Apparently apples are on the menu tonight. Year old buck chewing on some under the other apple tree on the property. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Deer are already on their feet on the far end of the field and I'm guessing they are destroying the apples. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Well once again the forecast has changed from the morning perdiction and I am back on stand for the pm portion. Wind is scheduled to flip 180 degrees while hunting (east to north to west) leaving me only one set that works. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Got all my chores done!!!

October 2 pm 57 degrees NE wind 10 mph Cloudy Rain ending Well I was on the x tonight. Covered up in deer for most of the sit. Young bucks, does, fawns. All feasting on the bounty in the woods. Definitely a lot more acorns dropping in there than I initially thought. Heard them dropping the entire time I was on stand. I think the lack of acorns on the ground when I scouted was purely based on the deer and squirrels scooping them up. About 640ish I put eyes on a stud 9 point that I have on camera for the past couple years. 140+. I never saw him until he was about 35 yards away because of all the foliage. He seemed like he was going to give me a perfect opportunity to chuck an arrow at him. I repositioned myself slightly as he got behind a clump of trees. Of course the doe to my right busts me grabbing my bow, blows and takes off. Buck stops in his tracks behind the tree and literally stands there for thirty minutes. Thirty damn minutes.... Literally ran me out of daylight. Needed one more step. What an encounter! Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I see antlers.... Little buck just emerged from the bedding. At least I know what they look like again! Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Well with the weather I wasn't planning to hunt at all today. What do you know, the forecast changed and so did my plans. NE wind has me sitting on the best oak flat that I have to hunt. Deer in two different fields on the drive here and also bumped two in the soy bean field here on the walk in. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Congrats Joe! First blood award!

October 1- bow opener SW wind 5 mph Partly sunny 69 low 88 high Well what can I say... It was great to be in the woods this morning. Hunted a brand new stand. Lots of fresh sign around. It has all the makings of a great spot. Inside corner, standing corn, three apple trees, Creek bed. Slow morning. Had deer come through the corn this morning but it was way too early to see them.

Lol. Apparently I never set my alarm so I woke up 20 minutes late. I got about 10 steps from the truck before I realized that I needed to grab my bow. It's like riding a bike... Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Me too. Couple hours on stand this morning then headed to work. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Wow! Just like that the season is here. October 1st is a day away. It is almost time for the grind to begin. The marathon also known as deer season. By the sounds of it, my wife isn't real happy to see deer season here. No doubt she enjoys the fishing season and the boat more so than hunting season. My advice... Have a plan and execute it. By plan, I mean a literal plan. Know your sets. Know when to hunt them. Know the what winds are best for them. Be disciplined. Be smart. Be safe.

Not sure if you guys have seen these but I bought three of them the other day. I have two spots that I wish I had a licking branch and this gives me the opportunity to put one within bow shot distance from the stand. https://thelickingstick.com/ Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Need a good weather site for hunting? They do have a app but the desk top version is much better. https://www.wunderground.com/forecast/us/ny/hamlin/43.30,-77.92

Yes but you have to download it to see it.

Some awesome deer Jeff!

Great pics Joe!

Some good ones there, DD!

No but I can't believe the amount of dead ones I have noticed this year. Insane. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
