Who is ready for the "Southern Zone" Oct 16th opener!?!

[Doc]

I dragged the old folding stool up on the archery range today and checked out a few shots from a sitting position. Also, tried a few shots from awkward positions and simulating a few slow draws and other kind of realistic shooting challenges. I always like to throw some reality practice in just to see if I can come up with some realistic scenario that might mess me up.

First thing tommorrow morning, it should be cold enough to throw on a few layers of heavy clothing and then my big old camo cover-alls. That's always a nifty exercise in frustration.

Oh ya all set. 6 stands in place,bow shoots great,first 3 days off. First 2 weeks of nov.off. First 2 weeks of gun off...... Plus my firefighter work hours leave plenty of other days to hunt !

Shooting,sleeping,soup cooking shack built and in place . Trails bush hogged,corn mostly down,freezer empty.

Kids away at college and a wife who does not care how much I hunt and owns farm land.

Trails finished here yesterday...camp Monday...Winter rye planted yesterday.......still practicing from my stand position...need to wear the new boots a bit more but they are GREAT.... I set up some supplies in the blind.... need to wash clothes and find sm. rack to my decoy....and not look out my front door to find 2 very nice bucks feeding 40yrds off the front porch.....It causes a lack of sleep

I'm counting down the days. I'll hunt the first two days then I took Halloween week of sine that seems to be the week I always see deer starting to move around.  ;D

I just have a couple small things to do, so I'll be heading up to the cabin on Wednesday night. Practice a little with the bow, retrieve the SD cards, put a camo skirt on one of the stands and shoot the rifles and ML a bit. I'll be hanging around for Sat., Sunday and Monday morning..... ...I'm about to jump out of my skin I cant contain myself....I want to wish everyone the best of luck...
