3 mile hike in? Check.
Big, Nasty marsh behind me? Check.
Acorns SPLAT!in on the palmettos in front of me? Check.
Sun rising behind me? Check.
Back cover that in no way interferes with my shooting? Check.
Stealthy entry and setup? Check.
Fresh mud rubs, scar, rooting, and wallowing activity? Check.
First time I've hunted the area this year? Check.
I think I'm gonna like this tree once the sun comes up. This section of WMA has a pretty good track record. There's something moving around already back in the marsh. Pig? Deer? Bigfeets? Who knows. Time shall tell.
I've got a front row seat to a beautiful sunrise if nothing else, and it's a clear enough nightI can make out the Great Hunter, Orion, while I wait for light. Thermacell is on and there are 2 Gatorades in my pack.
Gosh it's good to be hitting it hard for the first time this year! So blessed my ankle is just about knit back together.
