I know the feeling. I have been working on both my leases the last couple of weeks and by the time I get home I am soaking wet with sweat. All the so-called experts that say don't sweat and be sent free when you hang your stands before the season don't live in Fl. or South Ga.

It's looking that way. We keep getting these evening thunder showers that just settles the dust and makes it so humid you cant breath.

I went down to the lease today to fill a feeder and hang my loc-on back up and saw 2 bucks still in velvet less than 50 yards from where I normally park my truck and headed straight toward my stand sight. I waited about 45 minutes to give them time to move on before I started hauling the feed in. Carried in one bag, 50lbs, about 300 yrds and was sweatin, like a sinner on judgment day. After putting the 1st bag in and going back to the truck for the second bag there where 3 does standing on the sid of the road about 300yrds toward the gate and only about 50yrds off the main blacktop road. Watched them for 15 or 20 minutes before they wandered off then resumed carrying feed in. 3 more trips back and forth to the truck and I was wet as if I had been swimming. Hopefully it will rain tonight and wash some of my sent out but if not at least its 2 months till bow season starts and I should not have to go back to that area for anything till season opens. Come on cold front.
