yep, had a spot on a buddy's farm that i had picked out and said we shouldn't hunt it until the pre-rut and rut period, well he hunted it failry recklessly in the early season. I decided, seeing how it wasa natural funnel anyway, to see if it would produce during the prerut and rut and noticed upon 3 sits that they were avoiding me by about 75 yards! so i set in a treestand that we had near the point of this funnelling draw and on the 14th of november shot a monster 11 pointer that is my best buck yet!! if a spot goes cold.....the best bet is to find out, by scouting, where/how they are avoiding that area and set up there, might be a great tactic for ya!
