last year during shotgun season i was bored in my stand so i decided to hop out and stalk a little bit (novice stalker,, mainly an excuse to stretch my legs) and not paying attention i walked on a 10 point monster... he stood up (bedded down) and squared up to me and just stared at me and then snorted and started to run away... i belched out a dominant buck call and it stopped him enough to get a bead on him.. no shot b/c it was in heavily wooded thickets and brush..but it was cool to see how communication can work to get the animal to do what you want.. in a sense...

i heard a blow this morning but didnt know where i came from,, i shut my light off and stood extremly still.. 3 doe walked under me 2 hours later...
