Well I just got back with my son Jared and had 4 doe's and 1 other deer across the field from us which we couldn't make out . I'm holding out on taking my buck first then I'll hammer one of those doe's .
It started raining and I figured we would call it a day early so i could get Jared to school by 10:00 am . I'm going to move my laddter stand into the corner "NEAR" where I'm seeing the deer go into every evening . Seem's like all the deer enter the wood's at this very point ,so if I can put the stand close ,I just may walk out of there with a decent buck this season .
I agree with you BOB Steve need's to take a deer he's comfortable with ,and as I already stated I've made that same mistake and passed on a 130 to 140 class one season only to not see another buck close the rest of the season ,so hopefully he'll conect before the buck's begin to change their pattern .

I'm taking Jared {10 yrs old}out with me again this Sat ,because now he's beginning to feel what I feel about the wood's , I know he love's to see deer and it's really great to see his eye's when he see's a deer in the wood's ,it's also good to have a second pair of eye's .

Good luck guy's and keep the stories coming .
