    I didn't make it out this morning for my first sit of the year. However, I did try my hat at stocking. I looked up and their they were 25 yards away 3 bucks 2 of which were shooters. They were rubbing trees and pushing each other. I made the mistake of grunting and thenaftrr a few minutes I took a couple of steps and some of the deer took off. Not really fast but they did run. The biggest buck was still in the field along with another deer. Hopefully, I didn't just destroy my chances at this location. I don't think they saw me but instead saw movement. What a first day.

    Isis pull back on the big 12 but didn't feel comfortable with all the under growth between us. I'm sure it would have been a clean shot, but when in doubt pull out right?. Or at least that's what my dad used to tell me. Not sure he was talking about deer hunting though.

    When in doubt, whip it out.
