Monday and I am ready to get in the woods even with these higher temps and an East wind. Have a great week of hunting. Always wear a safety harness.
I saw flies, mosquitoes, ticks, chipmunks and squirrels. Sweated my ass off on Saturday.
MOnday Morning- Sweaty and Damp- lots of Skeeters- saw one small buck making a scrape at about 100 Yards.
Monday Evening- Hunted with a Thermo Cell. Saw probably 20 doe feeding in a Chestnut Grove. Got picked off while reaching for my bow on a Long Nose Doe with a Button Buck and a Fawn. She was on high alert and when I went to draw she blew and then deer behind her which I never saw started popping up and running off. I should have known better than to try to take a momma doe on HIGH ALERT. I needed to let her pass. Had I let her pass the chance of getting a chip shot at one of the doe that would certainly have followed would have given me a better chance.
I need a more liberal work schedule to report anything! Work all day and by the time I get out it is almost dusk. That's what vacation is for I guess.
I don't even want to know about hunting in this weather. I pretty much stopped hunting the first two weeks years ago when we stopped getting "normal" fall temperatures.
Everything is a week early this year to boot.
Temps are looking better next week. Hopefully I will get out with the inline and put some quick venison in the freezer.
True that, it is freaking hot!!
Yep, too hot to hunt. Plenty of time.....
Friday is looking good...20 degree drop in temps.
Waiting for you !
I'm new to hunting and I know that this Saturday is opening day for small game. Will bow guys get pissed at me for shooting rabbit?
