Not getting real excited about this weekend based on the weather forecast. Very warm and windy.

Definitely didn't say I wasn't going, just that I'm not looking forward to the warmth and winds. I've seen bucks chasing for 3 weeks, missed a good buck and passed on a few small bucks. I'll be out there, but a man can still dream about a perfect opening weekend.

yeh wont be able to hang them long thats for sure. kill and clean early so tha meat doesnt go bad on ya. don't mind the acorns i just bury myself up in the woods around some big white oaks. wind isnt fun for hearing but just play the direction and it can make or break the hole day.

Even though there are a lot of acorns, I'm actually going to sit over a field opening morning just to try to catch a buck chasing into open space. Sit in the same stand almost every year and can't remember the last time I came up empty on seeing a buck.

I've told at least a hundred people that I can't remember an opening weekend that I didn't sweat at least once.

My brother n law arrowed a monster this evening. I'll post pics when I get them. Ahhh rut. Kevin I wasnt dogging you I was trying to get us all pumped. I'm going to sit a while before work in the morning. I have not killed a deer yet dispite getting to hunt some great places. BTW brother n law killed that buck near his house and had never seen it before.

I am pumped brother, no doubt about that. I think I just still have a wind complex from living in Wyoming for a year  Look forward to seeing pics of that monster. Hopefully we will all have one to match after this weekend.

By the way, I saw the "limping deer" for the first time this morning, he was slipping up a grassey draw at 98 yds. (I ranged him Sloughboy). I have only seen him on gamecam until today. If he makes the same mistake in the morning, I'll be waiting for him. The "dance" continues. Here is a picture of him from last year.

Go afield with a good attitude, with respect for the wildlife you hunt and for the forests and fields in which you walk. Immerse yourself in the outdoor experience. It will clense your soul and make you a better person. - Fred Bear
