I must be anxious....

[TeeBugg]

Its 3:04 am and im wide awake. Ready to sit in the stand. Coffee brewing already and i wont meet up with hunting buddy until 6. Guess ill surf the boards and stir up some trouble!

[crappyice]

Don't worry, you are not alone. I'm out the door in 15 minutes- only benefit of being a "near-the-city" hunter...no traffic at this time of day

[TeeBugg]

Watching some strange movie on sy fy.....thats how bored i am! Our spot is literally 8 minutes from my house. Its a good spot and has already produced deer so im hoping it pans out again!

My spot is about 1:45 away, then a good 30 min SLOW hike....I drive past a lot of deer on the way to this area but it my favorite place to be

I'll be giving the old man his wake up call in 30 min lol

[sits in trees]

I'll be out in my stand under the moon lite wondering why the hell im out here so early. Its the full moon.

Up at 4, out the door and walk to stand at 545... it is 45 degrees here...... was 43 when I went to bed around 1030pm.

up at 4 am most  morning being retired and a old fart of 72 on Nov 5....I love the 5:45 am walk  to the stand, then seeing the light start to come on, and then the first sign of daylight. It is 42 degrees here this morning and should start to get better and better, seeing more sign of ground scrape, and the fawns have been now kicked out my the adult doe's. I think the last week of Oct, will be the hot one for the bucks chasing the doe's and the doe's are still just getting ready...

47 here. Getting my facepaint on and some coffee. Rechecking my pack is filled with everything i need. If i see one this morning itll be a win!

[nybuckboy]

Up and eating some oatmeal with maple syrup. Jumping in the shower in a moment and then out the door. Spot only a few minutes away by 4 wheeler. Good luck to all.

I'll be heading out this AM for the first time in over a week. Its so bright out I don't think anyone will need a flashlight to walk in. Temps are good, wind is perfect, hopefully they'll be up and moving this morning. Good luck !!

[fasteddie]

I have a 10 mile ride to take in a few minutes . Being optimistic and taking the trailer with me .

[agross]

Good luck to all and soooo jealous of you guys that have property so close.  Mine is 4 hours away and takes planning with wife and two young kids (planning that she doesn't go crazy when I want to go for a long weekend and she is stuck home with the kids.)

 

Keep us posted.  I will be checking in during soccer practice.

Got in the stand well before light. 5 minutes after it was light enough to see, had one blowing behind me. Not downwind nor did i move a muscle for about the first hour. Who knows. On a bright note, something big left some big hoofprints in my mock scrape between thursday and today

Well I failed miserably this morning...I over slept! lol. Dammit I hate when I do that. Was a long week at work and haven't got more than 4 hours of sleep each night so I was a zombie. I won't do it tomorrow morning though!!
