Title: still trying
Post by: caleb7mm on September 25, 2012, 09:19:00 PM
to kill a deer from the ground.

and having a blast! sat last night on my "bear" property and saw a giant 6 point and a fawn. The 6 came in from behind me and ate some acorns from a white oak im next too. He walked so close to the blind I could hear him breathing behind me. Never gave me a shot but it was an awesome hunt!

I love it when they're so close you can hear em "talking".  Little bleats and grunts you can't hear at 30 yards, only at 10 or less.  

Sometimes I think they can hear my heart pounding or my breathing getting fast and shallow.

Hell, they probably think I'm no threat, sounding like I'm having a coronary!

I know they can see the steam from my breath when its cold. Sometimes when your downwind and really close and well camoed they still act like they know your there. Thats the only thing I can think that gives you away. Whithin ten yards I have to remind myself to breathe sometimes.

Now You're Talking! I've been at it a long time and have yet to have a "hero pic", but that's just fine.
