    Just had a button buck and doe feeding 20 yards away. Don’t seem to be phased by the tractors.

    Dan, I TOTALLY feel your pain!! I shot the buck, that resembled your track job, on Friday night at 6:45 pm. We finally found him at 2:45 pm on Sunday. Other than our boys hockey games I was staring at the ground looking for blood. The deer probably logged 1/4 mile in his last attempt to survive. I bet I walked 3 miles back and forth following the blood.
    Congrats on the deer Dan!! I understand the emotional roller coaster all too well!!

    Congratulations Dan and Longdraw.

    I just got all settled in and finally sitting down. Had yi trim few branches and get everything situated in this stand. First time sitting in it. Between the walk in and everything else I'm sweating like a pig so hopefully GW dont stroll by, only orange got on is a hat ha. Was about 50/50 deer hunting amd coyote huntimg there for little bit. Had nice looking coyote stay out about 200 yards for 10 mins. Little to far for 12 gauge. But he's gone now so back to deer I guess.

    Do have some tasty steaks behind me tho. Ha
