Just the buck chasing the doe this morning and on my walk out saw a flock of 40-50 turkeys and had anywhere between 5-10 Toms and jakes.
be out this pm overlooking a hidden meadow with an apple orchard off the one side that’s usually tore up with scrapes.

Didn’t make it to where I wanted to be didn’t get moving fast enough this morning. However my setup is still good. Over looking logging trail and have a bunch of fresh rubs coming from a couple different directions and a really fresh scrape line that has 5 scrapes leading to this spot that weren’t here this past weekend

Up and heading out

Thank you very much. That’s what I thought just wanted to make sure

I plan on taking my nephew Saturday morning of crossbow and he is 16 do I need to still sit with him or can I put him in a stand a couple hundred yards away? Just want to make sure we are legal. Think we still need the permission slip from parents but just wasn’t sure how far apart we could sit.

Wishing her a speedy recovery
Thanks. This her second go around she just got her smell back end of august when she had it back in January. She’ll sleep for the next 2 or 3 days and act like nothing happened. Just how she is whenever she gets sick.

Just found out my son can go to school even though my one daughter has Covid. She’s old enough to be home alone for a little bit so tomorrow morning I should be on stand.
good luck to those out

I’m now sidelined until the weekend. Youngest daughter just tested positive for Covid. So my little 2 have to stay home the rest of the week. I’ll go out Saturday if I can manage to not get it. 4th time it’s been in the house so I’m sure my luck will run out.

It was nice people from the entire town showed up some never watching volleyball ever. Tons of students showed up. It was nice to see that type of support in such a small town.

Just got back from scouting a piece of permission ground. Customer owns 80 acres. Mostly beef pasture that hasn't been used in a year. Not much to funnel them, but pretty easy to observe from the high ground. It's only 5-6 minutes from my house. We'll see. I picked about 30 deer ticks off my clothes before I got in the truck. That's a good sign, right?
Ticks have been bad by me this year need to treat my clothes again. Had one stuck on my arm and another one on my back yesterday.

I know. My post wasn't meant to be directed at you. Just an observation as a fellow cell cam guy for others to think about and consider.
Your good. It’s always good to have those reminders in my opinion. Get caught up to much on the camera when it’s only pointed at one small area.

That’s my daughters motto and she wonders why I won’t let her test for her actually license yet. Scares the hell out of me she drives like my mom. Lol

Didn’t make it out today tweaked my back a little yesterday so took it easy today. Next two days are doctor’s appointments and wife’s bday so no hunting until Thursday.

My dad and I are both running multiple cams on our properties and if I'm honest I've had several recent hunts with shooters in range and never on cam. Both our properties have been a little dead lately on cams, but in the woods it's shown otherwise.
Just a word of caution to all the cam users out there, to not just rely solely on them for activity indicators.
No I don’t just trying to narrow down a direction of travel for a particular deer and hoping he shows up at the scrape. I watched a buck earlier in the week walk just out of range of my camera by a couple feet and go the opposite way.
im 90% sure I know where this buck is bedding and it’s on private. one camera has kinda told me that info so just hoping this second one confirms it. Sign is there of a big buck so I’m guessing it’s from him.

Scouting went well. Pulled my cell camera and swung past a ridge about 60yrds the opposite way the camera was facing found a bunch of scrapes and rubs so I put up a different trail camera. Went to the spot where the g2 buck lives and found a bunch of huge rubs and a very fresh scrape. Has 6 rubs all the way around the scrapes. So cell camera is at that location. Freshened all the scrapes with doe estrous.
playing it simple. Cell camera goes off I’ll hunt there in the morning if not I’ll hunt the big scrape line.
