    Wish I was headed to the stand. Gotta work today, but I'll be in the tree tomorrow.

    Had a doe and fawn come in, followed by a 8 pt that I would have taken. Doe might have picked me off or didn't like the buck but she stomped around then left.

    The buck was just out of range by the time I saw him but he didn't spook. Looked like a 2.5 year old based on the body, not huge but I would have been happy with him. Hope he comes back!

    Ok I get in stand and check in with BH.com and it's still dark. While I'm looking at the phone something snorts really loud to my right, wind is in my favor so I know it's not that. I'm thinking a deer must've saw my phone or something so I put it away. 15 min later, it's still dark, I hear walking from the same place the deer was snorting. Suddenly a deer behind me begins snorting which causes the other deer to begin snorting. I don't know what's happening this morning but there's a whole lotta snortin going on.

    Just had a doe and a small spotted fawn walk by me about 5 times. As much as I want to draw blood I let her walk.....and now they are bedded down 10 ft from my tree.
