Congrats on the planter! My wife cannot believe that I have never been to an auction.

I'm excited for you Blade! Hope you shank a big buck!

Similar thing happened to me a few years ago. I had my daughter in the blind with me during bow season. I believe she was 7 or 8 at the time. We had 2 large does walking in and I told her that if one presents a shot, I was going to take one. Just before they entered the plot, the does lifted their heads and went on full alert. A few seconds later they boogied down the hill. Abi asked me, "Did we do that?" "No, they were looking up the hill, something else spooked them", I replied. No sooner did I say that, a pack of coyotes ran past our blind at about 50 yards. They were howling, and cackling like coyotes do. "What was that?" Abi asked I said coyotes and at that moment I saw that same wide-eyed look Kevin. :jaw: Abi asked about 50 questions in about 30 seconds but never asked to leave.

Here is my scariest moment. http://www.realtree.com/forums/lounge/102091-i-had-first.html

Come on Dan, cut me some slack. I know what Dead Down Wind is, I use their body soap. His DDW acronym threw me for a loop. He should have been more clear. You get these people who are using their phones for this page and they forget how to type.

What is DDW??? I did a Google search and all I found was Digestive Disease Week.

And he got banned for wearing Mossy Oak in the picture. No not really!

I would think that the river keeps things kinda warm around your place. Do you normally get a late frost?

Sept. 27th here. I am stoked as well. Will be building a ground blind with the kids on Sunday. Go do some scouting, that will help scratch the itch.

That will get the deer's attention!

So you are just down the road from Matt then.

Nice! Go stand on top of one of the sheds behind you. Take that platform and put it in the woods.

80+ here in northern New York. Feels like summertime. With bow season 2 weeks away we need some cold!

Yabba Dabba Doo!!! Good for you Chris!! Get some rest and heal up quick, bow season is just around the corner.

I havn't heard it yet, but its Jason Aldean its probably good.

Ameeeen Brother!

LOL! And invite us to the BBQ!

I picked up about $200 worth of lumber yesterday. The kids and I are going to build a new box blind this weekend. I will post pics when we are done.

I would say yes it does. When things get damp smell intensifies. That is one reason why a deer or dog will lick his nose, a damp nose is a better scent receptor. Like Shoobee said, wash down good and watch the wind. It probably would hurt to bring your bottle of scent killer and spray down again in the stand.

Welcome aboard Matt. Are you at Fort Drum? If so you are in my neck of the woods.

Isn't honey boo-boo the end result in your britches if you eat too much honey?
