    Dang does around here are smart! Dang it!! 15yd broad side and she catches me move. Barely! She stared me down for a good 3 min then paced back and forth I couldn't get a draw on her. Whoever thinks a doe can't see that well is full of it. He busted me about 10 min into the whole ordeal.

    Sorry team! I had us 50 at 15 and blew it!

    She bounced about 15yd stopped and walked off slowly. I'll be hunting that spot again in the future.

    Other sightings were raccoon, squirrel and a red fox. I can't believe I haven't hinted this little spot before now!

    Anyone else have any luck?

    Hunt it smart and don't burn it out and it could be your honey hole.

    Yeah I got busted tonight too. Had several big does within 30 and I drew on on at about 15, one of her security team busted me and sounded the alarm from behind me.

    If the wind isn't right, I'm not hunting it. I'm also giving it at least a week before I go back in. Thanks for the reminder!

    Man, I'm shaking like a leaf! Just had a doe and a fawn come in from behind right under me! They walked off to the right and spooked when I stood up! I tried to draw, but they were already walking out of range. That's four deer, one coon, one red fox, and a ton of squirrels I've seen this morning!

    I am tagged out for the season but it is too early to quit. So I am in my deer stand with my rifle waiting for my fainting coyote to visit again.
