That is exciting. Only problem I encountered was driving 2 hrs to scout MD's E. Shore, had deer patterned...and showed up opening day to find 27 others signed in on a 30 max sign up bit of land!
Needless to say, those deer abandoned their "pattern" with all that intrusion. Never saw another hunter ONCE in 2 mos of driving down to watch them come out to feed, etc...
Ouch.
Sure does stir the blood though, doesn't it...especially when they do that prance thing and come closer to see...they learn quick to give that move up around here come the opener! LOL
