Default Ground hunting sucks....

I was going to my stand this afternoon at 3:30pm. As I start through the woods I jump a large deer that just runs out of sight. I make a huge cirlce and hunker down into some tree-tops. I sit there for no more then 30minutes when a deer comes into sight about 30yrds below me. I look around and watch as the deer enters the open timber from the brushy low gap. I get ready for a possible shot as the deer comes into the open. But as I draw back, the tree tops prevent me from coming to full draw. So instead of spooking the deer I had to sit back and watch the deer walk around and browse. After putting the bow back down, and getting my binoculars, the large deer turned out to be a small racked 3pt. Needless to say, the ground is not for me. I'll be back in the tree's with the squacks tomorrow.
