    Shoulda, coulda, yada yada yada

    Aunt just told me on facebook that a 9 pointer was shot in the stand I was going to sit tomorrow morningand likely would have tried to sit today had I went.

    Waiting to see pics if available. I know which stand not to sit in the morning now. Made my decision a bit easier.

    One less hunter to compete with in the morning :lol:

    Always a silver lining.

    No pics of it, could have been a pass by me.

    Still plenty of time out there :lol:

    I have actually never met the neighbor. My aunt was friends with him on facebook and she asked if it was the buck. Didn't think it was at the time, but when I went back down and seen the curling stickers off his brows ai knew it was. She then tagged us in a post and he gave me some cideos and trail cam pics.

    Just had a wall mounter run by at 20 yards chasing a doe. I'm in a box blind and couldn't get a shot. Tried to stop him 4 times (actually yelled).

    Disgusted.

    Actually, he just replied on the comments and said there's some studs in the area for sure.

    He has trail cams out, but didn't post any but I believe him. I may charge up some batteries and put a couple out. See if any change of strategy and some ground sits are in order mid week into the weekend.

    Just hung a stand for my brother-in-law in the rain for tomorrow morning. Rain just stopped after hard storms all day so I jumped in the stand for what I hope could be a productive 2 hours.......if it don't start raining again. Radar looks kinda iffy.

    Blessings............Pastorjim

    Just had a doe freshen up a scrape. Thought she got a wiff of me...nope. she was watching a 2.5 yo buck. He walked 15 yards away from me. Should have been an 8. Think he was a 3. No points remained on left and only part of G3 on right was there.
