    Ever sit in your stand and think you're in the right place, but maybe facing the wrong way?

    Think I see a fresh rub to my South. Sitting facing NNE'ish. Scrapes are to the WNW and rub posted previously is to the NW. Pretty heavy trail running from N to S and curves SW. Thinking if something comes from that way I may be busted before I see it.

    Just got set up in a tree I hunted a couple of times in Kentucky.

    There's a fresh scrape 10 yards from the tree and the North wind is in my favor. This might be a good thing.

    Ha! You threw me off with the "hunters holy land" comment. Thought maybe you were hunting with Tacklebox this year.
