Sit #15 - An Attempt at Twigs or HighRise

We shot photos at a wedding on Saturday. We were contracted to work until the receiving line after the ceremony. We stuck it out until about 5 minutes to 5pm. We hurried home and got all our stuff together and headed out into the woods trying to get a glimpse of either HighRise or Twigs, the two bucks we've been getting frequent pics of. A few days ago, the forecast said that Saturday would be an east wind. Well, it wasn't. It was blowing from the south, if not southwest at times. Regardless, we climbed up for the 50 minute sit. My hopes were high of at least seeing a deer, but we were not so lucky.
That about ends the season for activity prior to the pre-rut, rut, and post-rut. From here on out the bucks will be acting completely different. Watch the scrapes get opened up and the vehicle/deer collisions increase. Bucks are not chasing does yet, but they're on the move to figure out where the populations are. So the best hunting tip I can give is to find the concentrations of does and spend your time on the perimeter of those bedding areas. I've got some chores to do before I take off down to Red Wing/Rochester this week for some promising bowhunting. I'll try to keep up with each day's events on here in detail.
