Still waiting out here in zone 7. I pulled some cameras today. One small 8pt and a bunch of does.
Gotta Love that first hunt. Not smooth at all..lol.
I thought I did good with my entrance, should of grabbed my canoe, busted my butt and was sweating my ____ off.
I took the long way off the trail to hit another swamp transition, I paid the price.
At my destination, no hot sign but I was running late and needed to set up. I may of set up too close to known bedding as I could see it from just 12' up. I was pretty quiet... I just don't think I was, in your bedroom quiet.
Saw nothin but totally mint to be out there. I have not hunted my own state for 15 years at least. Glad to be back in game.
Pulled the local cam card- no bucks.
