some times all ya can do is laugh!
« on: October 12, 2014, 07:17:00 PM »
hunted 3 nights in a row close to my house from a stand overlooking a back field where i have saw a load of deer over the years. NADDA in 3 nights so decided to give it a rest for a night. on a whim i decided just before dark to take a walk around the fields looking for pheasants. peaked over the little knoll where my stand is in the last field and there stood a nice buck 5 yards in front of my stand! tried to put the sneak on him but got busted at 60 yards......

That's why they call it hunting and not shopping:-) Good luck.

Haha!

I got game cam pics of deer nearly every day and can't get them in front of me when I am hunting.

Worse yet, Is when ya go on your morning hunt and see nothing, And when ya go on the evening hunt ya retrace your steps, And they have deer tracks all over them..

Several times I've went out for 4-5hrs & haven't seen anything except squirrels. I come home & my wife tells me that  a deer (sometimes a buck,sometimes a doe)was browsing at the edge of our lawn 20yds behind our home.

You could try using milkweed fluf to see just where the air is really moving to. Sometimes it can really fool you.
