Anyone else have the itch yet? I am getting treestands ready for this weekend. I will be in Maryland Sept 15 for there opener.

I fell ya I have been counting down for a while now I will doing somthing early season on Sept 15th.

I don't know what to feel as of yet I have been told 2 times to seek out a career change and should not expect to be walking in 5 years( all this within the last3 months) but honestly as soon as it drys out around here I will be tug'n on that hoyt!! And you can bet if pain mangnt. don't work I'll be in D/B Blind!!

The countdown continues.

Yup, feeling the itch here!
3-D shoots every weekend til opener as well as starting to spend some evenings in the area I am hunting with a video camera to get a look around as what is moving!

I have that itch also. I have been very busy as of late but will start scouting soon. Is it to late to start scouting? This is my 1st year bowhunting for deer.

been doing some scouting and some spotting and i'm seeing quite a few hopefulls. Everyone around here has gone easy on them the past couple years and its really showing dividends this year. Quite a few deer around. Pumped and ready for the opener!

Yes. I have had the game cams out for about a month now with nothing significant to post about. I try to drive through my hunting area at least once or twice a week. All my stand sites are all ready to go now it is just time for some more intense practice with the bow.

I will be putting the game cameras back up next week. Been doing some drive by scouting and have seen deer every time. I must admit I'm really looking forward to some quality time spent in the treestand.

Are you all hunting in fields? For me todrive pastwere I hunt I would have to walk back about before I would see some deer. Due to my busy schedule I do not think I will be able to scout until August 19th is that to late to start?
