Took a minnie nap woke up to nothing.

In stand late. Crockett and I thought we'd outsmart these bucks by doing a mid-morning hunt. Saw eight does driving to land at 8:25. I don't know what good I'm going to be, got to cough some and I need to blow my nose a lot. My sinuses are burning!

10 More minutes, then time to shutdown.

I am hunting at the crossing, where Davey Crockett took two does last weekend. I believe the deer can sense lingering smell of death in area so they stay away.

I don't know what's worse, snorting or waving around a white tissue.

Ah...nature. Just watched a very young woodpecker with my binoculors. Come 5:30 and the hunt will be over. Hopefully I see something soon. Geez my sinuses are killing me.I did bring tissues!

If I was a deer I wouldn't go out in this windt weather. And it is wicked cold, even with the sun out.

Isn't this pretty?

Crockett tells me that I am supposed to sit here and appreciate the outdoors, but how much outdoors can a person take? A tree is a tree, and then another tree. I think there should be some kind of deer fashionshow. To sit here for three or four hours without seeing a thing drives me crazy!

Noticed when I put out taste test, old corn sitting around, not a good sign

Just got in stand. Not sure if I will c anything, too windy. In stand without feeder. Put out some taste test mix that Crockett put together.

It's raining. Betcha any minute it will be snowing.

No ones coming for breakfast. Oh my toes are so cold.

So cold and sleepy.

Great starting to sprinkle. What smart buck is going to come out in this weather?

Crockett got me this Mossy hand muffle this week. A blessing. No gloves my hands are like toast. Feet, not so much. Do they make muffles for them?

I need a tissue!!!

In stand, out, no shelter from what feels like 20 mph winds. Don't know how I am going to keep quiet with all my snot snorting and drip cough.

Sicker than a dog(not really understand that saying, makes no sense, have we ever seen a sick dog. Going out in five minutes, 40 degrees, windy. The only thing positive, rained last night and pitch dark. Not looking forward to sitting on a wet cold seat. Crockett asked me what I wanted to do. What was I thinking? Nice warm bed, blankets up to my neck. Hmm...

Sorry guys, was too sick to get out there this am. Definitely will get out there in the am tomorrow. Happy Thanksgiving!

If no rain, will be out tomorrow Thanksgiving morning hunting for my buck. Come check me out through Sunday.

xDidn't go hunting this a.m. Got my doe so for this weekend I was pretty content. Last night was a full moon, so wasn't sure if a buck would show. Davy Crockett scored two does last night, so we chose to sleep in. Next hunt Wednesday through Thanksgiving. Check me out then.

I'm tellig you from my experience, squirrels are the comedians of the forest.

This evenings view.

In new stand for an evening hunt. It is very narrow. Seen Diablo here last year. Got out so late. We had visitors, the kids were starving. Looking for a buck tonight. Had a great morning. No expectations tonight.

Texas Game Warden said she was 3.5 years old. Had my lucky hat on from last years doe. Also had my non~squeaky bra on. Think that helped!

Lucy and Ethal came into my field at around 6:30. Lucy took a look at me smelled the air, then ran, stopped thn snorted. She decided to leave the plot without stopping to eat. She stopped sideways around 60 yards out. Sited her, then shot at Lucy. She ran crashing through the woods. Searched the woods and found her. It was awesome!

Going over to the processors now. Will get an age on her shortly.

Got her!

Lucy and Ethal arrived from the right. Lucy was spooked. Started running off. Finally 100 yards out, she stopped. I took her. Now let's hope I got her

Okay, voting time. Last day to take a doe in Tyler County is the 28th of this month. This weekend, should I take a doe or wait on the buck? What say you? Please comment on my blog.

Geezum crow, again the feeder almost gave me a heart attack.

In stand. Missed my Mickey Dees. They were closed. Got an awesome sleeve of dried chocolate donuts. That should last me an hour. Weather is perfect. Pitch dark and slightly cool. Here we go.

Follow me  this weekend. Will be hunting all weekend on our property in Colemesneil, Texas.

Going out this weekend for the hunt in Colemesneil, Texas. Don't forget to follow me!

Pulled into the garage last nite. Crockett had bought 7 huge bags of feed to do trial runs for making our own brand of feed for the deer. It was way crazy. I was just looking to buy a bag of peanuts and some apples.

Awesome activity. The oldest doe looked out into the woods and stomped. She moved quickly out of area, then came back. She stomped some more, then wanted to go the way she came in. Took her two does with her,ducked and ran off. Something spooked her. Could put money on it, was that massive buck.

Okay, I am still learning. Crockett (a.k.a., my husband Dave) told me that the coon urine is not to be put on like perfume. A scent pad is usually dipped in it and hung to hide the hunter's scent, or they might put it on the soles of their shoes. Yeah, no thanks.

Voting time-which item is more gross, the coon urine or just the thought of what they might use the toilet paper for. I can think of at least three gross uses for the TP. What say you? Vote now.
