That darn wind....I keep my hunting clothes in a plastic barrel with fresh cut golden rod and other plants growing here for a cover scent.I dress up and give it the Robin test sniff.Seems to work most times but not always.
bjrogg:
The first four pictures are from a tree stand in my east fence row. It's in a pine tree I planted about 25 years ago. I'm hoping to get a little time to use I tonight. Took these about a week ago. I should probably trim a few more shooting lanes. I have good cover though.

Pat B:
Beautiful location. I think your pine is a spruce or fir tree. :-\
bjrogg:
Your probably right Pat. I guess I thought spruce and fir where types of pine. I think the AFCS just called them pine trees. They were only about a foot tall when they were planted. It doesn't look like I'm going to get a chance to sit in them tonight.
The next four are from the other night when ylee coyotes showed up. I was just in the edge of the corn waiting for them to come out in the soybeans. No blind or seat even just stood here.

BowEd:
Those beans look like regular soybeans are'nt they?I know you raise edilble ones too right?Looks like good shooting lanes there though.They've just begun a little taking soybeans out here.Letting the corn dry down yet.I think it's really ready though.
Things were a stirring this morning.Lost count how many deer around.Somewhere's of 12 to 15.Had 7 or 8 under the stand within 30' of the tree.Half does and half 2 to 7 point bucks.Almost let loose on the 7.Seen a bigger 8 a ways off and waited on him.Trouble was he found 2 does over by him to chase.Never did get a shot.Better luck next time!!!!
