This is why it is hunting and not killing Chapter 2 on page 2
« on: November 07, 2013, 11:01:00 AM »
I have been sitting a trail that is well used for about a week straight, and seeing lots of does with a couple of spikes thrown in occasionally. This morning, I decided to change locations to see what else was out and about. I have a camera set on the trail that I have been hunting, so I checked it after my morning sit, and this is what I found..
   
   
   
Where he was standing would have given me a 15 yard shot; he hung around for over 10 minutes, according to the camera.
Of course, I didn't see anything that I wanted to shoot where I was this morning; looks like I will be back sitting on my old spot for a while.    :knothead:

Murphy's Law strikes again ....     :archer2:    

That is a dandy buck, good luck get'm ....

You may be in luck since your camera says he won't be there until 11-8, that must be one of those into the future cams ... you could make a fortune with that one.

Oh man, what a nice buck. What a set of brow tines. Ain't that the way it always is?

I feel for you. But, just think what you've got to look forward to. when you see another buck, do you take it or wait for the big guy? I saw a pretty decent 8 point with a doe last night(I was driving) but it didn't come even close to what you have there. Good luck with him.

Sometimes I think it's more like "Guessing" instead of hunting.  Bummer.  But on the bright side that's another day you can hunt.

When it comes to deer stands you gotta love the one your with. It can drive you crazy wondering what's going on under stands you didn't choose to hunt.
