Forecast looks really good for deer to be moving. Who's going to take advantage of this hard cold front?

I wrestled with this, but decided to take today, tues and wed off to take advantage. I've got a nice buck narrowed down on public. And I feel if I wait till the muzzleloader opener, he'll be long gone or dead.
Yeah will try to capitalize today through Thursday. Hopefully this weather gets something big moving on some public I plan to hit.
Then back to work for the weekend. Everyone enjoy muz opener.

I'll be out this afternoon and tomorrow morning. Good luck yawl. I'm after meat.
I may be wrong but I think the weather may get some bucks cruising.

Can't wait for it to finally feel like Fall. Screw hunting in 80+ degrees, that's for September. I'm excited to hunt this weekend for sure.

Nope. But Saturday will be opening day for me. Won't be missing that.
IMO this is the best week of archery only season. Sure opening weekend in September is nice, but this week is the best weather for deer hunting.

Wind has been shifting some here, but the rain looks to be almost done. Hoping the wind will let up tomorrow morning, I will probably go. Cwd unit, so will be rifle. If the current forecast holds, Thursday and Friday mornings will be the best wind for my most productive stands, I will definitely be going those mornings.

The orange crew comes out this weekend so I'm gone try to be out there Tuesday-Thursday evenings. Only had 1 buck to work my nerves last week so far (didn't like the shot) I was hoping my son would get him Saturday but no luck. Feel like my opportunity is coming soon tho.

Might try Friday evening. But starting Saturday, it's on!
I work third shift (sun-thurs) so I'm going Wednesday Thursday and Friday right after work! I have to stay late tomorrow I know but I'll be home at a decent time to keep an eye out in the back yard plot! Definitely going to be out Friday evening and Saturday morning and afternoon

Got a video the night of the 27th of my best buck scent trailing a doe through a food plot. Now this doesn't guarantee she was in estrus, but that buck was definitely after one particular deer.

I am sitting at the middle school to pick up my son, and I just get a notification on my cell cam, a big bodied wide 8(possibly 4.5 year old) just walked past my camera on a scrapeline about 175 yards from where I took my son yesterday afternoon. He was the third buck on that scrapeline in the past 20 minutes. They are moving midday in this overcast drizzle. I will definitely be out tomorrow morning.
