Is it worth sittin in the hardwoods on the way to a field?
could try a spot and stalk since you have so much property with forest...given the weather deer should be moving good...all corn is down in my area...currently in the blind with my buddy heater 94b archery nice and cozy...helping my cuz fill his tag.. anyways got to go almost deer:thirty over here..good luck!Quote:

7 does marching by @ 100 yards tonight...wish I had muzzleloader down here...https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c10794ce60.jpg
Had a nice Doe in front tonight, but I decided that a Doe would walk this week. I agonized over shooting one for the Camp Pole during rifle, so I wasn't go to do it again.
Great day of hunting all in all, the winds died down and I could hear what was happening around me. I sounds like the winds will be back tomorrow.
Morning looks good over here. No snow n light wind n right direction. Almost seems like they've evaporated around here.
I'm in 82a as well. I find they don't move the day after a heavy snow until the next day after when their appetites get to them. I walked a huge bush after a heavy storm and not a track. The next day was a totally different story. They'll be on any food source they have tomorrow. I try to sit near bedding areas in conifers during a heavy snow. Of course what do I know I haven't shot a deer here since I moved here! LOL
Fresh liver and onions tonight mmm good , had a big doe come to me cross wind at [lasured] 157 yards, she stopped and looked as if she was going to head back into the bush, she was about 15 yards out in the field.
As I cannot hunt tomorrow , and don't know what sat. or sun. will bring for weather, took the shot , Savage 10 ML-ll , one shot one kill. a quartering on shot , busted shoulder took out the heart bang , dropped tried to get up and dropped again without a twitch.
It was a " BIG " doe, I could hardly move her around to get her gutted, had to wait for help to load her into the truck.
That's 9 one shot kills with the good ole Savage smokeless/
