    I take my time and walk real wide to get in here. No visual at all to where I think the bucks are bedded. I got in clean.

    Well just now a darn hunter rides his bike through the middle of the woods breaking every branch. Right to my stand! After I took my time getting in here. Squirrels and birds sending out distress calls. My night is probably not gonna be very good. I park my truck in plain view...this bozo couldn't let his illegally constructed stand near me go.

    Sounds like he needs to be reported and caught in the act, at least get some entertainment out of it.

    Uh oh.

    Since the arrow didn’t pass through maybe you took out an artery in the hindquarter?

    Let's get this public land party.Started right..zero deer seen... guy riding his bike through the middle of the woods... Fifty mosquito bites. I like when this happens because it reminds me of all the hard work I need to put in.

    I’m down. I saw four deer. One fork horn at 20, two unknowns and one really good buck feeding in at last light. By the time he got into bow range I’d lost shooting light.

    I was stuck in my tree for almost a half hour.

    I’m still not sure he was far enough away not to bust out when I sneaked down.

    Oh well.
