning the MDC to start season early this year so i'll quit driving her bonkers

I was thinking the same thing this morning as I was driving into work. Drove past a bean field that had 7 or 8 deer in it, really starting to get my juices flowing. Oct needs to get here quick!!!!!!!

that first cool breeze gets me going, though I've yet to feel that, makes me think of 2 things, football, and hunting.

Up here in Champaign last night you could see your breath, a whopping 52 degrees.

Ya, it was a chilly ride home this morning on the Harley!
