October 4 am 46 degrees Partly cloudy S wind 5-10 Certainly seemed like a good morning to be in the woods. Apparently I was wrong. I got to my parking spot this morning. Shut my headlights off and pulled into the field. Got out of my truck and something was stinking. Grabbed my flashlight and someone dumped salmon carcasses in the field and I drove right through them. The stink is still on my truck btw. I got all my gear on and noticed that the field wasn't 100 percent cut yet. I didn't want to walk through and damage the soy beans so I packed up my stuff and went around the block. Long walk in. Of course the only deer I see all day is when I was walking in. Buck. On the edge of the beans. Big enough rack to see in the dark. Tough to judge. Got into the and got situated. Reached into my jacket pocket and took a thorn under the nail of my middle finger. Spent the next five minutes trying to remove it in the dark. Heard a mess of turkeys but never laid eyes on them. A fox. Squirrels. Geese. No deer from stand. Checked a camera on the way out. 3000 pictures of a thorn bush branch. Ughh Three fresh scrapes on the walk out though. The one pictured is historically always there. A very long morning.... Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Anyone looking for a seat cushion check this one out. My old one was a bit worn out and it was time for an upgrade. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00QMT55HG?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

October 3 am 45 degrees Partly sunny Wsw wind 5mph Deer everywhere this morning. Saw them on the drive there, on the walk to the stand, and while in the stand. Only a couple of small buck and the rest flatheads. Easily a 25+ deer day. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

October 2 pm 55 degrees Full moon Cloudy Rain NW 5 mph becoming S 15 Thought is was going to be a great night to sit. Got in stand about 430ish. Chose to sit on the oak flat and protect the acorns from trespassers. Had a young buck come through almost immediately. Then about 5 mother nature flipped the script. Wind changed from 5 mph nw to 15 mph ssw. Because of the wind change I got out of that stand and ran over to the another stand close by. Just as I got situated the skies opened up and I sat in the rain for the next two hours. Never saw another deer for the rest of the pm except for the six flatheads I saw walking out feeding in the field next to my truck. Rain or shine... Not many places I would rather be.

Sitting here getting everything organized in my pack, staging my bow, and picking through hunting clothes to go in the bin. 'Ill be honest. It doesn't feel like deer season starts tomorrow. 2020 has just flown by even in the water down version we are forced to live in. I certainly don't feel prepared. But maybe I never do. I always feel like there was more I should have done but then again its impossible to anticipate everything. Adapting on the fly and making the right adjustments is what it is all about anyways. Early season always leads to opportunity but I have yet to shoot a buck in the first two weeks of October since they move the opening day to October 1 and last year was a perfect example of that. Good luck to everyone. Let the fun begin.

Thats awesome!

It was a game changer for me for sure. Im not terribly allergic but still I never enjoy getting it. I always seem to get it in august and sept checking stands. I always wear long sleeves, pants, and gloves now. Once im home i scrub my arms and hands with dawn dish soap. Dish soap does a great job of breaking down oils.
