    Right at shooting light about 60-80yds away in front of me(20-40yds inside the tree line) I hear crashing/running and about 10 snorts. I started to wonder what spoked it since I have the wind blowing behind me. I give a few grunts and it snorts 2 more times I wait for a while and nothing. So I think it’s walked off. As that small 8p comes in and starts going away to my left I grunt a few times to see his reaction and as I stop I get a few more snorts from in the tree line again. Wait and nothing. I’ve not called for about 15min and just minutes ago I hear several snorts and running/crashing from in the tree line. Something has been in there for over 2hrs but won’t come out. Ive no idea what to try next since every 15min I have done some calling in every different sequence I can think off.

    Just saw a really good buck at about 100yds. He wasn't coming towards me so I blew the call in hopes of changing his direction. It changed his direction all right. He turned and ran back the way he came. He didn't have near the fight in him as the spike I saw earlier that ran towards me when I blew the call.

    He is probably tending a doe... maybe try a snort/wheeze, maybe a light rattle, but if he is tending you are probably at her mercy until she lets him breed her.

    I'm up. Didn't spook anything coming in, did see one down the pond levee hop into the woods. Estrous and wicks fell out of my pocket. Hoping at the truck :lol:

    We'll see what happens
