The problem is the trees aren't really big enuf for a treestand the way it is. My CRP is set up with a single row of trees every 220 yards, and there are 4 sets of these tree lines there. The 2 bigger bucks stopped pretty much right in the tree line west of me, my stand is facing southwest in the tree. I'm going to try to make a lil bigger shooting lane to my mock scrape, but I don't want to sacrifice what little cover I already have.

I'm going to hit the spot hard in the morning and tomorrow evening again, and I'm not giving up till I tag one of the two bigger deer! I am beating my previous big buck with bow this year, and if it works out and I get a shot at that mid 150s, that will be my largest whitetail to date as long as it scores over 152 3/8", which I am sure it will!
