    The neighbor to the west is making sure to scare everything in the country with his mediocre rattling every 5-10 minutes :/

    My sons are in a ground blind and I'm in a tree. I'm facing N they're facing S. my son texted me.
    There's a big doe right behind your tree. She turned and left, he couldn't get a shot.

    Well at least I didn't have to sit all day to see a deer, just had a little fork horn go running by with his tail up for some reason, I grunted at him just to see what he would do, he sopped an looked around, then went on his way.

    Not sure what would of had him running, he came from up wind, so doubt he scented me, heard some stuff falling off of trees from where he came from, don't know if it was him or maybe hedgeballs dropping and spooked him.

    Old mamas can be better at busting you then mature bucks, especially if they have been shot at a time or two. Good luck on the track.

    It's is just a odd season, got some places with tons of movement and rutting action, and then some places that are still showing night time movement and no rutting action. Think we are in for a up and down season.
