RE: Do you know where your going to sit opening morning?

I know where I’m going opening morning (Oct 7 here in VA). Same spot I got a buck last year. I almost always see deer from this stand site; last year I had 8 deer within 15 yards at the same time (which actually made it hard to draw without being seen). It’s in the woods, 3/4ths of the way up a ridge, just above a thickly wooded area just above some CRP fields. It’s a mixed area of trees, bushes and clear spots, where the deer funnel in the morning on their way up from the fields to their bedding areas in the national forest, just behind our property. I was there this past Saturday to clear shooting lanes and saw the biggest buck piles I’ve ever seen…several of them within 20 yards of my stand site. Yep, I know where I’ll be!
