Today’s guest blog from our friend Danny Myers: My daughter Lexi had reached the point that all of us have reached at some point in our hunting lives. It was several weeks into the season, and she still had not had a deer within bow range.  On top of that the temperatures had been in the upper 80's for the last week or so.  She was frustrated and so was I.  We decided to take a week off and according to the cameras, we didn't miss anything.
