Chilly and damp this a.m. Be safe and enjoy the wonderful creation all around us.

Wind on accuweather always seems to be way off. Says gusts up to 14 for 7 a.m. and it's dead. I need to get a hunting app, as I've been saying I'm going to. They any better for wind?

Wind is dead here too. Nice and cool though. Only second time hunting this spot, hoping the 10pt shows up!
Good luck everyone.

Saw 2 just at daylight, not enough light to tell if they were does or state records so didn’t even raise the gun.

It’s blowing stuff sideways here. Wanted to get the 8 yo to the range before the yahoos come out but way too windy and light rain again. Avoiding cleaning my garage(s) plural. 6 bays between the two and can’t fit a car in there? In my defense, the lower garage has high humidity I need to deal with drain pipe collapsing and the upper garage is holding 150+ 2x12s and 50 4x4x12s along with all power/yard tools and kids bikes.

Up a tree on camp Lejeune in the management area. Stumbled upon this hardwood edge with some fresh sign and a young pine thicket with scrub oaks. Darn wind cant make up its mind. Here until dark

Was out working on a blind around noon and heard shots from the direction of my neighbor, so I assume he got one. Also saw a doe crossing the highway around mid-morning and lots of fresh sign since yesterday.

This wind will start dying down after 5 pm, could be a good evening to be out......

Got in this morning at 7:00 a.m. At 8:50 two does came through, both to small. 15 minutes later a button buck came through. Got down at 11:00 and went to pull some cards. Saw lots of scrapes along a creek bottom. First ones I've seen.

Nice breeze in my face, & plenty of culled sweet potatoes on the ground.

Not a bad set up for the first gun hunt of the year for me. Only two packs of venison burger left in the freezer, so I’m not picky today!

Seen more deer tracks walking in than I have ever seen here before.

Was just now able to climb up into my ladder stand. Had to stand at the base of the tree for a few minutes, waiting for the small deer that was already here to move off.

Good problem to have......

Walking to the stand got settled in and a nice young 6 was already in the field. He was behind some brush in the picked corn, so we hid from each other on my walk in. Hope his daddy or granddaddy comes out a little later?

Tucked up close to a thicket with the stick and string this evening, saw a good one headed this way this morning so hopefully he’s still in here.

Climbed the stand at 6 and at 605 had a 4ptr and a cowhorn come in. Cowhorn made a scrape on his way out. Man I love this sport!!

Seen 5 does and 1 buck....of course the buck came out just far enough away and close enough to dark that I couldn't make out how many points he had.
I could see the frame though, and he was about as wide as his ears.

Got away late, climbed a lockon on a hay field about 6pm. Saw 18. Couple lil fellers worrying does. One big feller in easy rifle range, but that don’t mean jack in Orange Co this time of year...

Seen plenty of deer this morning and one buck this evening. Was nice to hunt without breaking a sweat for a change.
