:cry: Opening day was yesterday, but I didn't have the opportunity to get out until this afternoon. I climbed up into my tree stand about 2 pm, about 6:30 I saw my first deer. Shortly afterwards about 12-14 walked down the creek below my blind.......all does and fawns. It was just getting so dark that I was having trouble seeing in the shadows when I noticed a buck hanging close to a tree line and moving in the same direction the doe were. I couldn't see well enough to determine how big it was.
It is still too hot, in my opinion, and the skeeters almost ate me alive. They were so bad I thought I would have to stop by the emergency room for a transfusion, and the size of them puppys was unbelievable.
Maybe next Saturday I can hunt early and and the weather will cool a bit. Boy, what I wouldn't give for 40-50 degree weather.
