There may be circumstances that I'm not aware in her case? Just making sure she understands the laws if not... But I know she already posted that she killed a buck opening day so I'm not sure how she could kill another until late season with the proper tags.

Are you thinking of Paula? She shot a buck opening day. I might be mistaken, but I thought Cynthia shot a doe.

Had a nice red fox pass by at 15 yards. That’ll probably be my excitement for the night…

Dealing with a trespasser with DEC.
Guy sitting in my stand and became belligerent.
Man does this suck!
Trespassers suck! Just feel entitled, I guess! Sadly, like so many others in todays society!
Sorry it ruined your plans to hunt! I know your hunts have been limited recently.

Went to one stand that I haven’t hunted yet, but the wind wasn’t cooperating. Switched to plan “B”…

Sounds like some nasty weather coming tomorrow! Rain and 50+mph wind gusts.

I wonder if the DEC will be posting the counties that opted out somewhere on their website?

Took a look at trailcam pics when I got home tonight. From 8 cams 99% of the pics were night time. Decent amount of deer, just moving at night. Only bucks were 3 small ones. Funny that the nicest of the 3 bucks has been in my back yard just about every night (~40 yards from my house)! LOL Looks like some chasing on 12/2. And actually, that was ~50 yards from my yard! LOL

Been out at pa camp all weekend, a guy shot an 8 this am in our party, another guy saw an injured button or shed buck last evening and since I Have my son with me we decided to set up on him this evening. 1:51 he dropped him.
Glad you put him out of his misery. That hurts just looking at it!

Checked cams on my way in to the stand. Decent amount of tracks in the trails, but probably all night time activity. Going to wait until I get back to the house to check the SD cards.

Alarm went off at 5. Said Fug that. It ain’t fun like it’s supposed to be.
You and me both Jay! I'm sticking mainly to evening hunts. Sucks bad enough when you go out repeatedly and not see anything, but it's even worse dragging my ass out of a nice warn bed for absolutely nothing. Evening hunts are much more convenient for me and I look forward to them after being cooped up in the house all day working from home. If the trailcams showed any daytime activity it would help, but just nighttime.

Sunshine and blue sky! This is a whole lot better than yesterdays sit, with hurricane winds, pouring rain and sleet!

your dedication is astounding. good luck!
Thanks, but let's be honest... it's stupid! I hunted all last gun season and ML season, before finally seeing my first deer, a doe and fawn, on the very last evening of ML season. I'm not even sure if I would shoot a small buck or a doe if I saw one. I might, but I would probably regret it later. There's really, not enough deer around here to spare any. I'm not getting too frustrated, as I really don't care enough if I get a deer or not. Just putting in stand time and if it happens, it happens.

And the rain just couldn’t hold off until 5:00 like the weatherman said!! Oh goodie…

Decided to go to a stand after all. Big oak that’s not budging in the wind. Doesn’t appear to be any dead branches anyways.

I’d relax .I was out a few days back from the ground .Got lucky as a dead tree fell 45 yards from me .
That's exactly why I'm hesitant! I've had close calls in the past too. If I go out, I think I'll sit in a hedgerow and watch a winter wheat field.

Mighty windy out there this afternoon! Thinking about taking taking the evening off... or not.?

I wonder if there is a way to find local processors who take deer carcass donations using the internet ?
That seems like the type of thing a smart phone or computer might be good for.

Ive got a good feeling for you punching a tag tonight
I’ve had that feeling before, but it just turned out to be gas. Thanks though!

Catching up on what’s been going on and punching in for the evening shift. Thankfully the slight breeze direction is ideal for the closest stand from my house! A whopping ~75 yards out of my yard! LOL Overlooking a thicket funnel in front of me with corn on one side and wheat on the other.

Something just dawned on me. I sure as hell hope @turkeyfeathers and I are never stranded on a deserted island together!! We would probably starve to death!! Well, unless there are a few turkeys to hunt...
God forbid they would put us on Naked and Afraid!! Even with rifles!! @turkeyfeathers
I better stop. Hopefully it's just the whiskey talking....

Not a thing today... damn it. I reactivated and deployed a couple cell cams along the newly cut corn field bordering my property. Hoping if I see some deer moving on cam it'll serve as some much needed motivation. During bow season, I had several pics of the big 10pt I was after in the corner of the field. I would LOVE to get some pics of him now!

At some point, I gotta have sense enough to wave the white flag. I wish I didn't buy my muzzleloader license, so I could put my season out of it's misery at the end of gun season. Wayyyyyy too much effort, for so little return. Hunt #60 in the books...
