Default RE: Official Team Mail Men (9) thread

I am in Southern illinois now.I lived in moline for about 10 years.I have a friend who grew up in Dubuque.His name is Ryan Kemp.Depending on how old you are you may know him or his family.I cant remember his younger brothers name.But Ryan went on to play tight end in kansas and his brother played college ball for Augstana college in Davenport Iowa.
Since there is a good chance the deer know you may be there I woul set up downwind about 75 yards and let them walk by again.did they walk by down wind to begin with when you were o stand?If so then set up so they wont wind you so easily.You will get one of them.Worst case if they keep using that trail then I would definately set up down wind from it so when the rut rolls around you will be in the right place for the bucks to be traveling just down wind from the does main travel route.Good luck.I have been thinking about trying out my luck in Mn.My folks live in Eden Prairie just west of the Twin Cities.
