    Got out to the woods. Hung 3 lock on stands. Put 2 in some new areas that I think will pay off. just a few yards off some really nice trails. Only saw 1 deer but it was like 11;00. it was quite breezy and leaves were falling, its gonna be hard to wait til the 6th to get out and hunt. Got the cabin cleaned and ready for season but I couldn't get the dang mower to start so I guess we'll have to deal with the somewhat tall grass, cause I ain't mowing after season starts.

    Took my nephew out for his first ever hunt this weekend. He's 14 and a pretty good shot at a target. The weekend was good, had decent weather, fairly cool and cloud cover. Sat. morning I didn't see anything and Andy saw 2. 1 he wasn't sure what it was and the other a little 4pt. Sat. evening I got in the stand at 4 and had a doe down at 4:30. Andy came and helped me drag it out then went back to his stand. Some time later I was at the cabin and opening the door to get a beer out of the cooler and there's Andy, sayin', "I GOT ONE!, I GOT ONE!" So we take some lights and head to the stand where he shot. Well to cut this short we found very little blood. We tried to just cover the area doing sort of a grid type search but came up empty handed. So we decided to wait til light and try again. So day light comes we skip morning hunt this morning and start lookin for his deer. We were so close but with it being dark we just didn't see him. So here is my nephew wit his first deer ever on his first hunt he's ever been on. Its that 4 pt that he had seen that morning.

    I had to work. The weather here was too bad to sit in a stand anyway. Very windy, rainy and warm... Now today I am off, and it is windy, rainy, and cold... Oh well I have until the end of December to fill my tags.
