I have a LOCBA meeting tonight so no stand time for me tonight. Knowing that I went and hung a new set when I got out of work. Im typically an edge or a fringe hunter and this set is deep in the middle of the woods. Primary bedding all around me. No humans ever venture this deep. Not even the trespassers lol. I actually had to get adjoining landowners permission for access. I needed a back door entrance in order for it to work and this was it. Set was hung for northerly winds so I will have to pick my days wisely but gun season I should get plenty of chances to use it.
October 31 pm 59 degrees Variable wind Cloudy with occasional rain shower Slow up until about 500 and then the deer were on their feet. Maybe they were waiting for the rain to pass before they got out of their beds. 18 deer seen from the stand tonight including 4 bucks. And another 7 seen on the walk out in the adjacent field. I witnessed a hell of a buck fight between 2 1.5 year old bucks within 10 yards of my stand. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
