11-30 Bloody Saturday

[timekiller13]

It’s cold. It’s clear and it’s still. Temp at cabin says 17. Drinking coffee and preparing to head in. Deer were on the move yesterday evening on the drive up. Must have seen 100.

These types of mornings are why I hunt. The stars are stunning right now. Can’t wait to watch the woods come alive.

Good luck everyone. It finally feels like November!!

Getting ready to hit the hill myself. Should be a good day but yesterday was one of the slowest we have seen. Be safe out there and soak it all in, the beauty of the woods coming alive on a cool crisp morning is priceless. Good Luck and Happy Hunting

Up a tree in Allegany. 21 degrees and windy. First time in this stand this year. Not much on camera lately but we'll see what happens.

In for the morning. Best weather yet of the season. Going to be a beautiful morning to enjoy God’s creation. Good luck yall and be safe

24 degrees and calm in Warren. Wife got up early this morning and made a big breakfast for me. I'm dressed in my cold weather bibs for the first time this season, and by the look of the weather forecast I'll be wearing them all week, and that's a good thing. An extended period of cold weather right now is just what we needed for deer hunting. Dress warm, eat a hot breakfast, and get hunting! Good luck to all!

I'm up.

Broke out my knit and fur toboggan because it's cold.

I had retired this hat from hunting years ago when an owl mistook my head for limb chicken.

But it keeps your head warm....

14 degrees where I’m at, clear and calm like everywhere else. I’ve got 2 doe tags left and I’ve got until noon to fill them. No doubt the deer are gonna die today. Doesn’t get much better than this

Edit: may not make it to where I intended. The initial ascent has my hips and feet screaming from yesterdays pack out

Cold here, nothing moving. Seen a few birds but not the first squirrel.

Edit: are there places to duck hunt within earshot of the draw bridge in Wilmington? I did hear some shots sounds like

Looking like a beautiful day, cold @ 21, clear & dry. No movement yet. Quiet as a church graveyard. Love mornings like this!

 

[bwfarms]

As the light cracks I see a deer run down thinking a buck was chasing. Then I noticed this girl bedded down.

Don't know how I got in without a blow... oh wait! It's because I wear Old Spice.

Gonna still hunt my way through a big section. Hoping to find some doe bedding or maybe a pig if I'm lucky. Glad to gave a cold morning finally.

Absolutely beautiful morning. No deer yet but squirrels are very active. Wife has to leave this morning to meet some friends with my daughter so I opted for a box stand closer to the house so I can ease back to watch the boys. Good luck to everyone.

 

[gobblerstopper]

Checking in but probably won’t see crap!
Thank you Lord for letting me be out here on this beautiful morning, good luck.

 

[bwfarms]

Ol girl still there chewing her cud. I saw deer run across driveway this morning but this might be a sign yall need to stay on stand until noon.

 

[berryman26]

Busted out my big parka… very quiet cold morning so far.

 

[FishHunt]

The truck said 23° when I got out of it this morning. Already saw a small deer right at legal light. Hunting with my 78 year old father in law today and he's as restless as a toddler. I might just take a nap. Thank God for hunting opportunities, Buddy heaters and enclosed boxes.

Deer are on their feet. I’ve got 14 in here now. 4 bucks 10 does

 

[1stgenHunter]

Just filled those last two doe tags. They did exactly what they were supposed to. I love hunting these mountains.

 

[Lucky Clucker]

Hunting for a little

The fact you are seeing activity and I'm sitting on top of bedding goes to show it's never really been the moon or temps.

 

[Wncbowhunter]

In a blind this am. Not that tough anymore. 21° wind chill of 6°. 2 driving in is all so far. Deer sighting have went way down past few days. No where near chasing like a week ago.
Did I mention I hate hunting in the wind. Tend not to see much.

 

[Homebrewale]

Up a tree on Jordan. Forgot it was Saturday when the duck hunters are out. I went deep towards the lake. A boatload of duck hunters are hitting their calls hard. My new hunting jacket and pants were delivered yesterday so today is my first hunt with them. Warm and cozy so far. I really like the chest pockets for your hands.

 

[TobyScreams]

At work, living vicariously. Yall post some good pics…

 

[bwfarms]

There's 2 behind her I didn't see until now. I see them in the last pic. Can you find them?

 

[turkeyfoot]

Calm and 25 here in SC have yet see even a squirrel maybe they waiting on sun I know I am. No shots for a Saturday morning is kinda odd. I know them fellas in camp wasn't sitting at no gates by 4am this morning they all rolled out late

 

[bwfarms]

Now they are getting up and feeding.

 

[302cj]

I ran off the whole herd at 6. Nothing came back yet.

 

[timekiller13]

Just broke my record for most deer seen at one time at this spot. Got 22 in here now. 6 bucks and 16 does.

I see what looks like ears and possibly a rump behind a tree far left in the pic. Three bedding together may just be normal but a lone doe bedding within a few yards of a fresh scrape is worthy of watching long time

What you think is a rump is a large hunk of quartz.
