Found several 4 leaf and 2-5 leaf clovers in the back yard of a job this week. Is it wrong to ask where they were in the fall?

Headed home today. Got the cabin ready for plumber and electrician. Put about 12 miles of scouting on our feet. Found a few sheds. Was a good trip. Will go back in may and finish everything up on cabin.

Might not seem hunting related however today is Sweet Thang's Birthday. If Momma ain't happy...

Besides cold beer and oysters on the South Coast. Whats not to love?

Wanted to go but circumstances forced a change in plans.

Found what I assume was an under ground cellar while scouting in Missouri. Could be something else. Very old.

Could it be an old mine?

Could it be an old mine?

It’s only about 15’ deep but it could be caved in. I poked my head in but did not crawl in it. This was not far off an old dirt road. It was a good place for an old home place. It was interesting for sure. When we go back I’m gonna ask around about it.

Found something that looked like that in the mountains hunting in the 80s. Looked inside saw several large sacks of what said sugar and about 100 milk jugs. Left in a hurry and never hunted that hollow again

Nothing like that in there but it did cross my mind that it was used for that.

Brother I don't believe in luck at all but put all them in your pocket along with a buckeye and a rabbit foot!

Put out 30lbs of trophy rock this evening along with a 50lb salt lick. Had a sure nuff' grown one cruising through last year hope he comes back none of the neighbors I have talked to said they killed him.
Also saw a Boone a crocket turkey this evening. Question, can I hunt my spot for turkey now that I have put minerals out? I know corn is a no no but am unsure about minerals. Can't imagine turkey wanting any but chickens eat pebbles so there's that.

Just under 2 months until firearm lottery applications will be accepted in Illinois.

Last fall was soybeans. Saw a lot of deer in the fields.

This fall should be corn. Should be even better.

About 6 1/2 months until November if that has any importance to anyone !!!!

Sweet Thang got us tickets to the Rodeo and concert in Athens yesterday. Tried to post LFTRodeo and LFTConcert but since the groups were pretty much for young folks there was plenty of signal but the bandwidth was used up. Rodeo was great. Missed the first band trying to get in the gate after the Rodeo but even though most of the crowd was born in the 90s, or even more recent, and I'm a 64 model I like Hardy. My sig line a few ago "I'm rednecker than you" or maybe it was "Country as Hades"was a quote from 1 of his songs. Designated driver so no "Jack" for me but at least "I didn't wake up on the wrong side of the truck bed this morning " Repost but "Give heaven some Hades" is for my fearless little brother. When we meet on the other side bro. Now you're probably wondering, though I have a tendency to ramble, what this has to do with deer hunting. Well several of his songs mention such. On stage he asked if there were any deer hunters in the crowd before he sang 30-06. See I tied it together. Kids apparently very conservative as well. Said he had wanted to release his song Red as a single this year since its election year. Now as a parting piece of advice I'll borrow a few more words. Do some good stuff, have some fun, take a few chances, make some memories, and live a good life before "they lay you down and they write your name on a rock"
