    Had a doe start to come out in the wrong spot. Stood just at the edge for a few minutes and turned back in. Didn't blow or stomp but seen her tail go up and bound off. Two others followed suit.


    The luck continues

    Lol i didnt take any pics thismorning suprisingly. Most of the deer i saw were moving from the corn back into the woods about 150yds away. I had the 2 little bucks within 30yds and a couple yearlings within 20yds. saw a buck chasing thismorning too. Just got home, do i smell french toast???

    Yeah it is. My back is to the reservoir which is great, but its been slow. Luckily the woods between the water and me are blocking most of it.

    I had deer around me the whole time I could have killed like 5 deer an a great buck I need to move my stand 20 yds and add 2-3 more sticks. Who ever told that stand placement wouldn't work was right it cost me a good buck

    Did something different this morning. Couple of days ago I did something to my ankle. It's swollen pretty bad and it hurts to walk very far. I decided I'd take my atv to the stand. I can only take a doe now so I thought it would be a good experiment to see if there's any reaction. Had 3 does come in about 45 minutes after I got there. They stopped and looked at it but didn't spook at all. I still don't think I would do it if I was hunting a buck though. Just too much disturbance.

    Blessings........Pastorjim
