Nice. There is no lull, just a change in movement and other variables. GPS research always show bucks move more in october than september, so that's a good thing.

I'm starting to see more movement on cams, but it's at night, or an hour before I would be heading in. I think this lull people speak of is just the deer taking a smoke break from over um, err, copulating.

No. I'm not the sociopath who likes to take creepy pictures. He may have 100 different accounts on here, but I'm not one of them. However, I think they took a picture of me while I was walking out. I got this odd feeling and when I turned around they were out at a field edge with phones in hand watching me.

Ok I decided I am going to hunt the lull exclusively.   And only during temps over 70.   Too easy during the cold rut.

Well and I just didn’t want to sit home.   Wind is good for an easy entry sit.  But yes bold move.  

[Team Hoyt]

Im in, not expecting much but it's nice to be out

[Judoka95]

I'm in. Good wind for the field stand and tomorrow looks like rain all day.

Thanks.   Momma and fawn got first pass.   Who knows.  Wind is good and easy entry so no harm.

The doe groups are moving.  7 deer so far in range.

 Damn, had a deflection off of a rose bush and spined her. Had to put a follow-up in the pump station. Not exactly how it was supposed to go down

What does it cost to replace a cape vs mount on the one it came on

It's costs me $125 per cape for tanning. It will cost him this plus the price of a new cape. Large, early season, shorter haired capes are the most sought after and expensive to replace. A cape of this size can easily go for $150-200 green. Should be able to get it for cheaper than that though.
