It's the rut man, just hunt!

Don't worry about anything. I've been halfway up a tree screwing in steps, sweating, cussing and talking to myself only to have a buck walk right by mepaying no mind. The bucks let their guard a little now, so take advantage of it. Hang it and hunt it. Nobody goes up a tree with a climber and waits 24 hours to shoot a deer out of it do they?
Hope your boy gets one!
