Play it by ear, if you think you can arrow a good one climb a tree, if not race!

I missed the opener last year becuase I almost lost my left eye in a bunjee stap accident while loading the dang truck to go.

I generally skip either the first weekend or the second weekend mostly because of how hot it can be. I let the weather decide.
I'd just watch the weather. It may not cooperate anyway. If the Hi temp is much over the low 80's I stay home. If it rains I'll be there though.

Call me backwoods but I would never miss a hunt to go run... Heck the only time I do run is to reposition quickly on a herd lol.

Photo Album

I went today to move my camera and put new batteries in it. I usually like to ride an ATV or something to the exact tree I'm gonna put it but recently I've had a problem with that. The other hunters on the farm are following my tracks to find my camera b/c I won't tell them where I'm getting my photos. $\:D$ So today I decided to walk in to a spot I thought a big deer was bedding in. I was getting pics of him in the field below the area and figured this was probably exactly where he beds. I was fooling with the camera and stepped on a stick. I then heard something move. I looked up and the deer had stood up just 20 yards from me. He was looking the other way and man I could have thumped him!!!! I'm still not sure if I would shoot this particular deer. I think he is 4.5 and about 140ish. I really want my mom to shoot him but man I got fired up being that close to a big buck today.

I still have no idea what redneck sport I'm gonna go with that weekend! $\:D$

Go ahead and run. I will stop by one of your cameras as I drag that big boy out of the woods Saturday and get you a close up pic of him. $\:\)$

If you are sitting in your stand thinking of racing you may as well go race...what you don't want to do is be racing and thinking of sitting in your stand! lol
