Question on the above regulation: does an orange hat alone meet the requirement? Because it seems like you only have to fulfil one of the three to be legal - obviously you don't have to fulfil all three, or we'd be decked out in both solid and patterned orange, which is a fashion faux pas lol.

Your fine with an orange hat.

Becoming cloudy


Got into my make shift ground blind early. Clear some stuff and brushed it in a bit better. Almost immediately I had deer in and out of the woods feeding. About 4 ish I had a button buck walk up behind me and got within 10 feet of me before he spooked. 4:00 the deer began to pour out of the woods. Saw 20+ total including 4 bucks.
About 415ish I put eyes on a mature buck but I only had a short window to make it happen. Probably a 5 count. Clean miss. About 90 yards. There's a few possibilities but im guessing (and hoping) I just rushed the shot. Of course now I'm thinking about heading to the range on Monday to make sure it wasn't the gun and it was all me.

Good luck guys!!  I passed a few does up last night w the muzzleloader. They’ve been hitting the food a little earlier since we got some cold and snow.  In a different stand tonight hoping they come off a brushy hill into a green field.  Took the bow out tonight for a change of pace.

Damn wind made for a cold, cold sit this afternoon but the action was hot. Probably the best sit of 2022. Deer we're on the feet early looking for one thing... food. I saw over 30 including 7 bucks. 3 of the bucks were mature (the giant bodied big beams and no points that I have seen at least a dozen times this year, 10 point that I shot at yesterday, and an absolute stud 8 pt).
No shots fired! Gonna change up the approach tomorrow and get a bit aggressive. I need a better angle and hopefully get a better shot window.

Back at it again for the afternoon. Came in here late this morning and brushed in a quick ground blind in a different spot. Different spot for a different wind. With the ground being frozen I was able to drive back here and do it. Wind seems a little goofy with the gusts but hopefully it maintains w or nw. Fingers crossed.
