It all depends on how the upcoming “last weekend” of crossbow season goes.  If it’s anything like this past one, then it’s looking like I’m going to be hunting our home farm this year.  I had been hunting my parents farm, around 20 miles away, for the last (7) years (except (2) years ago when a blizzard stranded me in southern CA).  Last year, I didn’t even see a deer over there, on opening day of gun, nor did I last Sunday afternoon with my crossbow.  
 

There’s been a lot more deer action around home this year, where I have a much better selection of foodplots available to them including some excellent field corn.

Will once again be hanging 20ft up a tree deep in the river bottom of Letchworth.

Yeah I'm ready. We lost one oldtimer this year which will put a damper on things. 88 years still going strong and had an accident in his barn. Doing something he shouldnt of be doing. My buddy Steve is a detective and is on a huge case, he can't make it. My camp usually has 6 hunters we will have 5. We will have a 14 year old up here hunting with his grandfather! Weather looks real sketchy next week. Stands are set everyone knows where they are going.
