Sunday evening a nice 8 pt came out of a standing corn field to check out 5 does that were in a picked corn field. He checked every one of them until he settled on one big doe. Then the chase was on. He chased her all over that field.

Iam headin to the woods tomorrow, I just got off work and have a few days off. Should be there now but Honey do's, and my clothes are muddy and scattered all over the Garage, so iam washing and packing today, for a all day sit tomorrow? Oh ya and its On, Couple buddy's call the station last night, and had 3 diiferent bucks chasing does, and they were Big boys, not the small ones, in a cut Corn field, they thought there was going to be a Fight, But the doe ran them into a thicket and never came back out, Might of been though.....

Spent all day Monday, yesterday morning and evening and this morning and haven't seen a deer. The area I'm hunting is hot but has been dead this week. Starting to get frustrated and thinking I need to change farms.
May try an all day sit Friday and wil be all day sits next week.
