Fletch Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Back in #fromtheground over the swamp. 30 and sunny, slight breeze. I’m determined to get a doe outa this swamp so giving it one more night. I prolly should be at my state stand by the corn but 7 minute drive beats 50 minute drive lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait to get up there for the last few days of bow and then the gun opener. Things are definetely heating up. Before i shot the doe three younger deer were racing past me,chasing is happening. I walked past a freshened scrape dragging my doe out. We got some snow around 8 a.m. and there was not a flake in the scrape around noon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BizCT Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Dad said he saw a 4pt dogging a doe from 7-730am both under 30yds but he passed. 4pt made a scrape. After they left he grunted per my suggestion and a bigger buck came in and he shot it at 810am. 5 or 6pt he thinks at 42yds. He gave it 2.5hrs so far I’m gonna get dressed and go meet him to track Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkNo recovery. Will update journal later with pics and story Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nytracker Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Out in 8y alot of tracks from last night. Most have snown in them . Brisk north west wind somebody worked a couple of my scrapes up. Packed in a parka and bibs for the sit . More like late season. Truck said 26 degrees ... pretty steady wind . 1/2 mile up the road there was a pretty nice buck out on a field by himself south facing slope. Feeding along.

E J Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 I can hear the flock of turkey heading my way. I saw their tracks heading into the neighbor's corn on my way in. Must be it's time to start heading towards their roost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SDS Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 And for those of you wondering, here’s the Mr. Buddy for the ground blind. Little propane tank on high gets you about three hours. I’m using a baranette pop up blind. I can’t strip down but I’ll say that I was comfortable a couple weeks ago with just a jacket and base layer.
