Got in the stand before daylight this was on Friday morning. Around 9:30 or so I start dozing off. I’m fighting it real bad. But at some point I couldn’t anymore. After 30 minutes or so I’m awakened to all kinds of crunching and a big pop to my right. Well it startled me and I jerked my head up...

My son is crying that daddy will be gone hunting. I’m going to catoosa 19-21. Wish I could take him he’s 9 and me and a buddy will be in a tent. It’ll be cold and no room at all. Plus I’ve started him bird hunting but not deer. And this ain’t a hunt for teaching. I’ll take him local when I get...
