My father-in-law has a gratus tag and we have always went up to see the grandparents either the first or second weekend of season. I figure I will be bringing my bow and seeing how they will respond. Will be dawning my orange in support of not getting shot. Good luck everyone.

I would assume that almost all hunters with a bow tag will be hunting sometime over the next 16 days. Deer hunters refer to this period as the rut, which enables even the worst hunters to become successful.

Yup, I am bow hunting. Sitting in the trailer out in the pasture now. Just ate and the eyes want to slam shut. Got careless today and scared a nice buck off his scrape. Hardly a hunter around. Got bored and fell asleep in the tree stand. Woke up to something running through the grass. Nope it was a buck working a scrape line. He was working a scrape behind a wall of brush with the sun in my face. I thought there was enough brush to hide my movement. Orange clothing, movement, and the sun on me. If I had been more awake and thinking I would have moved slower.
