I use the sawyer stuff it works very well. It smell when you put it on so I do it when I will not be out for a couple days . I can not smell any hint of it after a while. Says it lasts a few wash cycles too. I am getting low and need to get more. I got at Bass last time. Anyone know anywhere else that sells it? Or mail order?

10/19 pm 64 Went down to the deep hole stand for 3 hours. At 4pm had a doe fawn come in from behind me left. She hung around for a while and I though/hoped momma would show. She disappeared out left. I was very windy/gusty and leaves falling like rain. About 5:30 I see the little doe fawn come hustling out where she disappeared and behind her a bigger deer. Yea momma, nope a three pointer must of spooked the little one. He goes through my shooting lane at 30 and gets almost to my other lane when the wind changes direction and he does not like that and wanders back. Just a little guy he gets a pass. About 15 minutes later I have a doe and a fawn come out on my right side from behind me and the doe is about two steps from my shooting lane when she gets all hinky and turns around she was directly downwind so that did not turn out well. Well at least I am seeing them. My bro was up on the ridge and saw zero just got dizzy blowing back and forth. Pouring now I will get up at 5:30 and check the weather.

I have no respect for any union or business for that matter that has a production line go down and that operator can not touch a tool to fix even if he can, can not grab a broom to keep the place clean, can not help the guy next to him to boost production but must just stand there with his thumb up his ass because that is the way the union does it. And yes that was NVG first hand knowledge and a bunch of who shot John! Unions had a place 50 years ago. Now it is just so someones sisters red headed cousin in law can not get fired! Sorry I never rant on here give me this one!! lol -
hells yea

10/18 pm 58 Man oh man what a night! Got out late so hit my favorite stand behind the house. Got in stand about 4:30pm and the leaves were like potato chips after getting wind dried all day. Saw my first deer at about 5:40 or so just a fawn about 100yds out flash between the trees. Must have been chasing mom. Then things got interesting at about 6:05 I have two small ones cut across behind me at about 60 yards. either a small doe and a fawn or two fawns/buttons. And 80 yards behind them comes another. He looks like the 4 I passed a week plus ago. They get nervous about him and work away. A few minutes later across behind me from the other direction come 2 more that look like flat heads then another and I see some antler then another can't tell what. The third in that line walks up to the 4 point and they smack antlers and then just stand there. I hear one wheeze like a snort wheeze but just the ffsssssssss I end up hearing that 3 times as well as a couple grunts during the whole deal. Anyhows the second buck then turns back towards the 4th deer and they smack antlers a few times I can not see just hear then one is chasing around one of the smaller deer. So now I know 3 are bucks, I can not see any good in the dimming light. They end up hanging around and then actually two more after dark come in as I am stuck in tree, I can not even see them just hear them. It finally is quiet about an hour after legal and I start to get down and I hear another but this one sounds funny. It ends up being a raccoon coming right to my tree! I finally get out and head out doing the tiptoe and stop start grunt and go game and still bump at least 7 deer coming out! One blew up about 10 feet from me as I stopped and kicked the leaves around. I about had a heart attack! I was trying everything to not sound human! Guess I was doing ok. I have never heard a wheeze this time of year and I am not sure if they were harassing a doe or maybe some buttons? The one and two bucks walked off after a bit and if a doe was hot I do not see that happening. Neither got a butt whipping there was only a few antler smacks. None of the bucks looked real big body wise. It was a fun night for never even pulling back the bow!!

10/18 am 51 Out in the fave stand behind the house again. Bumped two from near it on way in the dark. Just before 7 had one come by me at 20 yards in the dim light, could not see too well to see any antlers. Sat two hours after legal light and saw zilch. Lot of leaves falling today with the wind. Also a big moon was low in the sky on my way in. Maybe why they were moving real early.

Bumped two out from near stand on way in. Had another go by at 20 yards around 7. Now let's see if something will move in daylight for me. Little breeze and damp out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

10/17 am 52 Out behind the house in my favorite ladder stand. Little cooler this morn, beautiful stars on the way in. It was real quiet with the rain overnight and did not see a thing until about 8am and saw one quite a ways out going right to left. It looked to be a flat head. I was looking so hard at that one I was late seeing more come angling across and out from my left. A bit out of my range and the first I did not see any headgear but not sure. The second was a decent young buck, not quite a shooter yet. About 2 minutes later I see another flathead crossing right to left in front about 80 yards out. For a few minutes deer where going every which way! I had to bug out at 8:30 to be on a conference call at 9am so that stunk. But a good morning seeing 4 in 1.5 hours on stand.

I put new strings on past summer. I used Americas Best and have no complaints. Been shooting all summer and fall and no stretch or twist. I have not tried the others so can only say how mine is. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free
