I made a ghillie suit last January after the season. I've been so anxious to put it to the test, as well as myself. My first time in Iowa this year I had only 2 hours to hunt before the end of the day. I showered and grabbed my stuff and headed to my land. I slipped down a bluff till I found several converging trails. The bottleneck went under a large blowdown. I nestled in after cutting and trimming a couple shooting lanes and within 20 minutes I had 2 does within 18 yds. They new that bush was new but couldnt identify me as danger and kept right on thru. As the light started to fade, many deer were starting to make their way from the bottoms to the fields above. I ended up with a buck less than 10 yds to my right and back to my left a doe about 5yds. Out of the corner of my eye I could see her blinking, breathing and simply not care I was almost able to grab her. They finally moved away but never smelled me or saw me as danger. Was so cool! I watched as 3-4 more bucks worked up the hill with many more does till they were out of sight. A few minutes go by and I heard something coming. I look to my left just to see 3 coyotes coming down the trail. I missed the first one. Shot a little low. They never saw me, just heard the arrow hit and looked around, then gone. I've had many more stories since. Great for blood pumping excitement! That close and no scent lock clothing.
