I got lucky this year and struck some private land down state.Partner went to a stand we set up and got curious after not seeinganything and went to find the trail the deer where using to get to the soy bean field, found that but walking back tothe stand there were 3 does in the open right infront of the stand. too bad for him. I couldn't shot my bow due to some stitches in my hand, this saturday I'll be out. I'll keep you guys posted. I will also be hunting some public land this year as well.
