Rut is more or less over in Ohio, it seems. Smaller bucks are forming groups and devouring food.

I'm up to 21 for the day. This is #18 she came in with no fawns being followed by 3 - 1.5yr bucks and made the mistake of stopping to sniff my boot tracks from this morning.

Well I was having a nice morning sit in Ohio until some jerkoff came and started pumping the oil wells. The entire forest sounds like industry instead of the peaceful silence of nature.

Is it your land? You can have it written into your lease that no activity can take place during deer season.

No, it's not mine. Things would be very different if it was mine. I can probably talk to my uncle and get it sorted.

I've seen 7 deer so far, but man are they skittish. The pumps shut off an hour ago, and it's amazing what I can hear now.

Back in the box after walking to the house for a couple of bowls of venison stew. I think I'll leave the heater off. Full belly, heat and this hammock chair may have me taking a nap all afternoon. Saw 4 bucks (2 legal) 3 doe and a red fox this morning.

Your uncle probably likes to hear the oil pumps turn on as that's the sound of money! How much money does he make from a well on his property?

 

[Telemark]

I have no idea. Not much, i wouldn't think. But he gets free gas from the well to heat his house and shop.

Back on stand. No wind, no oil pumps, just the serene silence of the forest, occasionally interrupted by squirrels bouncing around and chasing each other. I should do this more often.
