Note to self - if doing all day sit and 75 degrees, take some shorts and a fan. This blind is a frigging sauna!

Doe and fawn on the plot going on 1 hour. Can't open window for breeze. Killing me smalls!

5 coyotes, 4 does, 3 live bucks and 2 dead bucks on the back of 2 vehicles both dang good bucks and the biggest was taken by the neighbor lady.

Fortunately we have a little breeze going today so the windows have been open.
First buck of the evening just came to the feeder. Oops, make that two. Gone.
It’s the magic hour.

I heard from the lease south of me that one of the guys for the third year in a row shot the first dink buck that walked out this morning, loaded it in his truck, and went home. They’re not sure if he doesn’t have the patience to wait or just doesn’t like the others on the lease.

I saw one with one 4" antler today at the processor.

He might be a meat hunter, some people don't care about antlers. I get it, they don't really taste that great.

Edit - 4" may be a gift, likely two or three.

I don’t really know the guy, so I can’t say what his thought process might be.

My question for anyone that truly don’t care about horns is why not just shoot a doe?

Herd culling.

Activity all around me today. My target buck alternated between chasing does and running off a smaller buck that kept returning. I was set up in the wrong spot today, but it was a great day just watching everything. I’ll be trying again tomorrow.
