RE: odd happenings in the stand
While turkey hunting this past spring, I had a racoon come right in on me. I initially spotted him about 30 yards away, then watched as he moved up the hill towards me. I had my Nova leaning on my right thigh and knee, with a small hickorynut tree at 10:00. As the coon angled towards me, the hickorynut tree blocked him out for the last few feet.Ashe passed behind the tree, I brought the gun up to my shoulder.He came out from behind the tree, and right at me. Needless to say, Iwent home without a gobbler but felt goodknowing there was one less predator raiding turkey nests.
