I WISH it were only raining on and off. It's pouring here and isn't letting up at all. Today is a washout. ![]() __________________ "A bad day of hunting is better than a good day of work"

I went out this morning... I should've stayed in bed. I got soaked walking to my location, and then it basically poured like hell for almost 4 hrs straight. This blows!!!!!!!!!! ![]()
Now, the only question is, do I go out this evening? I don't know. It's supposed to keep raining all day. David __________________ NJ... Where fun comes to die!

Ok, after debating, pacing my house, pacing my yard, writing that rain sucks on here, I drove to my spot, sat, waited for the rain to let up.
Brought my climber because I found a new tree I would like to check out Mr. buck from. Used a few tricks Tommy taught me to try and get mr buck to show his rack. After 2 hours of sitting in a tree with on and off downpours, I heard a little noise and saw Mr. buck 60-70 yards in my bait pile. He never saw me, but the rain started coming down big time, a few thunder sounds (could have been my heart pounding out of my chest, Ill never know) , and he slowly walked back into the heavy cover. At that point it felt like I was thrown into a swimming pool, so I came down from the tree and went home. Most exciting day I've ever had in the woods yet. Its nice putting work into a spot and actually seeing a buck like that. Amazing thing I found out is my 1 year old climber from walmart has a weld / piece of tube metal shearing from the area where the cable meets the stand. Looks like if I stayed in the stand all day it might have fallen apart on me. I guess thats what I get for buying a stand from walmart. Now I need a new climber, might check out one of the summits you guys are always talking about. |
