I am still out there in the woods. I had a mature shooter 8 ptr about 35 yds away from me this morning, better than a 20" inside spread [8D]. I watched himnot move a muscle for 20+minutes as he surveyedan oak flat from a thicket. Eventually, he followed a little 6 ptr out of the area.I still need a doe re theEAB rules. It's not as though I haven't had does in range,passed on an 18 yd shot at a doe this morning as all she presented was a quartering-on look. Also gave a couple of doespasses last week. One doestood 8 yds faciing directly away and never gave me her shoulder - there was little doubt I could have spined her. Another doegave me a 26 yd standing broadside look, but I was sure she was going to come closer - a basket8 ptrshowed up to hassle her, and off she went...

Sounds like you allcould use someluck; I don't have much left, butI'm sending it your way...
