Good luck Ken. As Gene Wensel once related to me when I asked him why he was moving to Iowa was that you need to hunt where they are if you expect to kill them. It's really not much more complicated than that.

Go get em, Ken!  I agree about the stands as well...only one way to "learn" trespassers.

Good luck. Sounds like you've earned a nice spot.  Hope to hear of your 1st trad kill as that gives me hope to do the same.

HOw wonderful it would be to come here and see yer ugly grinning mug with a trad deer!!!

I'd say you're in for a treet! Any deer with trad gear is a trophy... and getting that first one under your belt can be the ice-breaker!

I think you can tell by the number of well-wishes, that many of us wish we could have your dilemma of the MT and no deer seen, or close to home and drop the string!

Pick a spot!

Good luck, Ken, and stay warm.  Might be time to break in that lucky sweater.   :D
