Wow My temp gauge in the truck must be off. It said 97 when I got there and didn't check it when I left, but it was really nice weather when I left.

Are spikes legal in the A-22 Either-Sex?

YES IF....
...the spikes are less than 3" tall.
All the spikes I have seen are around 6" long. The one yesterday is lucky, he was perfect broad side. I wish it was a doe, I'd have some backstraps

97 on top of lagina? no way.

It was 88 at the turnoff and the temp kept dropping as I climbed.

Just drove up there this morning while on duty. Granted, it was 9:30 and warming up, but I only found one vehicle that looked like it was hunting. Go figure, it was right where I hunt, but oh well, what's a man gonna do.....

Not gonna make it tonight, but will hit Palomar on Sunday.......

Like I said I think it needs to get checked. Sometimes its way off to the high side, and others I'm prettty sure its really close.
It's when the truck sits in the dirrect sun for hours, and then I take off, it never seems to drop back down to what the real temp is.

Nobody in my spot?
I just found a new treestand about 300 Yards away from my area. Don't know who it is and I know the regulars that hunt my area(unless one of them just moved to a new trail)

I had the same problem a few years back. Everthing kept coming in when i wasnt there. i tried a diffrent scent technique try spraying vanilla extrac mixed with water over a lot of the brush around your stand do this every time you go out there and spray it on your self while your hunting. It will cover your scent and condition the deer to be used to that smell. I know it sounds like BS but an old timer showed it to me he stated that he does it all the time and that he gets a deer every year. I do it and i have gotten a deer every not always a big one but at least i tagg out. Good luck.
