Hate to hear that DQ, looks like it might be a short trip. Thanks for the heads up. Next week with sustained cold weather may help can't be much slower. I also have lots of yotes, maybe even a buried den under some large boulder type rocks on my western side of property, sure sounds like it predawn.

I know some rattler dens are there so I haven't researched it much.

As far as the coyote situation, we're just covered up with them. Called up & killed 2 last trip out at night. If the deer hunting is slow, we'll hunt all night and sleep all day. As far as the rattlers are concerned, I'm guessing you GAS them out of the dens? Like to see that done just one time. Cold temps can't hurt anything, just hoping the rain holds off, small chance daily next week.

Snake Oil
Hunted this evening shouldn't really count it was 78 when I got in the blind. Killed 3 wasps and a yote. Lots of pig and deer tracks in the mud. No moon and still nocturnal. We'll see what happens with this front. Saw a doe and a buck after dark right at 578 and 183.
Good luck ! Good luck to you Sir.......

Packed my things this morning and headed to Rockwall. In 4 hunts, I managed to see 1 4pt. buck and 2 young doe. I’m somewhat puzzled by this season and the lack of deer movement. In large part, the acorn crop is unlike I’ve ever seen on my place. Upon driving the cart back to the barn this morning, the road was littered with acorns in spots. The problem is they were green acorns and some with caps attached. I personally have never seen edible acorns on the ground this late. Oh well, be back out the last weekend and see if we can make something happen. Good luck to those hunting the rest of the week.

I had the best deer movement I've seen this year Tuesday and Wednesday morning with cold weather. Good luck!

I'll be going out next weekend hopefully get my son one a spike we've seen on camera. Same here not much activity. Strange we had some nice bucks that we let walk last year. One which was seen last day of the season and we didn't see them this year.
