RE: Interesting 1 st day hunt.
Glad you had a good morning. I stumbled into a spot that had very fresh droppings and lots of tracks. Looks promising. I was out of the woods by abouot 10 though. Forgot my most important piece of equipment... DEET. I was practically carried off by the skeets!
BTW, It was good to meet you Chuck.
Same here Mike..I'm sorry to hear that..I had 2 new mosquito things in my truck..one was Deet..but since Reb scared me
it's still in it's package..I also have deep woods and it was working fine..I certainly would have given them to you.I also keep 5 extra packs of trail tacks and numerous deer calls..Just give me a call when you need something..Also ..if you ever wantto do Powder together you can ride with me and save gas..I can drop you off at your spot and hunt my spot..no problem. ..and pick you up at 10:00 ish..

Good to hear that people are seeing decent deer. I was not so fortunate, seen absolutly nothing besides a ton of mosquitos. Popped the thermacell on and it worked wonders. Just good to get in the woods though. Good luck to all.

Rob..
Welcome Rob...and you are 100% sure..I'd forgotten what a swarm of mosquitoes looked like .I almost forgot how to assemble my climber [8D]..but yep..the sound of something big behind me braking limbs was exciting.The flitting of 2 Carolina Wrens in the tree next to me was neat as well. Sitting on the tail gate listening to an old timer was priceless. I sat and listened for a good hour. My bottle of luke warm water I'd forgot I had in my truck was priceless.
I downed it in what big swig.I love hunting.
