    I dream while I'm asleep and day dream while in stand.

    The day dream in stand is mire of a concentration on one spot trying to will a deer to walk through the opening and make its way towards me.

    I've only had 1 of your bucket list items happen. Every time I sit in my stand I am surrounded by fawns, I had one smell my ladder rungs, walking stick & spot where I had spilled some coffee before bedding down under me for 3 hours. 3 others were milling around, coming in and out of range periodically. I feel like I am hunting over a whitetail daycare center!

    Page just reminded me.

    When I got on stand Saturday, I went to load a bolt. Have to use my phone to see the fletches as my headlamp doesn't distinguish green from white with a green light :lol:

    Anyhow, the one I grabbed had a fletching missing. So loaded the one I shot the buck with Saturday with a fresh broadhead. Both deer with the same shaft, guess I kinda cross contaminated with blood from the first still on the bolt.
