Haven't seen much in the way of road goats for awhile, but this morning, I saw now fewer than a dozen of them (one that was a pretty decent buck) along I-44 between Union and St. Louis. You stick and string guys should get out there and start stickin' 'em.

All I have to say about that is... WORK SUCKS!!!

I'm planning on hunting this evening for an hour or two. I have a spot where a northeast wind will be perfect, and we don't get that very often.

WM, which room in the house would that be?

I'll be across the road, even though I hate having to travel to hunt. It's a hassle.

Yep, I know what you mean...I may go out on the back deck this afternoon in my camo and hunt a little too.

We ran a rollover accident two nights ago and a motorcycle wreck morning before last, both involving deer....and there have been at least 3 others hit that I know of within 10 miles of my office in the last two days....all 5 bucks. They is startin to move some.

Bachelor groups are breaking up. That's bad for me, I had 9 bucks in a group patterned. Hopefully a couple are still around.

Were they moving from the N part of the yard past the swingset to the driveway or were they staying a little closer to their beds with the hot weather...like behind the refigerator on the front porch to the azalea bushes by the garage?

Sounds like i need to check the sight-in on my .22 mag.

Shawn, if my season goes like it's been going so far, I might have to shoot one in the yard this year. I've never done it, but it'll be tempting come late Dec if I haven't connected by then.

Tell me about. I have seen very few deer while I have been on stand, up to this point. Hopefully this cold front and a trip way up North will solve that problem this weekend.

I don't know about the deer, because I wasn't out looking, but on my way home for lunch today I saw 10 times the squirrels I typically see. They must know it is a comin.

I had a whole flock of blackfeet flying south over my house this morning. They were making a heck of a racket. The squirrels were busy too.

MoC, that was not funny. I have more confidence in you than that. Maybe some of them were named Souix.
