Default RE: Should I hunt tonight???

Taz...that's not funny man!<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> Well, my wife had some meetings at my daughter's school at 7pm that she was going to miss if I went hunting. She was kind of giving me grief about it but was willing to let me go if I really had to. It was probably more important for her to go to the meetings than to sacrifice it for me to be sweating my arse off in a stand with mosquitos buzzing and biting me. I weighed my options and just decided to go out and do some work on some of my other stands and to be back home in time for me wife to leave. While out in the woods, I went by the stand that I was going to hunt that night and I kicked up two deer. It was hard to see but I think it was a doe and a fawn. Then I went and worked on some stands and upon coming to another stand, there were two more deer within 20 yards of that stand. All I could do was just shake my head, cuss a little bit, and tell myself that Sunday (the next day I can get out) is not that far away. I saw lots of new sign. Several new rubs and a couple recent scrapes...which is very early for the scrapes but it's good to see. A nearby neighbor said he had seen a monster buck crossing the road about 1/2 mile from my area last week. Hopefully he will come a little closer. Thanks for the input fellas!! Sorry I don't have a better story to tell you!
