I should employ your tactics more, David. I hunted a 10 acre woodlot this morning.....that I hadn't been in all year. I did EVERYTHING wrong....(forgot: haul line; gloves; mask; dropped my cap from my perch) and still had 5 deer within 20 yds for the morning sit. MY FAULT, completely, I don't have a deer to show for the effort (albeit a lackluster effort). I screwed the pooch 2X, today.....and never took a shot.

Good luck in the coming days.
