First let me say great 'LIL" story.
Me thinks you are too close to the ground to see. Trying to lQQk up at something that was lying down.

Had an encounter right outside my house at first light. Got out of bed, looked out the front door and bingo! Right There They Were..... So I quickly put on my arm guard, shooting glove and Day One hat then slipped out the back door..... No I didn't get a shot but I am glad you weren't there to see me acting like a cat on a 20yd stalk in my PJ bottoms and slippers. :eek:

Mikey, you are the man. I am in awe of your ability to get that close to a deer while stalking. Who knows I might have to slip into some PJs and give it a try sometime.
Congrats my little friend.

Little Woodie sez if you took 2 hrs and 45 minutes, you "Wood" have been in the area she wanted to bed before she arrived there...then you could have ambushed her. Make him another bologna samich...
As long as your having fun Mikey, keep at it. I hope your neighbors didn't see you sneaking out that morning in your pink slippers and thong....

Getting THAT close counts for everything.
A skill few posess.
Becoming an expert shot is far easier, because you can control what happens.
Be brave, and keep on mcgroundstalking!!!!
