I will be heading for Mendon in a few minutes to hunt with my older son . Just doing a morning hunt as it will be quite warm this afternoon .

I had a pair of work shoes hanging in the garage . Hadn't worn them in over a year . Got them down to wear to work today . Both of the shoes had sunflower chafe in them . The mice must have crawled across the beams went down the laces and stored seeds in the shoes .

Get those little bastards !

Spent the day in Geneseo . Was in my stand early . Sat back and relaxed . At 7:18 am 2 doe and a fawn walked through the middle of the bean field over 100 yards out . They milled around for about 10 minutes and went back the way they came . That was it for the morning sightings . Got out of the stand at 10 am . I walked down the laneway to check another stand and saw where the strap for the brace to that ladder stand had broke . Went up to my ATV and back to the car . Called my SIL to see if she wanted a couple of jobs done and she was going somewhere with one of her horses so they left me off the hook . Went down to Geneseo , got something to eat and took care of a few things . Went back to my SILs property and headed for the stand with the broken strap . Put a new on on and climbed in for a long afternoon . I was in the stand from 2:30 until almost 6:30 . Between 5:15 and 5:52 I saw 5 doe , 1 fawn and a buck in the field next to my SILs property . The closest was at least 50 yards from my stand . The buck came charging out of the woods and chased a doe down the field . Grabbed my gear and went to my ATV . Drove up to wear I was parked . When I got there , there was a PU truck half way in the road with his lights flashing and not to far from my trailer . Apparently when he came around the curve a buck ran out and he hit it . The guy said it was a monster . It was probably one of the 4 points I saw the other day . There was plastic and some glass scattered in the road and it was difficult to get people to slow down . The driver was damn near deaf and his wife was screaming for people to slow down . A neighbor called the accident in and a Trooper showed up . I left . At least it wasn't another boring day !

After having a small chest freezer crap out a few years ago , I put a remote thermometer in the new freezer . I have the receiver by the computer . It is 8.1 degrees .

Isn't it kinda early for bucks to be chasing doe ? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Around 345 I was talking to my youngest son and a 4 engine bomber flew directly over me . The War Plane Museum is down by the river . Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Growie - are you the one who has Xena on a License Plate ?

nice looking buck ... good luck

I have never tried using the Peroxide but have heard that it works quite well .

I have a Samsung S-5 phone . I don't use Tapatalk that much but have never encountered a problem using it .

Git 'r done ! Good luck ...

The power was out in our area for 22 hours . It came back on around 3:30 yesterday afternoon . I let a couple of the neighbors that had generators running that it was back on and they could shut them off . One of the neighbors had his still running 1 1/2 hours after the power was on .

My worse hunting day ever !!!! I was in a stand in Geneseo by 6:45 . I was at the very South end of a LaneWay where the wind was in my face . About 7:45 a small buck came within 20 yards and sniffed the ground where I had a Honeysuckle smoke stick lit . He was there maybe 3 minutes and wandered into the bean filed . He had been looking down the laneway so I thought more deer might be coming . Not a chance . It had been cold and windy and some small limbs had been hitting the ladder stand . I thought I would shoot mt 2 target arrows so I removed my arrow wit the broadhead but ..... the broadhead was missing . I don't know how it unscrewed but it was gone . Looked below where it should have fallen but no luck .I could only imagine what would have happened if I had shot at a deer with no point on an arrow . Duh ! I went up to my car , put my gear away , changed my clothes and went to McDonald's in Geneseo to get a coffee and a burger . I parked and walked in as I didn't want to go through the Drive-Thru with the trailer & ATV . Got warmed up and left . My passenger side trailer light looked odd and I checked it out . It was busted up pretty good . Either someone hit the trailer or busted the light to be a jerk . Drove to WalMart and bought a replacement . Had to buy a crimper kit as I didn't have mine with me . Spent some time getting the broken one off and got the new one one . It wouldn't work . Went over to Tractor Supply and bought a different replacement . I couldn't get that to work either . Drove home as I didn't want to be driving at night with the light not working . It wouldn't be as noticeable during daylight hours . My afternoon hunt was a no go ! When I got home , I backed the trailer in the garage , grabbed a cup of coffee and played with the light some more . Got it to work . Back in action . I still wonder how the trailer light got smashed ........ I hope that there are better days ahead !

Kinda breezy here in Geneseo. Had a small buck 20 yards upwind of me at 7 45. He posed but I didn't draw. In a couple weeks I might change my mind. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

The power has been out since 5:15 last night . Sure glad I invested in the Whole House Generator !

Your hunting buddy , Phade , will probably shoot him .

My oldest son and I hunted in Mendon yesterday . I saw 2 doe . The closest one was 65 yards away . I was down wind and they never looked my way . My son saw an 8 point basket rack buck . We quit at 10 am as it was getting rather warm . I think I will give Geneseo a try Monday as it looks to be quite cool .

I no longer use a drag rope . I switched to a sled long ago . Much easier . Sled is 66" long

Well , Rob-C , when are you going to add up all the ages and come out with an average ?
