I’ve been kind of a slacker lately with the site and with posting the hunting logs. Quite honestly it has been because the deer movement has been non-existent for me. I’m not sure what happened. Apparently someone flipped off the switch.
I’ve been going over in my head, about a thousand times, all the places that we have stands and where the best location would be for the chase phase. I think one of the best spots we have for the rut is the spot that I sat tonight and still it just didn’t work out. I don’t know why. I was starting to think that maybe we over hunted the property a little in the last week and that could have something to do with it. Time will tell.
There is no use in debating on whether I need to give the property some time off or not, because this week with the time change, I can’t hunt after work anyway, so there won’t be any hunting for me until next Saturday. I’m looking forward to it, and with the new moon that should be in effect, I am anticipating the hunt like crazy. Eventually my luck has to turn around. Doesn’t it???
I have vacation all next week so hopefully with me being able to put some serious time in the woods I can catch a little break and turn this thing around. I have my first morning spot picked out already and if that doesn’t work by early afternoon I’m switching to a stand that has been sitting dormant for quite some time.
Bottom line-hopefully this non-hunting week turns into some serious action next week. Lets hope so!

I’ll cross my fingers about next week. It does look like it is going to get colder and possibly snow, so that could help.
Come back deer! Arthur needs a buck!
I think things are pointing toward next week being a great week in the woods! Keep positive and stay ready when you’re out there. Seize every and any opportunity!
