Just got approval from the boss to put my 40 hours in before Friday so I can take it off. I'll be heading to the stands for an all day sit.
I am needing your guys opinions though, I have cameras at 2 of my stands where the bulk of the movement has been but I can not see very far from these stands. I have 2 other stands that I can see long distances from including the general locations of my cameras. What do you guys think as far as setting up where I can see more ground to watch for cruising buck or setting up in the close quarter locations and hoping something passes through?

My unexpected visitor!
Well guys, got a chance to get to the proving grounds this past Sun. Checked my cam, i had about 300 pics from 10/13-11/7. About 100 was false shot pics, or crows, coons, etc. Well in those 200 pics, I found "Dasher", the 8pt. buck that I've been seeing off & on for 2 yrs. Guys, here's the spirit killer. Sun., i got a late start on the evening hunt. Before I arrived to the stand location, I scan thru the trees & brush. O' and behold, there at the feeder "Dasher". I stop, kneel, and set up for the shot,... he looks up towards me. Just as i take aim, take the safety off...he dash off into the brush, with his tell waving high...Bye-Bye!

Congrats on some GREAT Bucks. I am sorry I been off line for some time. The season has a long way to go and I plan on getting out in the woods real soon. I am back in the game after some real BS the last few weeks.
