I saw two on opening morning. The first about 45 yards and in a ton of thick stuff. Didn't even see it's head. That was around 7am. Around 9am I heard something walking. A big doe headed towards me. She was down wind and I was worried she wouldn't make it. She got about 35 yards and froze. I needed her to come about 10 more to be in the clear but she slowly turned around and eased out the way she came. Didn't see anything Friday, Saturday or Sunday either. I couldn't stand another day of the skeeters so I skipped yesterday. Buddy jumped one out of his spot on Sunday mornin goin to his stand. We nearly got blowed out our trees on Sunday in da storm. Screw it, I am headed for Missouri on Thursday. Be nice to be in some much cooler temps with no skeeters. Hopefully I can stick the big one up der.
