It happened to me last night. I was on stand and I heard deer RUNNING down the trail at full speed. I turned to look and there they were stopped at the base of my tree. Clear shot but they were on full alert. They stood there for about five minutes looking around. So I didn't budge. It was the first time I hunted this tree and I didn't want to spoil it. They will be back! Then at dark a 6 point walked by, kinda cool! All in all a good hunt. Remember don't force it! JMO!
