I am getting pretty excited and with the temp so low it should mean a lot of good deer movement opening morning...what do you think?
How is it looking where you hunt?

This is the time when I start getting worried that something is going to throw a wrench into my Opening Day plans. It's not the time you want something major to break and need to be fixed, or end up in a dentist's chair or doctor's office.

I'm in the same boat deerhunter. 38 for the low at our place. I try not to think much about it because it just makes time drag slower. I am already packed up and everything is sitting by the door.

How is it looking where you hunt? X2 I'm getting excited as well. I even took the whole week off so I have an extended opeing weekend. Weather forcast says low 40 most days with one day being 35. Come one Friday.

My wife is out of town and I've got our 9-month son by myself. BY MYSELF, PEOPLE. It's been 1 day and the house already looks like a bomb hit it. I had a bottle of wine for dinner last night.
Just trying to get through this week without a catastrophic disaster. Come friday, I'll get fired up.

i'll probably skip opening day and go out next monday or tuesday.
not that it matters, but my hunts tend to take place during the week rather on sat. or sunday.
fortunatly i'm exactly 1 1/2 hours from the front door to the gate, so quick trips are easy
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Wow, Got up this morning and went to let my dogs out and the chill of the cold damp air hit me and all I can say is it made me want to go back to bed and wake up Friday morning ready to go to the lease...

GLC, start taking vitamin C chewables now to help knock out your cold. After your cold is gone, keep taking them! For the first dose take 1000milligrams to get your system kickstarted, it will probably be two 500mg tablets. Afterwards, only take one chewable per day. Keep yourself hydrated too, drink at least 32 ounces of water each day. Also, I like to take Tylenol Cold/Flu for the aches and pains. You may have to ask for it, however it's not prescription.

This is my first season in an extremely long time and I'm on a good place with some good people. Hunting list; Gun, check Ammo, check food, check beer, check clothes, check I'm good to go! Eddie
