It's baseball season!!

A lot of us are going to discount and plain look down on anything someone does for likes/attention.
Well I've heard 3 shots, none closer than half a mile, but that's still better than my past 5 hunts where I heard no shots. Let's go, I'm ready to at least see something! Fog is clearing, I don't plan to be around for sunny and 72.

Up a cedar looking down and past a creek in hardwoods beside a hay field.
Foggy as shite, made the drive in fun. Not sure why I got up this tree 40 minutes before legal shooting time ... But I like the quiet. Heard a freaky owl, some other stuff walking around too

Finally sitting on a clearing way to close to I-65. Too many people in all the spots today, I got nice and sweaty scouting a new area, but it sucked so I just hiked my sweaty arse back out. 2 more spots taken, now at this one I had on my list to try but not in the way I'm currently doing with just 30 minutes before sunset. But who knows. My morning plan is clear, at least. Probably.
Egg casserole, biscuits, bacon. Too hot for the traditional shrimp and corn soup.
We just started season 1, it is eerily so much like companies and people I've worked with over the years. If it gets into lady nonsense drama I'll just let the wife keep on with it.
Gives interviews like an idiot savant.
No chips? I don't think I can fish without Doritos. Never have. I mean, it's gross because I have fish hands and I'm eating chips, but it's not the most gross thing happening on a fishing trip.

Up here I'm going straight from a high of 70 to a high of 35 Monday. I prefer the cold for sure, not I'll get out there Friday or Saturday anyway, probably. Have a damn dentist appointment and people to interview Monday. I need at least one more set of meat in the freezer though, will find a way.
# of occurrences is way lower, yes. But I've shot my 30-06 without hearing protection and been right next to my son shooting the 6.5cm without it, and that sucks. Ears were ringing for 20 minutes, so with it being easy to avoid I'll do my best. Duck hunting it's obviously much more important.
I have left them on and it's fine, but the rib meat always needs more cooking anyway to get all tendered up, so separate makes sense. I will probably do that tomorrow. That way the roast piece is done quicker, has more crust as mentioned, and I can just leave the bones on until I think they are done. It does look cooler with the bones on, but that lasts 10 seconds before I'm popping strings and slicing.

I'm going to get something suppressed eventually, but for now I just roll with the Walker's electronic. I typically just wear them on my head above my ears, ready to pull down if I see something. No way I'm keeping them on all day and listening to the woods electronically. Batteries would die anyway.
I tried Axil and some other in-ear ones, they just don't stay in as I move my head around or even move my jaw. I hope to find some of those but stopped trying after a few just wouldn't stay put.

I feel like we need something about putting the father-in-law on an ant pile and a bucket of gravel for testing out how a gun shoots.

It wasn't for me, less than 6 months total of red meat in general giving me issues. And not all red meat did it, it was weird.

Getting cooler and windy but not bad. Familiar tree but one I haven't been up in a month this season. Some dude rolled in 5 minutes after legal shooting time and then I think he set up within 150 yds of me. Downwind, at least, but come on people. Get out earlier.
What do we think deer do related to barometric pressure? High/low/rising/falling, do they move more or less? Rising here today.

Christmas Eve: some kind of aged cheese as we cook, prime rib, asparagus, then bourbon
Christmas:
-Breakfast my wife makes cinnamon rolls from scratch, starting the night before and rising early
-Lunch our tradition is shrimp and corn soup, but this year with this 70 degree BS we'll delay that to New Year's. Thinking breakfast food for late lunch/earyl dinner, and before that we're going to make soft pretzels (never done this before but it's one of 3 things everyone will eat and the plan is to veg out anyway).

Does Rax roast beef count?
EZ cheese
Oreos for me, because my stupid discipline means I haven't had one in 20 years

I'm an idiot today, just walked around for an hour with my climber. Good workout I guess. But now I'm sitting on my stool with my bipod on a field, camo jacket on the bipod as I makeshift blind, looking at where I hope they'll come out of thick cedars at dusk. I never do this, I prefer to climb trees. But being in the woods has been a bunch of nothing, so here we go, something different. Hope someone out there is getting them!
