    decided to head out yesterday afternoon and sit for a few hrs. got out put my bottom two sticks up (thanks to todd's recommendation) and wasnt there for 5 min and a little 6 walked behind me... about 45 min later and doe passing thru! didnt shoot her because was waiting for something behind her, sorry team 18 probably just wants me on the board:lol: to my credit the top of her head was tuffed up a bit and i couldnt really tell if she was a button or not, later the 1/4 cocked tail gave it away! but still no bucks following her invite... come oh about 20 min later i hear something in the reeds in front of me what sounds like a human's gate walking, just loud as ever a skinny rack 8pt! finally, i got to SEE a halfway decient buck:rock: decided to pass, but then he turned and four more antlers show up!!!!:bash: tried everything i could to get him to come in but nothing...aggressive grunts, bleets, rattled. only thing i didnt try was a snort and weez, but please believe friday if he comes by i got something for him:evil:
