What's everyone feeling for the opener, finding the acorns in the hardwoods or ag fields?
I'm a little torn with cooler weather.

Same here. Soccer, squirrel hunting and scouting for the first mature acorns in my neck of the woods will be my focus this weekend. ANYTHING to be outside in the cool dry air. Few things make me happier than cool dry air with a light northerly breeze.I'll be set up in a chair on the edge of a field watching my son play soccer
That's my kinda plan, except the work part hahaI plan on sticking a doe early in the morning and dragging it 20 yards to my truck. They have been wearing out the acorns in the edge of the yard lol. Dang old chocolate lab just looks at the deer instead of running them out of the yard and my wife has had enough of them eating the hostsa plants the last few years. Maybe the survivors will get the hint that it's safe to eat acorns but eat the hosta and get stuck by an arrow. After that off to work by 9
I'm gonna hit some public in Ky tomorow afternoon then head on to Ohio Friday morning to start scouting. Depending on what the crops look like I'll either go to the fields or go find some oaks in the hollers
That one buck is a wide jokerGood luck in both states! I'll be a week or so behind on Ohio, but I'd bet this cold front will have them moving in daylight. Dad says white oaks have been dropping up there for 2 weeks. I was there 3 weeks ago and did a camera check. Had some resident up & coming 2 & 3 year old bucks moving in daylight or right on the cusp of daylight from mid August on. Around the second week of October is when the big guys begin moving back in. Does with fawns keep them chased out during summer. My place is deep woods hills & hollers with a river bottom & ag about a mile down at the mouth of the main hollow.
