Good luck. Hunted this morning as an excuse to be out of the way, but only saw a cpl does and a dink. Wind has them laying down around here. Going to do a coon hunt tonight after driving by the steer pens last night and seeing about 20 of those masked devils in the feed troughs.

A husband went to the sheriff's department to report that his wife was missing:

Husband : - I've lost my wife. She went shopping yesterday and has not come home.

Sergeant : - What is her height ?

Husband: - Gee, I really never noticed. Maybe about five feet tall.

Sergeant : - Build?

Husband: - Not slim, not really fat.

Sergeant : - Color of eyes?

Husband : - Never noticed.

Sergeant : - Color of hair?

Husband : - Changes a couple times a year . .. . maybe red.

Sergeant : - What was she wearing?

Husband: - Could have been a skirt or shorts. I don’t remember exactly.

Sergeant : - Did she go in a car?

Husband : - No, she went in my truck.

Sergeant : - What kind of truck was it?

Husband : - Brand new Ford F150 with Eco-boost V6 engine special ordered with manual transmission. It has a custom matching white cover for the bed. Put on special alloy wheels and off road Michelin's. Wife put a small scratch on the drivers door.……at this point the husband started tearing up and almost cried.

Sergeant: - Don't worry ......We’ll find your truck.

Well not successful today really cold windy and snowing. Saw a nice 6 point in the morning but he was in and out of the field really quick. Try again in the morning. Seen a lot of coyote tracks around so will be on the watch for them

Saw a few smaller bucks on Thanksgiving. 1 I would have shot if he had given me the right opportunity but they never got to where I could get in smoke pole range. Snowing today so tomorrow might be a good day!

Haven't seen anything since friday morning. Temps were in the low twentys fri. Then saturday went from upper 20s to 40 degrees. And then this morning it was 51 outside when we got up at 5am. Weather definately doesn't know what it wants.
