In my favorite hunting stand bright and early after sun up.

40 to 50 yds and darned if I could find my real tree, rubber coated, 10 x 20 power, anti-glare coated lense looking glass. Probably because I couldn't find my eyeglasses which is the reason I couldn't see the phone power button in-turn creating a smudge, on the camera lense from a finger print, causing a slightly less than, perfect picture.

From what I 'could' see, no sign of estrus but ain't they sooooo darned cute???😁

Raining like the proverbial cow and flat rock when I shot these 3 from my #2 hunting stand at 5:15ish.

C & R of course, cause I don't have my license, but an easy 30 to 40 yd shot if ya can see clearly, through a big finger print smudge on the sight lense.

Dam it, knew I forgot to do something today. But I suppose I should be happy I found my eye glasses.

Sorry to say, for the 'rut hunters', still no sign of estrus.

Good luck, be safe and remember C & R..... they're just so darn cute.

Went out for a morning hunt. Even though it wasn't supposed to, it drizzled all morning in the SW corner of the state. For my 4 hour sit, I was rewarded with zero deer sighted. 

Although not archery per se, I invite a retired state trooper to hunt the senior rifle season. He came out Thursday morning and Friday evening, but saw nothing.

He was to come out this evening too, but did not. At 5:30, two antlerless (what is legal for seniors) came out of the woods and fed to within 10 yards of the blind I had set up for him (I can see it from the house). To add insult to injury, while one continued to feed, the other one laid down right in front of the blind. They stayed for 45 minutes before being joined by another.

Just goes to show...

I hunted all morning on Thursday old man doe......zero deer...came back to my vehicle...and 4 does in the landowners front yard.... 50 yards from my van... at high noon lol.  I'm having a swell season....lol.    It's about time to pick up my .22 and start swacking squirrels....then I'm guaranteed to see deer...lol

My wife punched her buck tag last night. Watched it for about an hour feeding and near last light it worked into range. Put a clean shot on it, fell over 50 yards later before it could enter the thick stuff.

Despite my best efforts I can’t get the photo to load in correct ordination. Everyone should be able to understand.

Congrats. That is a dandy buck.

Dandy buck, congratulations. 👍


Try an edit and rotating such photos then saving. Sometimes that will fix the problem.

Still a great photo.
