Up and at em in this cold wind

[poorhunter]

Debating my sanity. Heading out this morning to a spot I've never hunted on, but I THINK may be a great spot. It's a small 20 acre property that I've wanted to hunt so on a whim I'm going to give it a go. No one has had permission to hunt this place for at least 10 years and there is a 5 acre thicket on the back side that borders some huge pastures. I don't know if I'll find a tree to climb to be able to look into that thicket, but maybe I'd be better off sitting in a pop up blind anyway!

Sure is windy here. Hoping they'll move since it rained yesterday afternoon and most of the night. I'm headed in now. Good luck!

Good luck. Seems like a good, crappy morning to hunt. I love hunting in crappy weather...less crowds and huge potential for that stud to step out. I've found over the years that bigger bucks tend to get out when the weathers bad. Just my experience. I know it's been debated.

Look forward to your pics.

Saw 3 does and tons of good sign. Looking forward to this spot as the season wears on for sure! I see this property as a little sanctuary away from the big leases and other properties that get hit hard all year. It's somewhat isolated from those places by the big pastures on one side and a highway on the other...kind of a funnel of sorts between them. Lots of browse and thick cover to hide in and the slope faces south so I expect they will love to soak in the sun when it gets cold. Speaking of which I didn't get cold really. There's a drop off that runs along the whole property and the wind was not near as bad as I thought down in there. No bucks seen, but I like the looks of things.

I'm going out tomorrow, coldest day so far. Yesterday the wife commented on the temps. Going out after lunch for a while.

Covering a field now. Hot coffee in a thermos and an apple for the day. Forgot my Walkers ear protection!!!!! I'm sure my tinnitus will love that if I get to shoot!

Have the same problem. Have hearing aids that are only good for TV and amplifying forest sounds. One shot doesn't count for me. Just hoping to get a shot tomorrow!
